Hi,

just some code at starter :

package require atlmkkernel
namespace import atlmkkernel::MkRuntimeC::*
namespace import atlmkkernel::*::*

ends with :

unknown namespace in import pattern "atlmkkernel::*::*"
     while executing
"namespace import atlmkkernel::*::*"

-----------------------------------------

analysis :

1) namespace import atlmkkernel::MkRuntimeC::* is valid,

there is a NS in a NS and the last one has some commands defined

2) the problem is that are MORE than one NS exists.

-> the idea was to use:
-> namespace import atlmkkernel::*::*

to import ALL commands from ALL sub-NS of "atlmkkernel"

3) the "atlmkkernel" has NO command defined BUT has:

-> namespace export "Mk*C"

a pattern on all "sub-NS" BUT this seems to be NOT supported

obvious this is NOT working in TCL.
-> the problem is now that I can#t import all commands without writing down ALL NS import
-> commands individual.

just an info
