[Tclpro-dev] Re: Problem with using TclPro1.5 with an Embedded application (fwd)

[Brent W. <we...@pa...>]

For folks that can build TclPro from sources, it looks like
nub.tcl has some 8.1'isms in there that prevent TclPro from
being used with 8.0 applications.  The "debug nub" is a bit
of code that is injected into the target application.

Brent,

That's not correct.  8.0 accepted a pure 'end', but not
the 'end[+-integer]' form, but there are none of the latter
in nub.tcl.  There was one IIRC, but that was fixed.  The
TclPro 1.5.0.1 that we ship should work fine with 8.0.

To follow up on your particular case, that must be with an
older nub.tcl, because I see that 'string range' is used with
'end' (which is ok in 8.0, but not for 'string index') with
an extra comment to that effect, in the currently nub.tcl.
