Example 5: tclhello

The following example illustrates how to extend the Tcl scripting language built into the AOLserver with your own custom C code.

This example can be found in the examples/c/tclhello directory.

    
    #include "nstcl.h"
    
    /*
     * This code adds a new TCL command named "hello" to the AOLserver.
     * To test this module, add the following to the 
     * [ns\server\server-name\modules] section of your nsd.ini file:
     * tclhello=tclhello.dll   ; or tclhello.so on Unix platforms
     * 
     * You can then run your "hello" command from the /NS/EvalTcl
     * interface provided by the AOLserver.
     */
