find(3itcl) [incr Tcl] find(3itcl)
 


NAME

find - search for classes and objects

SYNOPSIS

itcl::find option ?arg arg ...?



 




DESCRIPTION

The find command is used to find classes and objects that are available
  in the current interpreter. Classes and objects are reported first in the
  active namespace, then in all other namespaces in the interpreter.


The option argument determines what action is carried out by the command.
  The legal options (which may be abbreviated) are:


  
find classes ?pattern?

  
Returns a list of [incr Tcl] classes. Classes in the current namespace are
      listed first, followed by classes in all other namespaces in the
      interpreter. If the optional pattern is specified, then the
      reported names are compared using the rules of the " string
      match" command, and only matching names are reported.
    

    If a class resides in the current namespace context, this command reports
      its simple name--without any qualifiers. However, if the pattern
      contains :: qualifiers, or if the class resides in another context,
      this command reports its fully-qualified name. Therefore, you can use the
      following command to obtain a list where all names are
    fully-qualified:






itcl::find classes ::*






  
find objects ?pattern? ?-class className?
    ?-isa  className?

  
Returns a list of [incr Tcl] objects. Objects in the current namespace are
      listed first, followed by objects in all other namespaces in the
      interpreter. If the optional pattern is specified, then the
      reported names are compared using the rules of the " string
      match" command, and only matching names are reported. If the
      optional " -class" parameter is specified, this list is
      restricted to objects whose most-specific class is className. If
      the optional " -isa" parameter is specified, this list is
      further restricted to objects having the given className anywhere
      in their heritage.
    

    If an object resides in the current namespace context, this command reports
      its simple name--without any qualifiers. However, if the pattern
      contains :: qualifiers, or if the object resides in another
      context, this command reports its fully-qualified name. Therefore, you can
      use the following command to obtain a list where all names are
      fully-qualified:






itcl::find objects ::*
