These functions may also manipulate the +interpreter result (if they take and are given a non-NULL \fIinterp\fR +argument); you must not count on the interpreter result to hold the reference +count of any argument value over these calls and should manage your own +references there.

Its \fIbasePtr\fR argument follows the rules above for +\fIpathPtr\fR, as do the values in the \fIobjv\fR argument. +.PP +\fBTcl_FSGetTranslatedPath\fR returns a non-zero-reference object (or +NULL in the error case); you must call \fBTcl_DecrRefCount\fR on the +object once you no longer need it. +.PP +\fBTcl_FSNewNativePath\fR always returns a zero-reference object (or +NULL), much like \fBTcl_NewObj\fR. +.PP +\fBTcl_FSFileSystemInfo\fR always returns a zero-reference object (or +NULL), much like \fBTcl_NewObj\fR. +.PP +The \fIobjPtr\fR and \fIobjPtrRef\fR arguments to \fBTcl_FSFileAttrsGet\fR, +\fBTcl_FSFileAttrsSet\fR and \fBTcl_FSFileAttrStrings\fR are conventional Tcl +values; the \fIobjPtr\fR argument will be read but not retained, and the +\fIobjPtrRef\fR argument will have (on success) a zero-reference value written +into it (as with \fBTcl_NewObj\fR). \fBTcl_FSFileAttrsGet\fR and +\fBTcl_FSFileAttrsSet\fR may also manipulate the interpreter result. +.PP +The \fIresultPtr\fR argument to \fBTcl_FSMatchInDirectory\fR will not have its +reference count manipulated, but it should have a reference count of no more +than 1, and should not be the current interpreter result (as the function may +overwrite that on error). +.SS "VIRTUAL FILESYSTEM INTERFACE" +.PP +For all virtual filesystem implementation functions, any \fIpathPtr\fR +arguments should not have their reference counts manipulated.
