.SH NAME
|
|
Tcl_AllowExceptions \- allow all exceptions in next script evaluation
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.nf
|
|
\fB#include <tcl.h>\fR
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBTcl_AllowExceptions\fR(\fIinterp\fR)
|
|
.SH ARGUMENTS

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
If a script is evaluated at top-level (i.e. no other scripts are
|
|
pending evaluation when the script is invoked), and if the script
|
|
terminates with a completion code other than TCL_OK, TCL_CONTINUE
|
|
or TCL_RETURN, then Tcl normally converts this into a TCL_ERROR
|
|
return with an appropriate message.
|
|
.PP
|
|
However, if \fBTcl_AllowExceptions\fR is invoked immediately before
|
|
calling a procedure such as \fBTcl_Eval\fR, then arbitrary completion
|
|
codes are permitted from the script, and they are returned without
|
|
modification.
|
|
This is useful in cases where the caller can deal with exceptions
|
|
such as TCL_BREAK or TCL_CONTINUE in a meaningful way.
|
|
