Hi,

has TCL the ability to create a FULL-STATIC non delete-able Tcl_Obj

OLD : static POINTER

#define OtRegisterToken(tok) \
static OT_LNG_T tok == NULL; \
if (tok == NULL) { \
tok = Tcl_NewStringObj(#tok,-1); \
Tcl_IncrRefCount(tok); \
} \

NEW : static reference

I would like to have a !! compiler !! initialized Tcl_Obj created OUTSIDE
of the Tcl_Alloc??? stuff

static Tcl_Obj tokRef = Tcl_NewStaticStringObj("my string");

use with "&tokRef" everywhere an "Tcl_Obj*" is required.

analysis
--------

OLD is always a memory leak and it is slower because it is INITIALIZED at runtime AND
an "if" is required for every access to check if INITIALIZATION was done.

NEW : a "never-deleted" tcl-object is allocated OUT OF Tcl_Alloc??? will massive
increase performance.


something to think about.
