.SH DESCRIPTION
|
| 43 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 44 |
|
|
These procedures convert from strings to integers or double-precision
|
| 45 |
|
|
floating-point values or booleans (represented as 0- or 1-valued
|
| 46 |
|
|
integers). Each of the procedures takes a \fIstring\fR argument,
|
| 47 |
|
|
converts it to an internal form of a particular type, and stores
|
| 48 |
|
|
the converted value at the location indicated by the procedure's
|
| 49 |
|
|
third argument. If all goes well, each of the procedures returns
|
| 50 |
|
|
TCL_OK. If \fIstring\fR doesn't have the proper syntax for the
|
| 51 |
|
|
desired type then TCL_ERROR is returned, an error message is left
|
| 52 |
|
|
in \fIinterp->result\fR, and nothing is stored at *\fIintPtr\fR
|
| 53 |
|
|
or *\fIdoublePtr\fR or *\fIboolPtr\fR.
|
| 54 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 55 |
|
|
\fBTcl_GetInt\fR expects \fIstring\fR to consist of a collection
|
| 56 |
|
|
of integer digits, optionally signed and optionally preceded by
|
| 57 |
|
|
white space. If the first two characters of \fIstring\fR are ``0x''
|
| 58 |
|
|
then \fIstring\fR is expected to be in hexadecimal form; otherwise,
|
| 59 |
|
|
if the first character of \fIstring\fR is ``0'' then \fIstring\fR
|
| 60 |
|
|
is expected to be in octal form; otherwise, \fIstring\fR is
|
| 61 |
|
|
expected to be in decimal form.
|
| 62 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 63 |
|
|
\fBTcl_GetDouble\fR expects \fIstring\fR to consist of a floating-point
|
| 64 |
|
|
number, which is: white space; a sign; a sequence of digits; a
|
| 65 |
|
|
decimal point; a sequence of digits; the letter ``e''; and a
|
| 66 |
|
|
signed decimal exponent. Any of the fields may be omitted, except that
|
| 67 |
|
|
the digits either before or after the decimal point must be present
|
| 68 |
|
|
and if the ``e'' is present then it must be followed by the
|
| 69 |
|
|
exponent number.
|
| 70 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 71 |
|
|
\fBTcl_GetBoolean\fR expects \fIstring\fR to specify a boolean
|
| 72 |
|
|
value. If \fIstring\fR is any of \fB0\fR, \fBfalse\fR,
|
| 73 |
|
|
\fBno\fR, or \fBoff\fR, then \fBTcl_GetBoolean\fR stores a zero
|
| 74 |
|
|
value at \fI*boolPtr\fR.
|
| 75 |
|
|
If \fIstring\fR is any of \fB1\fR, \fBtrue\fR, \fByes\fR, or \fBon\fR,
|
| 76 |
|
|
then 1 is stored at \fI*boolPtr\fR.
|
| 77 |
|
|
Any of these values may be abbreviated, and upper-case spellings
|
| 78 |
|
|
are also acceptable.
