---|
| 27 | .PP |
---|
| 28 | If a script is evaluated at top-level (i.e. no other scripts are |
---|
| 29 | pending evaluation when the script is invoked), and if the script |
---|
| 30 | terminates with a completion code other than \fBTCL_OK\fR, \fBTCL_ERROR\fR |
---|
| 31 | or \fBTCL_RETURN\fR, then Tcl normally converts this into a \fBTCL_ERROR\fR |
---|
| 32 | return with an appropriate message. The particular script |
---|
| 33 | evaluation procedures of Tcl that act in the manner are |
---|
| 34 | \fBTcl_EvalObjEx\fR, \fBTcl_EvalObjv\fR, \fBTcl_Eval\fR, \fBTcl_EvalEx\fR, |
---|
| 35 | \fBTcl_GlobalEval\fR, \fBTcl_GlobalEvalObj\fR, \fBTcl_VarEval\fR and |
---|
| 36 | \fBTcl_VarEvalVA\fR. |
---|
| 37 | .PP |
---|
| 38 | However, if \fBTcl_AllowExceptions\fR is invoked immediately before |
---|
| 39 | calling one of those a procedures, then arbitrary completion |
---|
| 40 | codes are permitted from the script, and they are returned without |
---|
| 41 | modification. |
---|
| 42 | This is useful in cases where the caller can deal with exceptions |
---|
| 43 | such as \fBTCL_BREAK\fR or \fBTCL_CONTINUE\fR in a meaningful way. |
