Re: [Xotcl] Testing for execution inside object

I need to know if the current procedural context is inside a method (isntproc, proc, whatever) or not.

can you explain in more detail, what the problem is? Note, that one can calls tcl procs from within xotcl methods, one can have evals, uplevels, etc.

What is the best way to do this? I used [self] to check by catching the error, but that doesn't work particularly well if another package happens to define the command [self].

use ::xotcl::self

"self" can be used to check whether the xotcl callstack is non-empty.

without promising to much, a sucommand"ismethod" for "self" retuning 0 or 1 depending whether the current stackframe is an xotcl method should be doable with little effort.
