Foo is a class, Bar is a class, but Foo's actual fully qualified name is ::Foo, so if I wanted an exact search it should be against ::Foo, but will it also match 'Foo' (as desired)?
yes. both commands
Foo info subclass Bar Foo info subclass ::Barreturn "::Bar"
OK, thanks for the clarification. Perhaps this should be made even clearer: in that case it is not acting as a pattern. I mean:
Class Foo
Class Bar -superclass Foo Class FuBar -superclass Foo
I hope that the following returns only one element:
Foo info subclass Bar
Is that correct?
I am using XOTcl 1.2 as that is what comes with OSX Leopard. As a general note, though, I think changes like this which cause backwards compatibility issues should cause the major version number to change, as per Tcl's normal package versioning scheme. Now my scripts will break when I upgrade XOTcl.
