Gustaf and XOTcl list - thank you, and again apologies for polluting your mailing list with this traffic. ActiveState has identified the issue and provided me with a patch.
Thanks, Kurt

Thank you Gustaf. I did open up a thread in their forum, but have not seen any responses yet. It's at:
http://community.activestate.com/node/8750
I'll see if I can find the error handling code that is being called to determine where the issue is.

When everything works from the shell, and it works with Komodo V6 and it does not work with Komodo V7, then it certainly looks like a problem with Komodo V7. We do not have Komodo here, which is a commercial product (most likely with a commercial support). Is the a public visible forum with your discussions, maybe i can get a clue from it... From the snippet below, there seems to be a problem with the error handling (where i see nothing special from the xotcl side).

Running on a Mac, using OSX V10.7.4.
I cannot get XOTcl to load properly with ActiveState Komodo V7. I do not have any problem with V6 of that tool. Also, loading XOTcl into tclsh when invoked from the Terminal works. All three environments (Komodo V7, V6, and Terminal / tclsh) are using the same version of Tcl (8.5) and the same version of XOTcl (1.6.6 - I know, down rev by one release). All three versions point to the same library file: /System/Library/Tcl/8.5/xotcl1.6.6/libxotcl1.6.6.dylib.
Yet, when I attempt to load XOTcl (using package require XOTcl) from Komodo V7, it gets stuck in an infinite loop:
Error in predefined code too many nested evaluations (infinite loop?) while executing "DbgNub_infoCmd exists DbgNub(returnState)" (procedure "catch" line 11) invoked from within "catch {set savedErrorInfo $::errorInfo}" (procedure "::unknown" line 18) invoked from within ... "proc ::xotcl::myproc {args} {linsert $args 0 [::xotcl::self]}" too many nested evaluations (infinite loop?)
I don't believe I have changed any relevant settings.
Any clues?
Thanks, Kurt Stoll
