Re: tclkit and Tcl_SetResult

Hello Avs,

sorry, I don't know why your system crashes. I am eventually not the 
person analysing this. Pleas specify the starkit and tcl version and 
perhaps the download place where you got it from.

Anyway, I program regulary C extensions with starkits on windows.
I would encourage you to use the object interface of TCL.

To return the result I would recomment for a zero-terminated string:

Tcl_Obj * ResultObj;
ResultObj = Tcl_NewStringObj(pStringUtf8, -1);
Tcl_SetObjResult(interp, ResultObj);

Hope this helps,
Harald
