Version: 1.8.1
Description: TCLBridge is a powerful component designed to allow seamless integration
of Tcl/Tk and any ActiveX capable language (such as Visual Basic 6). This
component is fully multi-threaded and thread-safe (each interpreter has
it's own thread). Additionally, full Tcl/Tk stubs support has been added
(build 5000+). This component should work with any version of Tcl/Tk
8.3.2 or higher (including TclPro 1.4.1 or higher). Multiple Tcl
interpreters can be easily created, used, and destroyed. In addition,
there is a simple yet powerful facility that allows Tcl to invoke YOUR
custom ActiveX components. You simply specify the Tcl command name to
add, the instance or progID of the COM object to call, the method name to
call, and the "clientData" (or cookie) you want to receive when called by
the specified Tcl interpreter. In short, Tcl commands are transparently
mapped to COM method calls that you control in a fully reentrant,
thread-safe manner. Command arguments are handled automatically either as
one long string or as separate strings (can be toggled dynamically).
Please see the official web site for more information and complete
documentation [http://www.mistachkin.com/tclbridge/html/index.html]. Also
includes the following:
I. Full Tk support.
II. Stable asynchronous evaluation.
III. Special debugging support, such as the ability to use multiple
debuggers at once, such as Visual Basic and TclPro (a very powerful
combination) and other diagnostic functionality.
IV. TCL2COM, which allows Tcl scripts to utilize any ActiveX object that
supports automation using TCLBridge.
V. TCL2ASP, a prototype component which allows easy integration with
Microsoft IIS using TCLBridge.
VI. VBS2TCL, a prototype component which allows easy integration with
VBScript. Due to the limitations of VBScript (MSKB Q197957),
TCLBridge does not work with VBScript without VBS2TCL.
VII. More features coming soon [http://www.tclbridge.com/]...
