::pkg::create -name packageName -version packageVersion ?-load filespec? ... ?-source filespec? ...

::pkg::create is a utility procedure that is part of the standard Tcl library.  It is used to create an appropriate package ifneeded command for a given package specification.  It can be used to construct a pkgIndex.tcl file for use with the package mechanism.

The parameters supported are:

-name packageName

This parameter specifies the name of the package.  It is required.

-version packageVersion

This parameter specifies the version of the package.  It is required.

-load filespec

This parameter specifies a binary library that must be loaded with the load command.  filespec is a list with two elements.  The first element is the name of the file to load.  The second, optional element is a list of commands supplied by loading that file.  If the list of procedures is empty or omitted, ::pkg::create will set up the library for direct loading (see pkg_mkIndex).  Any number of -load parameters may be specified.

-source filespec

This parameter is similar to the -load parameter, except that it specifies a Tcl library that must be loaded with the source command.  Any number of -source parameters may be specified.
