| Description: |
Based on feedback from users of the Tcl C API, this patch converts the Tcl functions that return pointers into a Tcl_DString back so they once again return (char *), and not (CONST char *). | |||

Logged In: YES user_id=80530 committed to HEAD (8.4a4). Converted back to 8.3 return values: Tcl_DStringAppend, Tcl_DStringAppendElement, Tcl_JoinPath, Tcl_TranslateFileName, Tcl_ExternalToUtfDString, Tcl_UtfToExternalDString, Tcl_UniCharToUtfDString, Tcl_GetCwd, Tcl_WinTCharToUtf, Tcl_WinUtfToTChar, and Tcl_UtfToUniCharDString. hobbs added on 2002-02-08 07:41:40: Logged In: YES user_id=72656 I believe this is a good idea, especially based on one feedback that noted Tcl_DStringSetLength implied that the user should be able to modify the string directly. dgp added on 2002-02-07 03:22:40: File Added - 17372: dstring.patch | |||
