  • TWAPI and TEA?

    One of the useful resources in the Tcl community is the ActiveState teapot repository. It allows Tcl users to easily obtain a copy of a useful extension. Right now, TWAPI is not a part of that repository. When I asked ActiveState about it, I was told that the last time they checked, TWAPI didn't use the TEA build structure. The ActiveState build process depends on TEA to provide a standard...

  • Comment: oratcl test suite nit - orainfo-1.0 test vails

    When I go into tests/defs.tcl and change the -exact 4.5 to 4.6, then the orainfo passes. The other stuff continues to fail - I could send you the output from the test suite if you would like.

  • Comment: oratcl test suite nit - orainfo-1.0 test vails

    Interesting. I indeed did have an Oratcl 4.5 installed. When I moved it so that it would not be found, I now get this error from the oratcl cvs head: $ gmake test LD_LIBRARY_PATH=".:/vol/tclsrcsol/tcl86/tcl/unix:/usr/sfw/lib:/usr/dt/lib:/usr/dt/lib/sdtimage:/usr/openwin/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/ucblib:/cas/lib/sun4:/vol/ora_client/product/10.2.0.2/lib"...

    Platform: sparc solaris 8, Sun C compiler, tcl 8.6 cvs head, oratcl cvs head from today when I ran the gmake test, the above errors continue to be generated. This is with Oracle 10.2.0.4.0.

  • oratcl test suite nit - orainfo-1.0 test vails

    This test was using the Tcl 8.6 CVS head as well as the oratcl CVS head. The code was built on SPARC Solaris 8 using Sun's C compiler as well as Oracle 10.2.0.4.0. ==== orainfo-1.0 orainfo: version FAILED ==== Contents of test case: catch {orainfo version} res set res ---- Result was: 4.5 ---- Result should have been (exact matching): 4.6 ==== orainfo-1.0 FAILED.

  • calendar widget -textvariable does not work both ways

    I tried the following example, based on information from the man page: tclsh8.6 % package require widget::calendar 0.91 % set t [widget::calendar -textvariable ::a .t] unknown subcommand "-textvariable": namespace ::widget::calendar does not export any commands % set t [widget::calendar .t -textvariable ::a] .t % pack .t % set ::a 9/25/2009 9/25/2009 % puts $::a 09/21/2009 % puts...

  • Followup: RE: compatible version of activeTcl with vtcl-1.6

    ActiveState provides a link on their ActiveTcl download page for downloading the old versions of ActiveTcl. HOWEVER, I would encourage you to work with members of the vtcl community to fix it so that it runs with ActiveTcl 8.6 - using the greatest and latest version of Tcl would be preferable.

  • Followup: RE: links not working on home page

    I myself don't see too many links that do not work - the AS400 one doesn't work at all, and the tclets link leads to a page that doesn't look like much if you don't have the tcl plugin installed in your browser. Otherwise, the top of the left had side bar has links that point within the homepage itself. The links at the bottom of the side bar point off into this and the other forums. I...

  • csv.man typos

    There are two minor typos in the csv.man file - the string "spcified" should be "specified" and the string "an representatation" should be "a representation". I am attaching a patch to this report that fixes these two nits.
