The Ports Collection supports parallel installation of
multiple Tcl/Tk versions. Ports
should try to support at least the default
Tcl/Tk version and higher with the
USE_TCL and USE_TK
variables. It is possible to specify the desired version of
tcl with the
WITH_TCL_VER variable.
USE_TCL | The port depends on the
Tcl library (not the
shell). Minimal required version can be specified
with values such as 84+. Individual unsupported
versions can be specified with the
INVALID_TCL_VER variable. |
USE_TCL_BUILD | The port needs Tcl only during the build time. |
USE_TCL_WRAPPER | Ports that require the
Tcl shell and do not
require a specific tclsh version
should use this new variable. The
tclsh wrapper is installed on the
system. The user can specify the desired
tcl shell to use. |
WITH_TCL_VER | User-defined variable that sets the desired Tcl version. |
| Like WITH_TCL_VER, but
per-port. |
USE_TCL_THREADS | Require a threaded build of Tcl/Tk. |
USE_TK | The port depends on the
Tk library (not the wish
shell). Implies USE_TCL with the
same value. For more information see the description
of USE_TCL variable. |
USE_TK_BUILD | Analog to the USE_TCL_BUILD
variable. |
USE_TK_WRAPPER | Analog to the USE_TCL_WRAPPER
variable. |
WITH_TK_VER | Analog to the WITH_TCL_VER
variable and implies WITH_TCL_VER
of the same value. |
A complete list of available variables can be found in
/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.tcl.mk.
