Control Command Language Programming the IBTrainer

Control Command Language
The basis for the control language is the C++ interface.
TCL Interface
The entire functionality of the InfiniBand Generator can also be
accessed via a TCL interface. A part of the software installation is a
subnet management agent (SMA) programmed as a TCL script. The
SMA handles all incoming MAD packets and registers the generator
correctly within the InfiniBand network.
Examples
When you create and use a new class object in TCL it you have to follow
the syntax scheme as described in the following table. It is your
responsibility to write a catch handler to handle any errors that may
occur when a TCL script runs. Failure to do this causes the TCL
interpreter to generate an exception.
Table 1 Programming Scheme using TCL
What you intend What the SW does Tcl Syntax
Create a new class object in
TCL. Assigns an object of type
classname
to the variable
var
.
set var [ new_<classname> ?parameter? ]
Use a class method. Assumes that
var
contains an
object of type classname .
<classname>_<methodname> $var ?parameters?
Delete an object of type
classname . Equivalent of
calling the destructor.
Assumes that var contains an
object of type classname.
delete_<classname> $var
Set a property to a specific
value. Properties are defined
in the context of the class in
which they are used. All classes that contain properties
are derived from
IGCObject
which implements the Set() and
Get() functions.
IGCObject_Set $var
$<classname>_<propertyname> <value>
