It is designed to have most Prolog functionality expressed at source level with good performance coming from its optimized (Bin)WAM-based runtime system.
A typical run on any OS:
cd bin
java -jar ../lprolog.jar ../lprolog.jar
?-[nrev].
?-go.
?-halt.
On a Mac OS X or Ubuntu, the Java version self-compiles and builds with
build.sh,
creating lprolog.jar and a shell to launch it to be put in your PATH
lprolog.sh
The same should work on any Unix/Linux but (but may need small adaptations depending on command shells for other systems).
add them to lib, then customize the script "to_xjar" to embed them into prolog.jar
Some features:
- reentrant coroutining engines
- heap and symbol garbage collections
- threads
- arbitrary size integers
- 64 bit address space
See directory bin/progs for some typical examples that it can run.
