| Description: |
The Thread.3 file -- documentation for routines such as Tcl_MutexLock() etc -- includes notice that the tclThreadTest.c file includes script-level facilities to create threads, etc. The Thread package is far more mature now than when that documentation was written. Shouldn't we advertise that now, over some hack entrypoints for the test suite? | |||

Logged In: YES user_id=79902 Applied with thanks. I reworked the manual page for better readability while I was at it; it was a bit much like a list of functions in random order previously. dgp added on 2004-04-26 07:03:37: File Added - 85046: 932527.patch dgp added on 2004-04-26 07:03:36: Logged In: YES user_id=80530 Here's the patch. dgp added on 2004-04-26 03:44:00: Logged In: YES user_id=80530 Got a patch for this, but SF CVS is not cooperating at the moment. :( andreas_kupries added on 2004-04-24 02:44:07: Logged In: YES user_id=75003 I agree as well. Actually IMHO the documentation should have never refered to the test facilities. They are internal, can change at any time, definitely not public. dkf added on 2004-04-13 15:50:48: Logged In: YES user_id=79902 I agree. This is definitely worth changing. | |||
