Declare a procedure with the following enhancements
over regular Tcl "proc
":
- A procedure can be declared as public, private, deprecated, and warn.
- Procedures can be declared with regular positional parameters (where
you pass parameters in the order they were declared), or with named
parameters, where the order doesn't matter because parameter names are
specified explicitly when calling the parameter. Named parameters are
preferred.
- If you use named parameters, you can specify which ones are required, optional,
(including default values), and boolean. See the examples below.
- Positional parameters are always required, unless they provide with a default value,
making them optional. If the parameter follows another positional parameter with a default
value, a default value for it is also required.
- As well as in the original Tcl "
proc
", if the last parameter is called
"args", the proc will accept a variable number of arguments, which will be
assigned to the variable "args" as elements of a list.
- There is now a callback facility. See below.
- The declaration can (and should!) include documentation. This documentation
may contain tags which are parsed for display by the API browser. Some tags are
@param, @return, @error, @see, @author
(probably this should be better documented).
When a parameter is declared as boolean, it creates a variable $param_name_p.
For example: -foo:boolean will create a variable $foo_p.
If the parameter is passed, $foo_p will have value 1. Otherwise,
$foo_p will have value 0.
Boolean named parameters can optionally take a boolean value than can
make your code cleaner. The following example by Michael Cleverly shows why:
If you had a procedure declared as ad_proc foobar {-foo:boolean} { ... },
it could be invoked as foobar -foo, which could yield some code like
the following in your procedure:
if {$flush_p} {
some_proc -flush $key
} else {
some_proc $key
}
However, you could invoke the procedure as foobar -foo=$some_boolean_value
(where some_boolean_value can be 0, 1, t, f, true, false),
which could make your procedure cleaner because you could write instead:
some_proc -flush=$foo_p $key.
With named parameters, the same rule as the Tcl switch statement apply,
meaning that -- marks the end of the parameters. This is important if
your named parameter contains a value of something starting with a "-".
Here's an example with named and positional parameters, and also namespaces (notice the
preferred way of declaring namespaces and namespaced procedures). Ignore the \ in "\@param",
I had to use it so the API browser wouldn't think the parameter docs were for ad_proc
itself:
namespace eval ::foobar {}
ad_proc -public ::foobar::new {
{-oacs_user:boolean}
{-shazam:required}
{-foo}
{-user_id ""}
{pos}
{pos_opt ""}
} {
The documentation for this procedure should have a brief description of the
purpose of the procedure (the WHAT), but most importantly, WHY it does what it
does. One can read the code and see what it does (but it's quicker to see a
description), but one cannot read the mind of the original programmer to find out
what s/he had in mind.
\@author Roberto Mello
\@creation-date 2002-01-21
\@param oacs_user If this user is already an OpenACS user. oacs_user_p is defined
per default as "false", when specified as "true". The parameter is optional.
\@param shazam Magical incantation that calls Captain Marvel. Required parameter.
\@param foo Parameter, which can be omitted. Check with [info exists ...] if was given.
\@param user_id The id for the user to process. Optional with default "".
(api-browser shows the default).
\@param pos Positional parameter. Required, as it does not provide a default value.
\@param pos_opt Positional parameter. Optional with default "".
(api-browser shows the default).
\@return empty list
\@see ::foobar::related_proc
} {
if { $user_id eq "" } {
# Do something if this is not an empty string
}
if { [info exists foo] } {
# Do something if we got a value for "foo"
}
if { $oacs_user_p } {
# Do something if this is an OpenACS user
}
# return empty list anyway...
return [list]
}
(note, most of the info on callbacks here due to leeldn)
You can define callbacks, both generally (which you would do first) and specific
to a particular implementation. The way you do so is:
@param public specifies that the procedure is part of a public API.
@param private specifies that the procedure is package-private.
@param deprecated specifies that the procedure should not be used.
@param warn specifies that the procedure should generate a warning
when invoked (requires that -deprecated also be set)
@param callback the name of the callback contract being defined or
implemented. When this flag is specified, -private
and -public flags are ignored and the resulting
proc will always be private.
@param impl the name of the callback implementation for the specified
contract
@param arg_list the list of switches and positional parameters which can be
provided to the procedure.
@param [doc_string] documentation for the procedure (optional, but greatly desired).
@param body the procedure body. Documentation may be provided for an arbitrary function
by passing the body as a "-".

ad_proc -public ad_arg_parser { allowed_args argv } {
Parses an argument list for a database call (switches at the end).
Switch values are placed in corresponding variable names in the calling
environment.
GN: This function is a hack to overcome shortcomings of argument
parsing at the first place, since the old-style argument parser of
OpenACS does NOT support non-positional arguments after the
positional ones. Since the advent of XOTcl2, this limitation is
gone and just used for installations without XOTcl.... but since
XOTcl is required since many years, this is not an issue anymore.
@param allowed_args a list of allowable switch names.
@param argv a list of command-line options. May end with args
to
indicate that extra values should be tolerated after switches and placed in
the args
list.
@error if the list of command-line options is not valid.

ad_proc -public callback {
-catch:boolean
{-impl *}
callback
args
} {
Invoke the registered callback implementations for the given
callback. The callbacks terminate on error unless -catch
is provided. The value returned by the callback function is
determined by the return codes from the callback implementations.
The callbacks are executed one level below the calling function
so passing arrays to a callback can be done normally via
upvar arrayname $arrayref
The return codes returned from the implementation are treated
as follows:
- return -code ok or "return"
- With a plain return, a nonempty return value will be lappended to
the list of returns from the callback function
- return -code error or "error"
- errors will simply propagate (and no value returned) unless -catch
is specified in which case the callback processing will continue but
no value will be appended to the return list for the implementation
which returned an error.
- return -code return
- Takes the return value if the implementation returning -code return
and returns a one element list with that return value. Note that this means
if you have code which returns
return -code return {x y}
,
you will get {{x y}} as the return value from the callback. This is
done in order to unambiguously distinguish a pair of callbacks returning
x and y respectively from this single callback.
- return -code break
- return the current list of returned values including this implementations
return value if nonempty
- return -code continue
- Continue processing, ignore the return value from this implementation
@param callback the callback name without leading or trailing ::
@param impl invoke a specific implementation rather than all implementations
of the given callback
@param catch if catch specified errors in the callback will be caught, tracebacks
logged as errors to the server log, but other callbacks called and the
list of returns still returned. If not given an error simply is passed
further on.
@param args pass the set of arguments on to each callback
@return list of the returns from each callback that does a normal (nonempty) return

Defines a method for type based dispatch. This method can be
called using ad_call_method
. The first arg to the
method is the target on which the type dispatch happens. Use this
with care.
@param method_name the method name
@param type the type for which this method will be used
@param argblock the argument description block, is passed to ad_proc
@param docblock the documentation block, is passed to ad_proc
@param body the body, is passed to ad_proc

Calls method_name for the type of object_id with object_id as the
first arg, and the remaining args are the remainder of the args to
method_name. Example:
ad_call_method method1 foo bar baz
calls the method1 associated with the type of foo, with foo bar
and baz as the 3 arguments.
@param method_name method name
@param object_id the target, it is the first arg to the method
@param args the remaining arguments
} {

}
ad_proc -deprecated ad_dispatch {

} {
Calls method_name with the type as the first arg, and the remaining args are
the remainder of the args to method_name.
Example: "ad_dispatch method1 foo bar baz" calls the method1 associated with
the type foo, with foo bar and baz as the 3 arguments.
@param method_name method name

@param args the remaining arguments
} {

Tcl supports csh-style tilde substitution. If a filename starts
with a tilde, then the filename will be interpreted as if the
first element is replaced with the location of the home directory
for the given user. If the user does not exist, an exception is
raised. (e.g. [file dirname ~gustafn.foo]).
https://www.tcl-lang.org/man/tcl/TclCmd/filename.htm#M20
This little proc can be used in cases, where (a) the
tilde-substitution is unwanted, and where the "name" argument
(usually the first argument after the subcommand) might contain
user provided values.
