}Lars H: I've been looking for something like this, since I do have a C++ class (source is [1], see [2] for info) whose functionality I think would be interesting to make available to a Tcl program. (I don't understand much of C++ though, so I suppose taking this as a first Tcl extension project isn't a very wise thing to do.) Anyhow, am I correct in suspecting that the above code makes the class so that the Tcl command is created when the object is, and that conversely the object is destroyed when the Tcl command is deleted? If so, how would one implement a Tcl command that (similarly to label, canvas, etc.) creates a new object and its Tcl command?
DG: That's very similar to something I wrote, but I did it as a template: http://tomasoft.cvs.sourceforge.net/tomasoft/cpptcl/TclAdapter.hpp?rev=HEAD&view=auto
and added [Incr Tcl] services: http://tomasoft.cvs.sourceforge.net/tomasoft/cpptcl/ItclAdapter.hpp?rev=HEAD&view=autoThe class to make an adapter for (Stack.hpp):
