-.SH NAME
-Tcl_InitStubs \- initialize the Tcl stubs mechanism
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-\fB#include <tcl.h>\fR
-.sp
-char *
-\fBTcl_InitStubs\fR(\fIinterp, version, exact\fR)
-.SH ARGUMENTS
-.AS Tcl_Interp *interp in
-.AP Tcl_Interp *interp in
-Tcl interpreter handle.
-.AP char *version in
-A version string consisting of one or more decimal numbers
-separated by dots.
-.AP int exact in
-Non-zero means that only the particular version specified by
-\fIversion\fR is acceptable.
-Zero means that versions newer than \fIversion\fR are also
-acceptable as long as they have the same major version number
-as \fIversion\fR.
-.BE
-.SH INTRODUCTION
-.PP
-The Tcl stubs mechanism defines a way to dynamically bind
-extensions to a particular Tcl implementation at run time.
-This provides two significant benefits to Tcl users:
-.IP 1) 5
-Extensions that use the stubs mechanism can be loaded into
-multiple versions of Tcl without being recompiled or
-relinked.
-.IP 2) 5
-Extensions that use the stubs mechanism can be dynamically
-loaded into statically-linked Tcl applications.
-.PP
-The stubs mechanism accomplishes this by exporting function tables
-that define an interface to the Tcl API. The extension then accesses
-the Tcl API through offsets into the function table, so there are no
-direct references to any of the Tcl library's symbols. This
-redirection is transparent to the extension, so an extension writer
-can continue to use all public Tcl functions as documented.
-.PP
-The stubs mechanism requires no changes to applications incorporating
-Tcl interpreters. Only developers creating C-based Tcl extensions
-need to take steps to use the stubs mechanism with their extensions.
-.PP
-Enabling the stubs mechanism for an extension requires the following
-steps:
-.IP 1) 5
-Call \fBTcl_InitStubs\fR in the extension before calling any other
-Tcl functions.
-.IP 2) 5
-Define the USE_TCL_STUBS symbol. Typically, you would include the
--DUSE_TCL_STUBS flag when compiling the extension.
-.IP 3) 5
-Link the extension with the Tcl stubs library instead of the standard
-Tcl library. On Unix platforms, the library name is
-\fIlibtclstub8.1.a\fR; on Windows platforms, the library name is
-\fItclstub81.lib\fR.
-.PP
-If the extension also requires the Tk API, it must also call
-\fBTk_InitStubs\fR to initialize the Tk stubs interface and link
-with the Tk stubs libraries. See the \fBTk_InitStubs\fR page for
-more information.
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBTcl_InitStubs\fR attempts to initialize the stub table pointers
-and ensure that the correct version of Tcl is loaded. In addition
-to an interpreter handle, it accepts as arguments a version number
-and a Boolean flag indicating whether the extension requires
-an exact version match or not. If \fIexact\fR is 0, then the
-extension is indicating that newer versions of Tcl are acceptable
-as long as they have the same major version number as \fIversion\fR;
-non-zero means that only the specified \fIversion\fR is acceptable.
-\fBTcl_InitStubs\fR returns a string containing the actual version
-of Tcl satisfying the request, or NULL if the Tcl version is not
-acceptable, does not support stubs, or any other error condition occurred.
