incr Tcl (commonly stylised as [incr Tcl], and often abbreviated to itcl) is a set of object-oriented extensions for the Tcl programming language. It is widely used among the Tcl community, and is generally regarded as industrial strength [ citation needed]. Its name is a pun on " C++". Itcl implementations exist as both a package that may be dynamically loaded by a Tcl application, as well as an independent standalone language with its own interpreter.
Overview
Features
Namespace support
Itcl allows namespaces to be used for organizing commands and variables.
Example:
package require Itcl
itcl::class Toaster {
variable crumbs 0
method toast {nslices} {
if {$crumbs > 50} {
error "== FIRE! FIRE! =="
}
set crumbs [expr $crumbs+4*$nslices
}
method clean {} {
set crumbs 0
}
}
itcl::class SmartToaster {
inherit Toaster
method toast {nslices} {
if {$crumbs > 40} {
clean
}
return chain $nslices
}
}
set toaster SmartToaster #auto
$toaster toast 2
C code integration
Itcl (like Tcl) has built-in support for the integration of C code into Itcl classes.

- This is a complete reference manual for incr Tcl, covering language fundamentals, OO design issues, overloading, code reuse, multiple inheritance, abstract base classes, and performance issues. Despite its breadth, it follows a tutorial, rather than encyclopedic, approach. This book is out of print as of September 2004.
