The tclread statement loads the TCL command used to activate the program into a variable.
Syntax
tclread var |
Parameter(s)
var |
Variable in which the TCL command used to activate the program is loaded. |
Description
The program must be the program called from TCL. The tclread statement does not work when called from a subroutine or from enter or tcl statements. This statement allows parameters to be passed from TCL to a program directly without processing. Individual parameters can be extracted using the field() function.
NOTE |
This statement is only valid when called from a main program. Calling this statement from a subroutine will return unpredictable results. |
Example(s)
tclread is used to extract the file name and item-ID from the TCL command line. Here is a sample TCL command using the show program:
