SWI-Prolog ChangeLog
====================
VERSION 5.0.0
=============
* ADDED: menu to PLWIN.EXE (the windows normal executable). These menus
can be programmed from Prolog.
* FIXED: make/0 detection of directories to update when using MKINDEX.pl
(reported by Holger Kanwischer).
* ADDED: autoload(Bool) option to load_files/2 to allow external packages
to use the verbose/silent loading of demand-loaded files. Now used for
the pce_autoload/2 declaration.
* FIXED: random/3 in library(quintus). Thanks to Peng Te.
* FIXED: improved type-checking converting code-lists or character-lists
to text. The routine is now also faster, especially if the argument is
not a valid codelist of character list.
* MODIFIED: Renamed write_ln/1 into writeln/1 for better compatibility.
Added write_ln/1 to library(backcomp), so existing code shouldn't be
bothered.
* FIXED: sub_atom(+,-,-,+,-): crash on backtracking. Thanks to Anjo
Anjewierden.
VERSION 4.1.0
=============
* ADDED: statistics/2 to recognise the keys used by Quintus and SICStus,
for improved compatibility.
* ADDED: library(main) for simple #! scripts processing the commandling.
* FIXED: Make file_search_path/2 resolved paths relative to the current
working directory work properly after changing CWD. Reported by Bert
Bredeweg.
* ADDED: working_directory/2 to query/change working directory, providing
better compatibility and a non-hacky way to get the current directory.
* FIXED: Another problems handling `inlined' calls for the new implementation
of call/1. Thanks to Lyosha Ilyukhin.
* FIXED/PORT: Win32 missing cleanupTerm(), some signed/unsigned problems
in debug mode.
* ENHANCED: latex2html to use \label{} following a \*section or \chapter
as base for constructing a filename for that section. Changed manual
sources to give all chapters and sections a label. This gives sections
from the SWI-Prolog HTML manual a more stable URL.
* FIXED: Problem handling `inlined' calls for the new implementation
of call/1. Thanks to Lourens van der Meij.
* FIXED: Printing syntax errors holding ~-characters to avoid problems
with format-special characters. With patch by NIDE Naoyuki. Thanks.
* ADDED: Allow for MKINDEX.pl to control indexing process of library
directories for auto-loading.
* ADDED: call_cleanup/2 and call_cleanup/3.
* ENHANCED: handling of call/1. Instead of doing a full compilation of
the clause the temporary clause now shares terms from the goal and
is stored in the stack-frame itself. In general call/1 will be faster
when used on a term holding control-structures (,/2, ;/2, ->/2, etc)
and does not suffice from getting slower when argument-terms get bigger.
In addition, no unsolicitated copying of terms takes place.
PLEASE TEST AND BE CAREFUL ON PRODUCTION SYSTEMS!!
* FIXED: Stack overflow detection in PL_unify_list() and
PL_unify_functor() on machines without mapped stacks (i.e. using the
stack-shifter).
* FIXED: current_predicate/1 using the pattern A:B/C (i.e. generating
modules). Also added current_predicate/1 to the manual.
Reported by Tolga Konik.
* FIXED: Updated pl-term.c to fit with multi-threaded code as well as
behave properly on PL_cleanup() followed by re-initialisation.
* ENHANCED: Change errors in pl-term.c predicates to raise exceptions
rather then just warning messages.
* PORT: Now decided to allow for unaligned access only on systems where
we *know* it works and is faster then emulating it (Intel x86).
Improved hppa architecture detection. Thanks to Michael Piefel.
* ENHANCED: Better error message on common syntax-error leaving an
extra `,' or `;' before ) or end-of-clause.
* PORT: Improved configure check for non-aligned access on long values.
On the ARM processor such access doesn't result in a crash, but in
incorrect result. With help of Sergio Martinez.
* FIXED: Added overflow test for too many (>32 million) atoms. TBD:
turn into proper exception, but getting a relyable exception from
PL_new_atom() is very difficult. This at least is better than
an uncontrolled crash.
* FIXED: wait_for_input/3 crash if stream-list contains an
non-stream.
* FIXED: Handle "-F base" option in combination with -c file.pl.
Reported by Alok Singh.
* FIXED: configure when readline could not be found. Nide Naoyuki.
* ADDED: "-F base" option to plld, allows for embedding XPCE.
* FIXED: Proper type-check on 1st argument of thread_create/[2,3]
to avoid a low-level error when started with an invalid goal.
VERSION 4.0.11
==============
* PORT: Integrated patches by John Towler, mostly dealing with
building XPCE and the other SWI-Prolog packages on NetBSD. Many
apply to other BSD variations. Thanks!
* FIXED: Many typos and some clarifications in the manual pointed out
by Jack Keel. Thanks!
* FIXED: predicate reference handling when running out of stack. This
could leave the system unstable after an out-of-stack, especially
caused by dynamic code.
* FIXED: Documentation of file_directory_name/2 (Lourens van der
Meij).
* PORT: Deal with missing rl_done declarations from older readline
libraries (Nide Naoyuki).
* FIXED: Language setting for test.pl (Nide Naoyuki).
* FIXED: Check argument domain of random/1 and properly report error.
Spotted by Pablo Lopez.
* FIXED: Avoid absolute_file_name/[2,3] to dig indefinitely for
non-existing paths if there is a recursive definition in the search
paths (Bob Wielinga).
* ADDED: set_prolog_flag(verbose_file_search, true). to make
absolute_file_name/[2,3] print what it is doing.
* FIXED: Avoid crash in concat_atom/2 when called with a list holding
variables (Lourens van de Meij).
* FIXED: avoid using alloca() in recorded terms with many variables. Found
by Lyosha Ilyukhin.
* MODIFIED: current_thread(id, X) to fail silently if id is of the right
type, but the thread doesn't exist. dima@solvo.ru.
* FIXED: library(readutil), read_file_to_terms: option handling and
end-of-file detection.
* FIXED: writef('\\X'), where is is not a digit raised exception. Now
writes \X. Patch by Lyosha Ilyukhin.
* FIXED: report "x, ), y" as syntax error rather then , ')', y. Reported
by Tolga Konik.
* ADDED: installation of dotfiles (Unix Makefile)
* ADDED: edit/1 to include definition for uedit32 (Tolga Konik)
* IMPROVED: edit/1 feedback when calling user editor through shell/2.
* FIXED: Cleanup after exceptions inside the generator of
bagof/setof/findall. Left inconsistent linked-list with possibility
for random crashes on further use of these predicates. Spotted by
Lourens van der Meij.
* ADDED: option lock to open/4, providing simple fcntl() based advisory
locks on files. POSIX only (Windows says it is, but appearently this
isn't true as they don't have fcntl()).
* MAINTAIN: Some improvements to manual generation (Serg Korolyov).
* FIXED: expected type in sub_string/5 (Pierre.Nugues)
VERSION 4.0.10
==============
* FIXED/ENHANCED: Win32: Various issues around installation.
* FIXED: Prefer %HOMEDRIVE%\%HOMEPATH% over %USERPROFILE% for expanding
~ on Windows.
* FIXED: MT version: cleanup mutex after closing a stream. Memory leak
detected by Andrew V. Diatchkov.
* PORT: On machines using FPE rather then IEEE754 math error reporting
supporting the fpsetmask() interface, use this interface to make math
errors IEEE754 compliant. This applies to FreeBSD upto 3.x. Thanks
to NIDE Naoyuki for a clear explanation and fix.
* MODIFIED: Windows. If Prolog was started as <exe> <file.pl> and file.pl
is a script file, change directory to the directory holding the <file.pl>.
This makes starting a script by opening it from the explorer and dragging
a script on plwin.exe behave the same.
* FIXED: Mistake handling script arguments (#!): forgotten string
termination.
* FIXED: "nmake /f makefile.mak DBG=true install" to install .PDB files for
all .EXE and .DLL files making up SWI-Prolog.
* ADDED: Allow single-keystroke selection of edit/1 with upto 10
alternatives.
* PORT: deal with latest libreadline that renamed
filename_completion_function into rl_filename_completion_function.
Thanks to Lourens van der Meij.
* ADDED: edit/1 now merges more specific with more general matches:
matching just a file is overruled by a match on the same file with
a line number. This implies that edit(Pred), where Pred is the
name of a predicate in a file with the same name will immediately
jump to the predicate.
* FIXED: Two more mutex handling problems with patch contributed by
Emerson dos Santos.
* FIXED: with_mutex/2 deadlock, reported by Lyosha.
* ADDED: library(socket): tcp_setopt/2 to set options on sockets.
* FIXED: make library(socket) ready for multi-threaded operation.
* FIXED: plld detection of multi-threaded version. Patch by
Kirill Evstigneev.
* FIXED: wait_for_input/3 to check for input buffered in the Prolog
stream. Reported by Leonid V. Khramov.
* FIXED: profiler/2 not to reset profile statistics. Spotted by
Mike Elston.
* FIXED: <, >, =<, etc to handle user-defined arithmetic functions
properly. Reported by Emerson dos Santos.
* ADDED: library(mime) as part of the clib package for parsing MIME
serialized objects. Requires maildrop development libraries installed.
Currently Unix only.
* MAINTAIN: Added "nmake /f makefile.mak DBG=true" to Windows building
suite to make a version ready for debugging using MSVC. Still to
to: install all .pdb during "nmake /f makefile.mak DBG=true" install.
VERSION 4.0.9
=============
* ADDED: 0.5 second delay after printing an ERROR: line, making error
recovery on fast-scrolling messages easier.
* FIXED: Memory management problems in Windows version introduced
in 4.0.8.
* ADDED: PL_get_char() to accept a 1-character string, so put(" ")
writes a space.
* FIXED: Two-step import/export of predicates with special ordering
of the loading.
* FIXED: While checking the export list of a module, consider imported
predicates defined, even if they have no definition.
* ADDED: The following predicates where added to library(quintus):
compile/1, midstring/[3-6], date/1, subsumes_chk/2.
* ADDED: library(occurs), a Quintus compatible library for subterm
relations.
* ADDED: library(ordsets), a very partial implementation of this
Quintus compatible library.
* FIXED: compilation of pl-load.c on MacOS X (Paulo Moura).
* ADDED: library(qpforeign) to load Quintus foreign code.
VERSION 4.0.8
=============
* FIXED: Guitracer not closing a stream when tracing decompiled
(e.g. dynamic) code.
* PORT/ADDED: Started moving the trouble of compiling and linking
foreign packages into plld. It now supports the following to
generate x.so, x.dll, ... from the given object files.
plld -shared -o x object-file ...
* PORT: Lots of stuff to make SWI-Prolog compile under Cygwin, the
open source POSIX layer for Windows. Added README.cygwin for
details.
VERSION 4.0.7
=============
* FIXED: stream_property/2 to report close_on_abort. Was documented,
but not implemented ...
* ADDED: Informational print message when abort closes a stream.
* ADDED: close_hook to IOSTREAM to allow setting a foreign hook on the
closure of any stream
* ADDED: library(memfile) to the package clib providing streams to
memory-buffers.
* ADDED: library(cgi) from package clib is now standard part of the
Windows distribution.
* ADDED: stream_property/2 and set_stream/2 set and query the buffer mode
of existing streams. Also added eof_action(Action) and
close_on_abort(Bool) to set_stream/2.
* MODIFIED: The sequence X=!, X doesn't cut any longer as this was
in conflict with the ISO standard (Bart Demoen).
* FIXED: Memory leak when an exception is thrown from the generator
of findall/3, bagof/3 or setof/3. Reported by Bart Demoen.
* FIXED: Possible infinite loop looking for attached state. Spotted with
fix by Nide Naoyuki. Thanks!
* PORT: Added various issues to make SWI-Prolog compile on BeOS. Thanks
to Axel Doerfler.
* FIXED: Make plld using -lplmt if prolog is multi-threading. Reported
by Sergey Tikhonov.
* ADDED: Documentation for library(check), library(registry),
library(netscape) and library(url).
* ADDED: library(readutil) with some utility predicates to read larger
units from streams and files. Started structured documentation of
the library in the SWI-Prolog reference manual.
* ADDED: simple/1 to quintus compatibility library. Also exported some
more of the predicate-based arithmetic from there.
* ADDED: Notes on slight but useful difference between ISO and SWI
exception-handling to the manual of throw/1. Thanks to Bart Demoen.
* ENHANCED/FIXED: expand_file_name/2. Problems when expanding to files
holding wildcards in their name and removing the limit on matching files
(was 1024). Completely re-written the filesystem code. Pattern-matching
code is retained.
* FIXED: include/1, reported by Sebastian Sardina. Bug introduced in
4.0.4.
VERSION 4.0.6
=============
* PORT: Fixed PL_unify_term() and calls to distinguish between int and
long. User foreign-code that must be portable to 64-bit should verify
their calls.
* PORT: Fixed string-handling on 64-bit platforms. Made the compilation
of all tools and standard libraries fairly clean on the INTEL Itanium
(Merced) processor using gcc and Linux. Thanks to the SuSE team for
providing access to their hardware.
Make all default stack-limits a factor of the word-length
* PORT: Included some patches from the SuSE team.
* ENHANCED: MT-Version: install libpl.a as libplmt.a for the
multi-threaded version.
* FIXED: MT-Version: open xterm for thread on systems using the
/dev/pts filesystem. On these terminals the xterm is started
using <basename of slave>/<descriptor>
* FIXED: MT-Version: deadlock and corruption problem. Modified
mutex-structure slightly, so new problems may have been be
introduced.
VERSION 4.0.5
=============
* FIXED: Actually make re-hashing predicates work. This bug causes
large (dynamic) predicates that are queried while they are build
to show linear rather than constant-time access behaviour. Performance
difference on victim programs can be dramatic!
* ENHANCED: GNU-readline interface. Detect useful additions from readline
4.2, avoid type-conflicts and handle re-entrance through XPCE much more
cleanly as well as aborts.
* PORT: Many C-compiler warnings, making the native IRIX cc compile
SWI-Prolog silently. Improved detection of wait() variations.
Thanks to Jean Wang for providing me with access to their machine.
* ENHANCED: Handling of prolog_edit:select_location/3. Enhancement
exploited by XPCE to use GUI-based selection if running from GUI.
* ADDED: -s file to load a script-file in addition to the user
initialisation file.
* ADDED: -q commandline option to make the system operate silently.
* ADDED: PrologScript support using #!, providing direct scripting
in Unix and additional parameters on MS-Windows.
* FIXED: Wipe the anonymous clauses for meta-calling on $dcall/1 as
soon as possible. Reported by Stefan Mueller.
* ADDED: Save home in saved-state for class development and kernel. This
enables saved-states to find the installed SWI-Prolog. Especially
useful for Windows.
* ADDED: Save default stack limits in the Windows registry and add a
menu item to the manpce/0 File/Edit Preferences menu to manage these
registry settings.
VERSION 4.0.4
=============
* FIXED: Problem in GUI tracer tracing predicates loaded from ?- [user].
* MODIFIED: The file-reading predicates (consult, use_module, load_files,
etc.) no longer change current input to the file loaded. This implies
that read/1 and friends read from the current input before the load
predicate was started rather then the file we are loading from.
* FIXED: Setting break-points on facts, or in general on the last
(I_EXIT or I_EXITFACT) instruction of a clause.
VERSION 4.0.3
=============
* ADDED: New hooking system for help/0, help/1 and apropos/1.
* FIXED: Allow for -f "c:\..." in Windows.
* ENHANCED: Moved boot/listing.pl to the library, reducing the
footprint and startup time. Also modernised the code a bit,
allow for hooks, so listing(class->method) lists an XPCE method
and allow for partial listing: listing(foo(a, _)) to get only
the clauses for which a unifies to the first argument.
* FIXED: tracer not to trap cut-port in system predicates (GUI).
* FIXED: Atom-GC problem: global options structured used pointers
to string of unlocked atoms.
* ENHANCED: the GUI debugger. Too much to name it here.
* INTERNAL: Moved message-activation of spy and nospy predicates to
foreign-code to make sure it gets always called.
* FIXED: Bug in recorded database, reported by Michael Heerdegen.
* FIXED: Removed trace of rl_add_history()
* FIXED: Handling of :- dynamic Module:Name/Arity in PceEmacs
cross-referencer.
* FIXED: Cleanup of code for setting break-points. Make this code
work again from PceEmacs.
* ENHANCED: prolog_to_os_filename(-Pl, +Os) to convert 8+3 filenames
to long filenames.
* ENHANCED: Allow setting spy-point from PceEmacs.
* CLEANUP: Replace some more warnings with exceptions.
* ENHANCED: library(url) for breaking down and constructing URL strings
with some new functionality. Additions by Lukas Faulstich. Also
fixed a dangling choice-point in decoding a www-encoded string.
* ENHANCED: Moved tty_size/2 from library(tty) to built-in, exploiting IOCTL
calls to fetch the terminal size when available. This make tty_size/2
return the actual values rather than constant values from the moment of
startup. Reported by Robert van Engelen.
VERSION 4.0.2
=============
* FIXED: Memory leak in PL_get_chars() using CVT_WRITE. Reported by
Marcin Golebski.
* INSTALL: export CIFLAGS=/path/to/local/include should now be
honoured correctly by configure (Lukas Faulstich)
* FIXED: absolute_file_name/3 not to trust its cache.
* ADDED: callable/1 for better compatibility.
* FIXED: $qlf_info/4 to request information on QLF files. Also turned
a couple of common warnings into proper exceptions.
* FIXED: Avoid the usage of the appearently badly supported Win32 function
GetFileInformationByHandle(), now using GetFileSize(). This fixes some
false-alarm about not being able to find the system resources.
* REMOVED: ed/1, also from the backward compatibility module. Edit/1
is the generic editing front-end.
* FIXED: writeq(a(b,c,(d,e))), reported by Joachim Katzer.
* FIXED: Memory leak in expand_file_name/2. Reported by Daniel Cote.
* FIXED: Print error-locations in files holding the ~-character.
Thanks to Mike Maxwell.

the XPCE subsystem.
* ADDED: Skeleton dotfiles for both Prolog and XPCE to the dotfiles
directory.
* FIXED: plrc utility for modifying archives. Thanks to Lourens
van der Meij.
* FIXED: ANSI-C incompatibility, breaking compilation using AIX cc
(Sterling Smith).
* FIXED: end_of_file issues in readln/[1,2,5] (library(readln)) and
modernised the code a bit.
* FIXED: Write out-of-range floating point numbers properly (Bart Demoen).
VERSION 4.0.0
=============
* ADDED: Integrated generally useful packages and the now Open source
XPCE GUI toolkit into the source and binary distribution.
* ADDED: Integrated NMAKE makefiles for building on MS-Windows. Requires
Windows-NT or 2000 to build, but result works on all Win32 platforms.
* FIXED: Instantiation problems in source_file/2, reported by
Richard O'Keefe.
* FIXED/MODIFIED: DDE Server (Windows) returns data as atom instead of
list of character codes. It treads the data as a 0-terminated string.
VERSION 3.4.5
=============
* FIXED: missing ports in the tracer when the choicepoint is pruned by
a cut.
* FIXED: reference-counting problem in exit(Block, Return). Thanks
to Robert van Engelen.
* FIXED: arithmetic to detect overflow of negative floats properly
(Richard O'Keefe).
* FIXED: MT-Version: allow calling utility threads/0 from an exit
hook. Improve error message when joining `myself'. Reported by
Andrew V. Diatchkov.
* FIXED: Don't save prolog_flag `argv'. Reported by Mark Staples.
* FIXED: MT-Version: wrong saving of undo information in
run_thread_exit_hooks(), causing a crash when a GC happens inside the
execution of an exit hook. Reported by Andrew V. Diatchkov.
* FIXED: Predicate reference-count problem trapping an undefined
procedure. Thanks to Radek Marik.
* FIXED: Some path problems installing Unix runtime environment.
Thanks to Lourens van der Meij.
VERSION 3.4.4
=============
* PORT: Fixed some compiler warnings for SunSoft C-compiler. Still
quite some left, but at least it now compiles. Thanks to
Richard O'Keefe.
* FIXED: memory stream-size if no output was written. Fixes sformat
and swrite calls not producing output. Thanks to Daniel Cote.
* FIXED: MT version: deadlock in append/1 and tell/1. Thanks to
Andrew Diatchkov.
* FIXED: Stop profiler in PL_cleanup(). Reported by Lourens van der Meij.
* PORT: added MacOS X required sys/malloc.h to files from rc directory.
* FIXED: compile ! in x :- (!, y -> z) to C_LCUT rather then C_CUT.
VERSION 3.4.3
=============
* FIXED: Quoted write issues around the ,. Thanks to Jan Echternach.
* PORT: Added __unix__ definition for __APPLE__ in pl-incl.h, fixing
one of the problems on MacOS X Public Beta. Also allowed for sys/malloc.h
rather then malloc.h. Thanks to Paulo Moura.
* ADDED: concat_atom/3 to work the other way around:
concat_atom(X, -, 'aap-noot-mies') --> X = [aap, noot, mies]
* ADDED: Calling PL_halt(2) on SIGHUP, forcing halt handlers to run.
* FIXED: Properly throw exception when compiling arithmetic with
unbound (but not anonymous) variable. Reported by Leo (leo@solvo.ru)
VERSION 3.4.2
=============
* FIXED: More AIX autoconf and Makefile trouble.
* FIXED: erase/1 test for clause or record. Bug introduced with the
addition of PL_record_external(). Found by Uwe Lesta. Thanks.
VERSION 3.4.2-beta-1
====================
* FIXED: open_shared_object() to raise exception instead of old printing
message and trapping the tracer. Reported by Leo (leo@solvo.ru).
* PORTABILITY: Autoconf to produce suitable linking options for AIX.
Tested on AIX 4.3.3. Also a change in the Makefile to produce a correct
SWI-Exports file in the include directory.
* FIXED: handling operators of type yfy. Reported by Johann Schumann.
* FIXED: Terminal control for raw-mode (OpenBSD, patch by Kamo Hiroyasu).
Actually a bug in OpenBSD 2.5, but the patch probably won't hurt
other systems.
* FIXED: PL_get_nchars(), used when casting Prolog-terms to char *
using the C++ interface. Spotted by Sebastien Devaux.
* FIXED: library(url), www_form_encode/2, decoding %OD%OA
* FIXED: Honour fileerrors/2 to supress errors on file-operations.
VERSION 3.4.1
=============
* FIXED: Serious redesign of the plwin.exe interaction window. Should
fix the Windows 95 and 98 crash problems while exiting Prolog.
* ADDED: PL_cleanup(): Run all cleanup hooks but do not terminate the
process. This fixed various memory leaking problems.
* IMPROVED: GC policy to try a few garbage collections just before
running out of stack.
* FIXED: abort to enable tail-recursion optimisation.
* FIXED: Handling PL_throw() exceptions during inlined foreign calls.
* MODIFIED: expand_term/2 doesn't call rules anymore if the argument is
unbound. This should make error recovery a bit more elegant.
* FIXED: MT-version: do not handle keyboard interrupt except for the
main thread.
* FIXED: Garbage collection to restore signal mask properly if foreign
code plays around with the signal mask.
* FIXED: MT-version: Avoid assertion failure in running subthreads
on halt.
* FIXED: MT-version: Avoid deadlock when closing files on halt.
* ADDED: Check for interrupts in backtracking code to allow interrupting
some tight loops (repeat, fail) in Windows and thread_signal/2 to these
in the MT version.
<Released as w32pl340.exe, using #2 in title of installation>
* INSTALLATION: Win32: Removed local copy of msvcrt.dll and perform
version control installing msvcrt.dll globally.
* ADDED: Win32 to check for interrupts while doing atom-completion,
allowing for interrupt using Control-C.
* FIXED: Bug in `retry' at an exception port, sometimes throwing an
assertion failure.
VERSION 3.4.0
=============
* FIXED/MODIFIED: argument order of select/3 to be according to the
de-facto standard: select(Elem, List, Rest). Please check your code,
this change is INCOMPATIBLE and does not raise a runtime error.
* UPDATED: README (home page and GNU-Emacs section), manual (GNU-Emacs)
and man/Makefile (some comments on building the documentation). Thanks
to Sam Steels.
* IMPROVED: Path presentation of edit/1.
* FIXED: Win32 notion of `home' to use <currentdrive>:/ instead of just
/, avoiding some trouble in pl-os.c
* PORTABILITY: Replaced all references to #ifdef unix with #ifdef __unix__
to avoid warnings by the latest BSD release on old-fashioned use of
the unix macro.
* FIXED: Call dieIO() before detaching loaded foreign libraries as the
file-handlers may be defined in foreign code.
* FIXED: abolish on running predicates. Thanks to Andrew V. Diatchkov.
* FIXED: at_end_of_stream/[0,1] to succeed if the next character to
read is end-of-file. Thanks to Daniel Cote.
* FIXED: Subframes when handling an exception themselves don't catch
exceptions.
* FIXED: read_term/2 subterm_positions option to return a variable
in some awkward situations.
VERSION 3.3.10
==============
* FIXED: Crash in exception-handling while running in debug mode.
* FIXED: GC bug related to destructive assignment in setarg/3 and GC
bug related to new choicepoint handling (since 3.3.6). Thanks to
Gertjan van Noord for reporting and providing access to their
Dec Alpha for tracking down the problem.
* ADDED: plld: if the default linker is the C-compiler and there are
C++ files, make the default linker the C++ compiler.
* ADDED: PL_same_compound() to test whether two compound terms are
the same term.
* MODIFIED: deleted the export of Quintus compatible statistics/2,
so this can now only be accessed as quintus:statistics(Key, Value).
* MODIFIED: Moved gensym/2 into the library(gensym) to avoid export
redefinition.
* FIXED: When using both local and global term_expansion/2
or goal_expansion/2 the local rule was tried twice and the
global not at all.
* FIXED: Handling multiple errors in compilation (exception
handling on load_files/2).
* FIXED: Added exceptions to export. Don't allow exporting
built-in predicates. Thanks to Nicos Angelopoulos.
* FIXED: Center alignment in writef (thanks to Lyosha Ilyukhin).
VERSION 3.3.9
=============
* FIXED: Install boot.prc (the default Prolog bootfile) as
boot<wordlength>.prc, so the Prolog home directory can be
shared between machines with different wordlength.
Thanks to David Starks-Browning.
* FIXED: Garbage collector bug. Only relevant for people using
the non-standard setarg/3 predicate (trail was marked after
choicepoint stack, causing unwanted early-reset of
trail-references). Thanks to Rolf Socher.
* FIXED: Problem in tail-recursion optimisation when using the
source debugger (or actually the prolog_event_hook/1 callback
used by the source debugger).
* FIXED: Depth-limit handling in write_term for the head of a list.
Thanks to Lyosha Ilyukhin.
* FIXED: qsave_program/2: Saving the unknown flag. Thanks to
Robert van Engelen.
* FIXED: Translation of negation in DCG rules (Stefan Berghofer)
* ADDED: Glossary of terms to the manual.
* ISO: Use exceptions for errors on length/2 and sort/2.
* FIXED: hash_term/2 for floating point numbers on machines where
sizeof(double) != sizeof(long)*2;
* ADDED: Prolog flag `abort_with_exception' to choose between abort
using exceptions and forced abort.
* FIXED: Configure to disallow non-aligned memory access on the alpha,
(OSF/1), even as this just causes a message being printed. Thanks
to Gernot Salzer.
VERSION 3.3.8
=============
* FIXED: exception-handling problem.
* MODIFIED: Run at_halt/1 hooks in *reverse* order of registration. This
behaviour makes scheduling hooks generally easier and is more consistent
to (for example) POSIX atexit(). Also properly handle exceptions from
at_halt/1 hooks.
* FIXED: Handling 0-bytes in sub_atom/5 and sub_string/5. Thanks to
Mike Elston.
* FIXED: Added initialisation for LC_CTYPE locale used by char_type/2 and
code_type/2.
* FIXED: Memory leaking in $write_on_string, used by swritef and sformat.
With help from Paul Sephton, who pointed the exact problem in the C-code.
VERSION 3.3.7
=============
* FIXED: \+ (true, !, fail): ! cutted local choice-point created by
\+ (same for if->then;else). Thanks to Pierre Nugues.
* FIXED: VM listing for the C_LCUT instruction.
* MODIFIED: Syntax error exceptions on file-realated streams are now
reported as error(syntax_error(Message), file(File, Line, CharNo)).
(reported by Robert van Engelen, who concluded that getting character
offset was no longer supported).
* ADDED: on_signal/3 to report foreign-functions bound using PL_signal().
* FIXED: current_signal/3.
* ADDED: PL_new_atom_nchars() and PL_get_atom_nchars() to create and query
atoms using length/chars notation rather than 0-terminated strings.
* ADDED: use expand_file_name/1 in load_files/2, underlying all consult
and compile predicates. This allows for ?- ['~/.foo'].
* ADDED: PL_record_external() Experimental recorded-database support
providing records that are independent from the SWI-Prolog symbol-table
and thus can be stored in external databases.
* FIXED: Position handling with \r in a format/2 format spec.
* FIXED: Deal properly with 0-bytes in the format string for format/[2,3].
Still a bug: format('~t~w~72|~n', [ 'hello\0\world' ]) (write arguments
with `pending rubber' holding 0-bytes).
* FIXED: Deal properly with 0-characters in QLF files and saved-states.
Reported by Mike Elston.
* FIXED: Doc says PL_get_string_chars(), Impl PL_get_string(). Fixed
in the impl. using a macro. Thanks to Nicos Angelopoulo.
VERSION 3.3.6#2
===============
* WIN32: Switched back to MSVC 5.0 as 5.0 cannot read the .lib files of
6.0.
* FIXED: get_char/[1,2] and friends to return end_of_file rather then
'\255'.
VERSION 3.3.6
=============
* FIXED: read, etc. not to raise an exception if the argument is
instantiated (reported by Mike Elston).
* ADDED: make_directory/1 and delete_directory/1.
* (RE)ADDED: library(gensym) providing reset_gensym/[0,1]
* FIXED: discarding the choice-point of current_op/3 could
lead to an infinite loop.
* FIXED: Data alignment problem in recorded database on machines
with sizeof(int) != sizeof(long) (Alpha). Thanks to Christian
Zuckschwerdt.
* FIXED: Data inconsistency causing GC to crash. Notably applicable
to 32-bit RISC machines (SPARC for example). Thanks to Lourens
van der Meij.
* FIXED: clause/2 to deal properly with imported clauses (fixes
listing of imported predicates).
* FIXED: Clauses-index handling in loading .qlf files as well as
honouring reindex requests on running predicates. Thanks to
Lourens van der Meij.
* FIXED: -DALLOC_DEBUG to function properly again.
* FIXED: Initialisation of functorDef->flags for builtin functors.
Symptom: reported undefined on $throw, $apply, etc.
* INTERNAL: Introduced explicit choice-points on the environment
stack. The design of the VM interpreter has been simplified a
lot by this change. Deterministic code is a little faster,
non-deterministic code a little slower and compiled ccntrol
structures (;, ->, \+) are a lot faster.
<available as V3_3_5 from the CVS repository>
* FIXED: plwin.exe ... -- file.pl. Thanks to Lourens van der Meij.
* MODIFIED: close/1 works as close(Stream, [force(true)]) if the
stream has an error condition when starting the close.
* MODIFIED: Replaced warning on atom_prefix/2 with exception.
* FIXED: Sflush() to return 0 rather then the number of characters
written on success.
* ADDED: Messages for new error(limit_exceeded(Limit, Max), _) and
error(goal_failed(Goal), _).
* FIXED: Proper reporting of I/O errors reading/writing streams.
* FIXED: writeq to handle | as a solo-char and avoid extra space
between multiple '('.
* FIXED: code_type(97, to_lower(97)) failed. Reported by Joachim Katzer.
Also fixed code_type(L, lower(U)), to non-deterministically generate
pairs of upper- and lowercase charactercodes.
* FIXED: crash if a complex goal-argument to a meta-calling predicate
(call/1, findall/3, etc.) is deterministic upto the last call (so
this is executed tail-recursively). This patch also applies to
executing and removed dynamic predicates. Thanks to Uwe Lesta.
VERSION 3.3.4
=============
* LICENSE: Announce GPL'ed status in banner.
* FIXED: Path problems in RPM-file (actually in path-canonisation).
Thanks to Michael Rohr.
* ADDED: pl.lsm (Linux Software Map Entry) to the source distribution
* INSTALL: Fixed `make install-version'. Thanks to Joachim Katzer.
* PORT: Removed accidental C++-style comment from pl-wam.c. Thanks to
Joachim Katzer.
* INSTALL: rel-ln to avoid using grep -q (GNU-grep specific). Thanks to
Joachim Katzer.
* FIXED: avoid call to win_registry_get_value/3 if this is not defined
(Unix version). Otherwise check/0 reports this predicate as
undefined.
VERSION 3.3.3
=============
* WIN32: Added support in the installation for alternative file-extension.
Added win_registry_get_value/3 to fetch registry values.
* FIXED: PL_cons_functor_v() to read before writing, so it can overwrite
one of the input term-references like similar functions.
* FIXED: Summary description of subset/2.
* FIXED: Actually look for pl.ini in the Prolog home directory (Windows
version).
* FIXED: Bug in PL_unify_term(), causing incorrect `format error' messages.
* FIXED: MT-version: deadlock in stream-handling.
* FIXED: Test for existence of files and directories in expand_file_name/2.
* FIXED: Handling exceptions from make while updating the library index.
Thanks to Bob Wielinga.
VERSION 3.3.2
=============
* PORT: Modified Unix stack-expansion to look for POSIX.1b SA_SIGINFO
support, fixed various portability problems in src/test/mmap.c.
* FIXED: Dangling trail-references from trimStacks(). Often causes
crashes after out-of-stack errors.
* FIXED: Ensure local stack-allocation on machines lacking hardware
stack guarding.
* COMPAT: Renamed argument-names `new' in console.h to allow for loading in
C++ projects (Uwe Lesta).
* FIXED: serious mistake in addMultipleBuffer(), causing various conflicts.
Introduced in 3.3.1.
VERSION 3.3.1
=============
* INSTALL: Integrated patches from SuSE to improve RPM generation.
* PORTABILITY: Fixed assumption that a double is twice as big as a long.
This causes an incompatibility in the .QLF format. All .QLF files should
be recompiled to deal with this version.
* INTERNAL: recorded database to avoid unaligned retrieval using
memcpy(). Provides a little extra speed notably in findall, setof
and friends, at the cost of some (temporary) memory.
* FIXED: scan_options() for machines where sizeof(int) != sizeof(long).
With help from Bob Moniot.
* FIXED: configure work-around for shells providing $PWD, but with the
wrong value ...
* FIXED: time_t problem in convert_time/2. Added exception to instantiation
errors of convert_time/[2,8].
* FIXED: Portability problem for PPC chip (and possibly others) in
PL_unify_term(), causing crashes at various places on affected
processors. The new implementation is probably a litle faster too.
With help of Paulo Moura.
* FIXED: a few type conversions for the 64-bit versions. Just making
the compiler silent.
* FIXED: Changed singleton error to singleton warning using a direct
call to printMessage() rather then the out-of-date warning(). Reported
by Pierre Nugues.
VERSION 3.3.0 (final)
=====================
* FIXED: Undesired interaction between abort and exceptions.
* MODIFIED: Simplified the interface around the undocumented PL_dispatch()
call to improve interactive response on exceptions, etc.
* ADDED: PL_is_initialised() to test whether Prolog is initialised. Also,
when calling PL_initialise() twice the second call is a no-op. Made
PL_initialise() thread-safe, so concurent threads can call it.
* MODIFIED: Unix version no longer installs Windows specific library
files (dde.pl, registry.pl, progman.pl).
* DELETED: libraries toolkit.pl, gensym.pl, qlfutil.pl. Obscure and
out of date functionality.
* ADDED: library url.pl: parsing URL's
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-14)
==========================
* FIXED: apply/2. Lourens again!
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-13)
==========================
* FIXED: Handling of ! in call/1 (was disabled for debugging purposes).
* FIXED: retractall/1: could crash.
* FIXED: apply/2 if the first argument is not an atom. Thanks to
Lourens van der Meij.
* FIXED: thread_get_message/1 (deleted all messages from queue if
the first was extracted).
* ADDED: message_to_string/2 for translating message-terms to text.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-12)
==========================
* PORT: MT version: provided support for systems lacking recursive
(UNIX98) mutexes, amoung which Solaris 2.5. With patch received
from Frank Cornelissen. Thanks!
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-11)
==========================
* INTERNAL: Got -DCOUNTING cpp option to work again for statistics
on the virtual machine.
* ADDED: PL_agc_hook() to register a hook into the atom garbage
collector.
* PERFORMANCE: Changed clause/2 to fully exploit clause-indexing.
* PERFORMANCE: Changed interface of firstClause()/findClause() for
somewhat faster indexing.
* MODIFIED: Allow for abolish of static procedures, unless the iso
prolog flag is set to true.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-10)
==========================
* FIXED: MT version: ensure calling thread_exit/1 gets the thread_at_exit
handlers called. Improved handling of halt/[0,1] by cancelling the other
threads first (incomplete).
* FIXED: open_null_stream/1 to register the stream open for writing
(resulted in permission error).
* FIXED: tracer to disable tail-recursion optimisation again (resulted
in poorly readable trace output).
* FIXED: clause/[2,3] not resetting predicate-reference properly.
* PERFORMANCE: Exploit hashed first-argument indexing by retract/1.
Schedule predicate clause collection to avoid quadratic behaviour
of retract/1.
* ADDED: code_type/2: type `xdigit' for hexadecimal digits.
* ADDED: Support for deeply nested right-recursive terms to the
compiler. Limit (stack-overflow) spotted by Bob Wielinga.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-9)
=========================
* ADDED: option syntax_errors to read_term. Modified read_clause to
use syntax_errors(dec10).
* FIXED: Performance problem in registerAtom(), slowing down loading
large files by a factor 10. Caused by atom garbage collector.
Reported by Luis Iraola Moreno.
* FIXED: Avoid tracing $messages:prolog_message/3 after ?- trace.
* FIXED: Force a linebreak after trace-output from trace/1.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-8)
=========================
* FIXED: Get tracer option `show context' working again.
* FIXED: Module-handling in trace/1 (when using in module user).
* FIXED: Printing messages from C.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-7)
=========================
* FIXED: Path-handling problem loading Quick Load Files from a different
location then they were created. Notably affects handling of
discontiguous.
* FIXED: File association in Windows to allow for additional arguments
(notably stack-expansion).
* MODIFIED: moved all internal messages to $messages:prolog_message/3
rather then prolog:message/3, so all messages can be overrulled by
adding clauses to prolog:message/3.
* ADDED: Printing of goals by the trace through print_message/2 to allow
for better tailuring by the user.
* FIXED: Bug in call/1 on ground-calls and very specific control.
* FIXED: Incorrect verification in SECURE-mode in pl-bags.c (maintenance
only).
* FIXED: Bug in handling logical-update view of assert/retract. Thanks
to Paolo Moura.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-6)
=========================
* FIXED: Problem in the debugger, leading to a possible crash on the exit
port (very complicated conditions).
* ISO: Added the Prolog flags unknown and debug. Moved unknown/2, debug
and nodebug predicates to new library(edinburgh).
* ISO: Added current_predicate/1
* ISO: clause/2 errors.
* FIXED: clause/2: clauses for which the body executes in a different
module as the head to tag the body with the body-context module.
* ISO: Added exceptions to =../2 and functor/3. In old SWI-Prolog,
these predicates failed silently on all errors.
* ADDED: ISO char_conversion/2 and friends. They are not really enforced
though.
* ADDED: ISO option variables(-Vars) to read_term/[2,3]
* FIXED: number_chars/2 exception on illegal number-syntax.
* FIXED: handling ! in call/1, \+/1 and condition-part of if-then-else
* FIXED: time/1 library predicate to pass exceptions correctly.
* ISO: renamed misnamed close2/2 to close/2.
* ISO: Renamed flush/0 to flush_output/0. Added backward compatibility
flush/0 to library(backcomp).
* ISO: Enforced number for arg1 in number_chars/2 and number_codes/2.
Succeed on number_codes(15, "0xf") and similar cases (i.e. if both
arguments are instantiated, convert the string and match the number
as there are multiple representations of numbers.
* ISO: raising permission-error when reading from an output stream
or writing to an input stream.
* FIXED: Put `iso' feature back in place (was lost in rewrite of
prolog-flag handling.
* ISO: fixed exceptions thrown on atomic non-evaluable term (i.e.
A is foo).
* FIXED: atom_concat/3 on backtracking.
* FIXED: Problems with non-deterministic foreign predicates raising
exceptions on the first call for which the cleanup made assuptions
on the returned context. Thanks to Frank Cornelissen.
* FIXED: Layout problem in the online manual
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-5)
=========================
* WIN32: get_time/1 now returns the time in 1/1000 of a second rather
then whole seconds.
* FIXED: expand_file_name/2 and wildchard_match/2 for filenames containing
uppercase characters on systems with case-sensitive filenames (Unix).
Also fixed for handling pattern and names containing non-ASCII characters.
* MODIFIED: expand_file_name/2 and wildchard_match/2 to raise exceptions
on instantiation errors.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-4)
=========================
* FIXED: unload_foreign_library/[1,2] calling of the uninstall hook.
Might fix exit problems in the Windows version.
* ADDED: load_foreign_library/[1,2] now first looks for lib<D>.dll
if the SWI-Prolog kernel is compiled for debugging. That should
simplify debugging foreign code under Windows.
* FIXED: current_prolog_flag(windows, X) on windows (returned false).
* FIXED: retractall/1 and retract/1 not to complain while accessing
undefined procedures. The addressed procedures are flagged dynamic.
* FIXED: Multithreaded creation of new keys in recorda/2 and friends.
* PORT: Prolog threads to Solaris. Tested using SPARC/Solaris 2.7, compiled
using egcs 1.1. Not dealt (yet) with different cpu-time measurements
(Linux: per thread, Solaris: per process).
* FIXED: Stack problem in asynchronous signal handling, also influencing
thread_signal/2.
* FIXED: assertion-error in get_stream_handle() if a stream is set to
be the alias for multiple of the `standard' stream and the stream is
closed.
* ADDED: Atoms can now hold 0-bytes. API: *_nchars() FLI-functions
added to put, unify and get text using length/char *. No consequences
in Prolog.
* ADDED: atom garbage collection. See release-notes in the manual.
API: prolog-flag `agc_margin', garbage_collect_atoms/0, PL_register_atom(),
PL_unregister_atom().
* FIXED: get_single_har/1 to read from user_input, seeing and friends
*not* to return current_input ... Thanks to Cortelli Paolo.
* ADDED: sub_string/5 modelled after ISO sub_atom/5. moved substring/4
to library(backcomp).
* FIXED: exception raised by atom_concat/3.
* FIXED: locking problem in set_input/1, set_output/1, see/1 and
tell/1 (Multi-threaded version).
* ADDED: C interface for accessing an embedded Prolog engine
from multiple threads.
* FIXED: incorrect instantiation-errors from sub_atom/5.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-3)
=========================
* FIXED: Windows installation to add icons to the program manager.
* PORT: Win32: renamed console.dll to plterm.dll to avoid name-conflict
with Windows 2000 system DLL.
* PORT: HTML Manual: renamed Index.html to DocIndex.html and place
the titlepage in index.html. Should fix problems with systems
with case-insensitive files and without links (e.i. Windows).
* ADDED: ISO predicates close/2, unify_with_occurs_check/2,
stream_property/2, sub_atom/5. Moved stream_position/3 and
current_stream/3 from built-in to library(quintus).
* FIXED: $term_complexity/2, which determines whether or not a term is
too large to store as a toplevel variable. Together with the other
changes, the toplevel and debugger no longer crash on cyclic terms.
* ADDED: {put,get,peek}_{byte,char,code}/[1,2] predicates, providing
ISO compliant character I/O.
* ADDED: write_term/[2,3] options `module' for defining the module
from which to use operators and character_escapes to explicitly
override character-escape handling.
* FIXED: Don't set system-mode and hide-childs for already defined
predicates (for XPCE's spypce/1 problems. Reported by Peter Mott).
* FIXED: handling portray(Bool) option of write_term/2.
* ADDED: Prolog flags toplevel_print_options and debugger_print_options
to control printing of answers and goals by the debugger.
* ADDED: max_depth(D) option to write_term/[2,3] to limit the printing
depth.
* ADDED: `W' option to format/[2,3], providing access to write_term/2:
e.g. format('~W', [Term, [quoted(true)]]).
* FIXED: create include directory (Windows-build from the plain sources).
Uwe Lesta.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-2)
=========================
* ADDED: printing PLTHREADS from pl -dump-runtime-variables. plld
automatically pushes -D_REENTRANT to the C and C++ options of pl
is multi-threaded.
VERSION 3.3.0 (release-1)
=========================
* FIXED: errorneous `redefined' messages.
* MODIFIED: Implemented `logical update-view' for dynamic predicates!
* MOVED: time/1 and profile/3 and friends is now in library(statistics)
rather then built-in.
* DELETED: qload/1. Just load the .qlf-file will do the same.
* ADDED: message_hook/3 hook into print_message/2. print_message_lines/3
(All Quintus/SICStus compatible). This mechanism is now used for all
errors and warnings and for a growing number of system messages.
exception/3 using `warning' has been deleted. Use message_hook/3 to
hook into printing messages.
* FIXED: handling mmap() based stacks and shared object interface for
HP/UX (hppa1.1-hpux10.20). Tested build using bash, HP/UX make
and gcc-2.8.1. With thanks to Gertjan van Noord for providing
access to their machine.
* ADDED: char_type/2 and code_type/2 for fast and locale-supported
character classification.
* MODIFIED: The following aspects are now local to the module into
which they are defined: the prolog-flags character_escapes and
double_quotes and operators.
* ADDED: prolog-flag double_quotes, replacing and refining the old
style_check(+string) option, which is mapped to the new interface.
* MODIFIED: The predicates feature/2 and set_feature/2 have been renamed
to the ISO compliant current_prolog_flag/2 and set_prolog_flag/2.
Definitions of the old predicates have been moved to the
library(backcomp).
* ADDED: read-only access to system features, strict type-checking and
allow for arbitrary terms as feature-value.
* ADDED: feature(argv, Argv) to get (finally) documented access to the
commandline arguments. The '$argv'/1 has been put into the backcomp.pl
library. The Quintus compatibility unix(argv(Argv)) is still provided
as well.
* ADDED: Write exception-term if nobody catches an exception.
* FIXED: bug in filename canonisation.
* The manual-helper program pl-bite, use to pick bits of the online
manual and present them to the pager, thus protecting prolog from
receiving a broken-pipe signal has been deleted. The current version
of Prolog can deal with these errors itself.
* MODIFIED: Total rewrite of the internal I/O architecture, which
is now based on streams rather than current input/output. The
new model is required for better handling of multi-threadings
or asynchronous events. Compatibility consequences:
+ Edinburgh current stream predicates
seeing/1 is now the same as current_input/1 and returns a
stream-handle for the current input stream. Same for
telling. The predicates see/1 and tell/1 are equivalent
to set_input/1 and set_output/1 if the argument is a stream,
open/3 followed by setting the current stream otherwise.
Two new streams have been added to deal with debugging:
debug_output and debug_input. Initialy these are the same as
user_output and user_input.
* ADDED: Allow PL_new_atom() to be called before PL_initialise()
* DELETED: read_variables/[2,3]. With ISO read_term, this predicate is
obsolete. Put a backward-compatibility definition in library
backcomp.pl.
* COMPATIBILITY/ISO: All variations of read/1 and read_term/[2,3] now
generate an exception rather than printing a message to the terminal.
This also includes term_to_atom/2 and atom_to_term/3. The option
syntax_errors from read_term/[2,3] has been deleted.
* COMPATIBILITY/ISO: Introduced atom_codes/2 and modified atom_chars/2
to return a list of one-char atoms rather than a list of codes.
The atom-breaking routines now generate exceptions rather than
warnings. Same for number_chars/2 and the new number_codes/2.
Renamed concat/3 to atom_concat/3 and also allow for the pattern
-, -, +. Added concat/3 to the autoload backcomp.pl library.
* MODIFIED: PL_register_foreign() can be called with first argument
of the form <module>:<predicate> to register a predicate into a
specific module.
* ADDED: PL_FA_VARARGS flag to PL_register_foreign(), allowing for an
alternative, arity-independent calling convention to foreign-defined
predicates used by the new C++ interface.
* ADDED: Allow PL_register_foreign() to be called before PL_initialise().
This function now does lazy initialisation of the modules required to
register foreign predicates (allocation, atoms, functors, tables and
modules).
* MODIFIED: Unified Prolog-side of Unix and Windows foreign library
(.so/.dll) interface. Updated library(shlib) and manual accordingly.
The predicates dll_open/2 and friends have been deleted. Please use
open_shared_object/2 and friends, also on Windows.
* MODIFIED: PL_initialise() handling of argv[0]. Updated documentation
on how and why this argument is used. The feature symbol_file has been
deleted and replaced by the feature executable.
* DELETED: load_foreign/[2,5], symbolfile related foreign interface
primitives. On all modern OS'es we should have some form of shared
object or DLL interface for dealing with loading dynamic code. On
others, static relinking of the kernel can be used.
* FIXED: Bug in PL_get_chars() handlings lists of ascii characters and
variables. Also bug in SWI-Prolog.h. PACKAGES USING CVT_ALL OPTION
SHOULD BE RECOMPILED!
* ADDED: CVT_WRITE option to PL_get_chars() C-interface function to
get the printed representation of a term.
* FIXED: Memory alignment problem. Affects RISC/Unix machines where
inode_t and/or dev_t are larger than `word'. Same for longjmp()
data saved on the Prolog stack. With help of Johan van Rijn.
* ADDED: PL_chars_to_term() to transform a C-string into a term by
parsing.
* ADDED: -class option to plld to allow for setting the save-class
(see qsave_program/2).
* FIXED: check for prolog options if save-class is not "runtime".
* FIXED: library(tty) to be robust against style_check(+string) and
menu/3 to clear instead of simply `home'. Reported by Robert van
Engelen.
* FIXED: Parser error, failing to read /\ = X if it is the start
of a term. Reported by Robert van Engelen.
* ADDED: pl.spec to tarball to allow for rpm -tb pl-x.y.z.tar.gz
(also Jan Nieuwenhuizen)
* FIXED: Proper cleanup using `make distclean', suggested by
Jan Nieuwenhuizen.
* FIXED: Deleted temporary assert() statements from pl-rec.c.
reported by Jan Nieuwenhuizen.
* PORTABILITY: Added <stdio.h> to pl-os.c for rename() and remove()
prototypes (Linux/PPC), thanks to Paulo Moura.
VERSION 3.2.9
=============
* FIXED: Changed default C++ compiler for Windows to cl.exe. After
a bug-report from Peter Tselios.
* FIXED: config.{sub,guess} for openbsd. Contributed by Kamo Hiroyasu.
* FIXED: Documentation of mod/2 and rem/2 (arithmetic). Spotted by
Koos Dering.
* FIXED: plld -g to add /ZI /Od to the compiler options. Thanks to
Lutz Wohlrab. He also mentiones that a MSVC can't debug the joined
emulator+state: use plld -nostate, make the state separately and
use -x state to PL_initialise() in the emulator to associate the
state. All this only if you want to debug the C-code.
* IMPLEMENTATION: Base sleep/1 on usleep() if present.
* PORTABILITY: Fixed various compiler warnings on Alpha under Digital
Unix 4.0D, using egcs-1.1b.
* PORTABILITY: Added patches required for MSVC 6.0 (Windows), contributed
by Lutz Wohlrab.
* MODIFIED: Represention of atom and functor table to be MT-safe
and for the atom-table to make one step towards garbage collection.
* MODIFIED: Added exception-throwing on errors to many predicates:
record{a,z}/3, recorded/3, erase/1, current_atom/1, current_functor/2.
* FIXED: handle --name=value arguments for compilation using -c.
catch exceptions during -c compilation and exit if one happens.
* MODIFIED: the default `init-file' of a `runtime' saved-state is
now `none', stopping normal saved-states from reading personal
setup.
* DOCUMENTATION: Fixed various mistakes in the documentation: -c
compilation, added unix/1 to the docs.
* IMPROVED: Raised maximum limits for the stacks from 64 Mb to 128 Mb.
* FIXED: plld to quote arguments if they contain spaces. Required
on Windows to pass the SWI-Prolog include directory properly.
Thanks to Peter Tselios.
* MODIFIED: Looking for user profile file. Now searched for using
user_profile(ProfileFile), where ProfileFile is by default .plrc
on Unix and pl.ini on Windows. The default for user_profile is
., ~ on Unix and ., ~ (if it exists), SWI home and Windows directory
on Windows.
* MODIFIED: built-in predicates, with the exception of expand_file_name/2
no longer expand $ENVVAR and ~, allowing access to files with any name.
The old behaviour can be accessed by setting the feature
file_name_variables to true.
* FIXED: ( \+(!), fail ; true ) and similar cases where ! cuts
are placed in the condition-part of if-then-else. Resulted in
../src/pl-wam.c:xxxx: pl_alt: Assertion `0' failed.
* CONFIG: Allow specifying $CIFLAGS before running configure to
deal with strange locations of include files. Fixed typo in
looking for readline.h. Thanks to Stefan Mueller.
VERSION 3.2.8
=============
* FIXED: Save unknown/2 status with qsave_program/2. Reported
by Robert van Engelen.
* FIXED: include __register_frame_info and friends into the executable
(egcs 1.1.1 exception handling stuff). Should make SWI-Prolog
binaries portable between installations with different
egcs/gcc/glibc versions.
* FIXED: Exception generation for optimized arithmetic. Reported
by Robert van Engelen. Thanks.
* FIXED: qload/1 to check for predicate redefinition just as normal
loading does.
* FIXED: qload/1 to load unqualified code (i.e. if the compiled file
is not a module-file) into the context module of the qload/1 call.
Reported by Paul Sephton.
VERSION 3.2.7
=============
* MODIFIED: term_to_atom/2, atom_to_term/3 now yield an exception on
instantiation errors.
* IMPROVED: rewrote pl-read.c (read_term/2 and friends) to be fully
reentrant by removing all global variables from this module. Also
many reentrant problems solved from pl-file.c (basic file handling).
This is part of a very slow process to prepare SWI-Prolog for
multi-threading.
* ADDED/FIXED: type-checking on options list of qsave_program/2.
* DELETED: library(whereis). Function is obsolete using the new
edit/1 interface (was not documented anyway).
* FIXED: saving numbers like 0x00ff0000 to saved-state (numbers with
more than 22 bits, all whose bytes are either 00 or ff). Found by
Stefan Mueller.
* PORT: Fixes to configure to deal with alloca() and dlopen() on
SCO-Unix, both for gcc and native SCO cc. Thanks to Tamas Laufer.
* ADDED: user:prolog_file_type/2 hook. This can be used to define the
meaning of filename extensions to Prolog. All extension handling is
now based on this predicate.
* MODIFIED: absolute_file_name/3 default for file_errors option is
now `error'. Used to be fail. file_errors(error) now throws an
existence_error exception. This behaviour is compatible to Quintus
and SICStus.
* FIXED: absolute_file_name/3 using solutions(all) option.
* FIXED: PL_handle_signels(): avoid a loop and remove dispatched signels.
This fixes Control-C handling in the Windows version. Thanks to
Bob Wielinga.
* FIXED: Quote program-name when registering the Prolog Source type under
Windows.
* FIXED: proper timing for blocking signals (Unix version), so they
are delayed during garbage collection.
* FIXED: Various issues in the GUI tracer, most related to the new
xpce-5 class-compiler.
* MODIFIED: Deleted please/3 and added the functionality to feature/2.
* FIXED: Some compiler warning in plld.c and pl-stream.c. Might have
caused problems when using characters >= 128, but quite unlikely. Reported
by Peter Ludeman.
* FIXED: 8-bit transparency of console window.
VERSION 3.2.6
=============
* FIXED: definition of last/2 to be both logical and determinitic if
applicable. Based on implementation published on comp.lang.prolog
a while ago.
* FIXED/PORTABILITY: Modified implementation of stack-allocation based
in mmap() (Many Unix systems). This makes the configuration work on
the Linux 2.2 kernels, but most likely fixes problems on many other
systems. It also avoids potentional conflicts in the stack management
with foreign code using mmap().
* FIXED: retract((p:-true)) is equivalent to retract(p). Reported
by Juan Cires Martinez.
* DOCUMENTATION: Thanks to Xavier Noria, a large number of spelling
and consistency problems have been removed from chapters 1 and 2
of the manual. Keep up the good work!
* FIXED: Avoid reentrence of the GNU readline library, as this upsets
the readline signal handling.
* ISO: load_files/2 now throws an exception rather then printing a
message if a target file does not exist.
* FIXED: Initiate hash-based indexing for integers > max_tagged_integer.
Very important if your code uses large integers and relies on indexing!
* FIXED: recognise -p option in pl -o state -c file.pl. Reported by
Lukas Faulstich. Thanks.
VERSION 3.2.4
=============
* FIXED: protocolling the input-stream on the Windows version.
* ADDED: 'm' command in tracer to examine details of the currently
pending exception.
* ADDED: Support for EWOULDBLOCK on input streams required by new
socket package.
* FIXED: wait_for_input/3 correct reporting of anonymous streams.
* ADDED: Port of wait_for_input/3 to Windows. Only works for streams
referring to sockets!
* FIXED: Get MAXPATHLEN ok for some more platforms (SCO_SV 3.2), reported
by Clive Cox. Thanks.
* FIXED: Win32: plld.exe to deal properly with the implicitely added
.exe extension of qsave_program/[1,2]. Thanks to Lutz Wohlrab.
* FIXED: Some patches to the Windows MSVC project-configuration for
building SWI-Prolog from the source-code by Lutz Wohlrab.
VERSION 3.2.3
=============
* ADDED: Win32: Some project settings and debug-options to plld contributed
by Lutz Wohlrab.
* ADDED: RPM Packages for swi-prolog, xpce and the GUI tracer. See the
new home-page.
* FIXED: Recursion problem in calling prolog_event_hook/1, causing crashes
in the graphical debugger.
* FIXED: Crash after set_feature(history, on). Thanks to Anjo Anjewierden.
VERSION 3.2.2
=============
* FIXED: Memory problem at startup. This caused startup-crashes in
Windows 95/98. Normally harmless under NT and Unix, but can cause
problems here too if the size of a saved state is an exact multiple
of the machine's page-size.
* MODIFIED: Win32: qsave_program/[1,2] now adds .exe extension if no
extension was specified.
VERSION 3.2.1
=============
* FIXED: qsave_program/[1,2] for Windows 98 and possibly other platforms.
Thanks to Uwe Lesta.
VERSION 3.2.0
=============
* WIN32: moved to MSVC 5.0 platform. Added win32 specific source
(console, uxnt libraries) to the main source-tree. Added MSVC
workspace to manage the whole building process. Good news is
that MSVC 5.0 produces considerably faster code. The Windows
and Linux versions now perform about equally on the same hardware
(SuSE 5.3 linux using egcc 1.03 vs. NT 4.0/SP4 using MSVC 5.0).
With thanks to Lutz Wohlrab.
* WIN32: Console version of SWI-Prolog (plcon.exe) no longer shows
a message-box on errors, completion of the boot-compilation, etc.
* FIXED: Win32 console (plwin.exe), various patches: a startup
threat-synchronisation problem which might explain why SWI-Prolog
crashes immediately at startup sometimes on windows 95/98 (NT appears
more robust for invalid API calls), two memory management problems in
the window-resize code and some small glitches.
* ADDED: Win32 version: exported _PL_get_arg() (non-checking PL_get_arg()).
* FIXED: more patches to PL_Q_PASS_EXCEPTION handling of PL_open_query()
and PL_call_predicate().
* FIXED: avoid a debugger trap of an exception if the exception is catched
in an outer-context and passed over the intermediate foreign-call using
PL_Q_PASS_EXCEPTION. Required for XPCE-5.
* FIXED: PL_cons_*() to make references in the proper direction. Notably
caused problems when constructing a term holding variables for PL_throw().
* ADDED: PL_record(), PL_recorded(), PL_erase()
* ADDED: edit(Name) now also finds system-predicates.
* FIXED: toplevel spy, listing, etc. no longer trigger the tracer
if the predicate doesn't exists.
* ADDED: pl.spec, RPM specification-file. Contributed by Tony Nugent.
Thanks!
* INSTALL: use mkdir -p if available (detected by configure).
* FIXED: meta_predicate/1 emulation in library(quintus) to deal with
:- meta_predicate Module:Head.
* ADDED: goal_expansion/2 and expand_goal/2 to deal with expansion of
individual goals.
* MODIFIED: _PL_get_xpce_reference() dropped object-qualifier
argument, which was needed for Alpha XPCE 5.0.0, but not
for subsequent XPCE versions.
VERSION 3.1.2
=============
* FIXED: SIO_MAGIC declaration of SWI-Prolog standard streams.
* ADDED: Indicate debugger status in prompt.
* FIXED: Windows: correctly maintains stream character-count when
writing newlines to a text-stream. Reported by Pete Yule.
MODIFIED: Calling interface for S__updatefilepos(), making binary
foreign code using Sgetc() or Sgetchar() incompatible. Code is
compatible at the source-level. This includes XPCE 5.0.0!
Using old binary packages raises a [FATAL ERROR message].
* FIXED/MODIFIED: PL_get_chars to convert floats using the feature
float_format. Hinted by Pete Yule.
* FIXED: Increased tmp buffer-size in PL_get_chars() to deal with
printing very large floating point numbers.
* FIXED: handling of PL_Q_CATCH_EXCEPTION/PL_Q_PASS_EXCEPTION
* FIXED: PL_open_resource() now passes exceptions, instead of
catching (and printing) them. Also fixed setting errno to
ENOENT.
* ADDED: feature(iso, Bool) to select ISO conformance in weird
places, such as the ISO standard order of terms which dictates
all floats precede all integers. Default is false.
* MODIFIED: compare/3 affecting sort, msort, keysort and @</2 and
family now compare compound terms based on arity first and then
alphabetically instead of the other way around! The new behaviour
is compliant to the ISO standard and (at least) Quintus Prolog.
Noted by Jonathan Hodgson.
* MODIFIED: predsort/3 to call the comparison as compare/3, so
predsort(compare, L1, L2) has the same semantics as sort(L1, L2).
NB: This implies the programs using predsort/3 should be MODIFIED!
Try explain(predsort/3) to find references in your program.
* FIXED: writing quoted atoms holding characters >= 128. Reported
by Lukas Faulstich.
* ADDED: convert_time(+TimeStamp, -String) as an interface to
the POSIX ctime() function.
* MODIFIED: edit/[0,1], ed/[0,1] are replaced by a new extensible
dynamic-load library(edit), providing only edit/1. This predicate
can be extended to locate any type of `object' and call any editor.
See manual for details.
* ADDED: module support for DCG expansion, correctly translating
<module>:<head> --> <body> as well as <head> --> <module>:<dcg-goal>.
* ADDED: guarding and printing of exceptions during initialisation,
making debugging a little easier.
* FIXED: PL_register_foreign() to lock up predicates as system
predicates when called in `system' mode.
* FIXED: passing frame references for the tracer-interception.
* MODIFIED: renamed module explain (from library(explain)) into
prolog_explain to avoid conflicts with user module names.
* FIXED: catch/3 using pointer to non-static local variable. Could
cause a crash by jumping into hyper-space.
* ADDED: manpage for plrc(1)
* DELETED: chpl and its manpage. This command is replaced by plrc(1),
manipulating the SWI-Prolog 3.x resource database.
* FIXED: Reset gced_size of stacks after an abort to make the garbage
collector work properly afterwards. Also fixed detection of
trail-garbage for specific (deterministic) callbacks from C. This
could result in situations where no trail-garbage at all was detected,
leading to trail-stack overflows.
* FIXED: Added configure test for sigprocmask. This fixes repeated signals
on many Unix platforms (Control-C).
* FIXED: Determinism of maplist/checklist predicates.
* FIXED: free_variables/2 typo in 3.1.0, causing it to report variables
more than once. Thanks to Luc Van Oostenryck.
VERSION 3.1.1
=============
* FIXED: catch(Goal, template(Vars), handle(Vars)), i.e. catching
exceptions based on patterns and using the variable-bindings in
the pattern.
* FIXED: Problem in SopenRC()/rc_close() communication, spotted by
Tamas Laufer. Could result in "ERROR: Failed to save system resources"
message, depending on compiler/and or hardware.
* FIXED: online help truncated output.
* FIXED: wrong value of lTop returned by PL_next_solution() on deterministic
predicates. Can cause a crash.
* FIXED: Errorneous ``NOTE: system definition has been overruled ...''
from listing/[0,1].
* FIXED: saving operators using qsave_program/[1,2]. Spotted by
Robert van Engelen.
* FIXED: added format predicate and arithmetic function status to
saved-states. Thanks to Tobias Thelen.
* ADDED: current_format_predicate/3
VERSION 3.1.0
=============
* ADDED: PL_put_string_nchars() to register strings using length/ptr
* FIXED: bug in the stack-shifter, introduced in 3.0.0
* FIXED: configure option --disable-mapped-stacks
* ADDED: configure option --disable-segv-handling
* ADDED: Mapping signals (software interrupts) onto Prolog predicates
or exceptions. See on_signal/3.
* MODIFIED: signal-handling using PL_signal(): the handler can now
safely call Prolog.
* MODIFIED: PL_throw() now performs a longjmp(), instead of returning
failure. PL_raise_exception() replaces the old PL_throw()
* FIXED: FreeBSD testing for rlim_t type (configure). Thanks to
Colin E. Johnson.
* PERFORMANCE: Added indexing for non-tagged numbers (> 16M)
* FIXED: current_stream/3 for streams having an alias name. Fix
also affects other stream-related predicates returning an aliased
stream.
* FIXED: added space in write(a+ -1).
VERSION 3.0.0
=============
* FIXED: Actually test for GCC-2 feature to handle label-addresses.
Should fix compilation on Rapsody, where cc says it is gcc-2, but
the gcc extensions are not enabled (by default).
* FIXED: Detection of topOfHeap() on m68k linux (and other linux brands),
using a patch contributed by Roman Hodek.
* FIXED: Garbage collection error, resulting in a false `early reset'
in a specific combination on call-back from C to Prolog and
choicepoints. With thanks to Lourens van der Meij for reporting
and localising the problem.
* ADDED: PL_cons_functor_v() to create a functor from a vector of
term-references.
* FIXED: discontiguous and multifile cause the predicate to be considered
`defined'. Thanks to Paulo Moura.
* ADDED: prolog_list_goal/1 hook to intercept the 'L' command from the
debugger.
* FIXED: configure detection of type rlim_t on some platforms. Thanks to
Volker Stolz.
* MODIFIED: <module>:<head> :- <body> is now compiled differently from
<module>:(<head> :- <body>). The clause is added to <module>:<head>,
but <body> is executed in the context of the definition module. This
behaviour is compliant with Quintus and SICStus Prolog, and required
to deal with the XPCE 5.0 class-compiler. In most cases, this just
allows to remove now redundant module specifiers. In the rare cases
the old behaviour is required, just but enclose the close in braces.
* FIXED: abolish/[1,2] on an imported predicate.
* ADDED: Putting `resources' into a saved state. Especially for dealing
with XPCE (graphics) resources. See resource/3, qsave_program/[1,2],
open_resource/[3,4], plrc(1), PL_open_resource().
* FIXED: Sfread() and Sfwrite() to return proper value on short read/write.
* FIXED: Copy-problem in Which() (pl-os.c). Made the problem below
appearant.
* FIXED: Symbols() to deal with x-only executables (Unix). Thanks to
Gernot Salzer (caused a crash).
* FIXED: Docs for PL_cons_list(). Thanks to Ivan Karski.
* ADDED: PL_cons_functor() the first argument may now also appear in
the argument list.
* FIXED: putNum()/getNum() format to deal with any value that can
be represented in a long. Fixes an assertion failure while booting
on some platforms.
* FIXED: Quoted write in feature(character_escape, true) is effective
to write the atoms such that they can be read back. Spotted by
Bernd Werner.
* ADDED: Seek/4, Quintus compatible implementation for seeking to an
indicated position in a stream.
* FIXED: Various traceports to make Prolog exit on reading end-of-file,
rather then entering an endless loop.
* FIXED: put/[1,2] to raise an exception on IO errors. Patched
SIGPIPE handling to clear the buffer of the offending stream,
so a subsequent close() on the stream will not cause another
SIGPIPE.
* MODIFIED: file_directory_name/2 output never contains a trailing
/. If no directory is present, the result is '.'.
* DELETED: -B command-line switch
* DELETED: old save/restore facilities.
VERSION 2.9.10
==============
* ADDED: dup_stream/2 to copy stream handles.
* ADDED: Allow for specifying stream alias-name to PL_open_stream(),
also used by open_null_stream/1, so open_null_stream(null) will make
`null' an aliased null-stream.
* UPDATED: Some parts of the documentation.
* FIXED: Control-C handling on some platforms (notably Solaris 2.5).
* ADDED: options close_on_abort and buffer to open/4.
* FIXED: write(not (a,b)) ommited the space and wrote not(a,b). Thanks
to Stefan Mueller.
VERSION 2.9.9
=============
* FIXED: Portability problems for Solaris 2.6.
* FIXED: throwing Prolog exceptions on `Broken Pipe' in flush/0 and
flush_output/1.
* FIXED: detection of limit on datasize on SGI platform. Thanks to
Marcello Balduccini.
* FIXED: Possibility of a crash in Symbols(), notably affecting embedded
systems (at startup). Thanks to Anton Eliens.
The 4 bugs below were reported by Luc Van Oostenryck. Thanks.
* FIXED: concat_atom/3 if the separator is not an atom.
* FIXED: arg(0, Term, Arg) to fail
* FIXED: atom_char(abc, X) to raise an instantiation fault if the length
of the atom is not 1. Also, return integers in the range [1..255] instead
of [-128..127].
* FIXED: -0xff is now read as -255. Not sure if -(255) would not be a
better idea!?
VERSION 2.9.8
=============
* WIN32: Replaced various C runtime functions by their native Win32
versions.
* FIXED: Calling module transparent predicates from the outer foreign
context using context module NULL to call in module "user", rather than
in the definition module of the predicate. Found by Stephane Berhault.
* FIXED: Early switch off the tracer after an abort to avoid tracing
the hooks.
* ADDED: explain/1 reporting references to undefined predicates (i.e. which
clauses reference the undefined predicate). Also explain/1 reporting
references to XPCE methods.
* FIXED: explain/1 reporting non-existing references to compound terms.
VERSION 2.9.7
=============
* FIXED: avoid some warnings to get clean compilation on GCC 2.8.0.
* FIXED: detection of discontiguous predicates (avoids false alarm).
* ADDED: Predicate definition for (*->)/2, mainly to allow for testing
for its existence and avoid redefinition.
* ADDED: Options to qsave_program/2 may be specified as Name(Value)
or Name = Value.
* FIXED: `map' option of qsave_program/2.
* FIXED: handling of dynamic predicates import/export by
qsave_program/[1,2]. found by Lourens van der Meij.
* PORT: fixed pl-load.c for systems supporting the ELF dynamic load
functions, but not RTLD_LAZY (FreeBSD?) Lost the name of the guy
pointing me to this problem. Thanks anyway!
* FIXED: handling of a functor as key for recorded and frieds, found by
Lourens van der Meij.
* FIXED: current_stream/3 if a current stream refers to a pipe. Found
by Robert van Engelen.
* FIXED: dereferencing symbolic link of argv[0] to find the `real'
symbol file. Reported by Milan Zamazal, where this problem caused
a crash when running SWI-Prolog using M-x run-prolog under Emacs.
VERSION 2.9.6
=============
* MODIFIED: list_to_set/2 retains the first, rather then the last
occurrence of duplicate members to the set.
* FIXED: flag/3 using floating-point numbers for machines that cannot
address doubles on 4-byte alignment (most RISC processors).
* FIXED: foreign-reference handling of exception terms, causing garbage
collection problems. Reported by Robert van Engelen.
* PORT: improved detection and placement of mmap()-ed stacks (Unix sparse
stack-management) with help of Marcello Balduccini.
* FIXED: clause/3 to add/remove predicate reference-count while holding
a choicepoint to the predicate. Reported by Marcello Balduccini.
* ADDED: -c flag to plld to turn it into `plcc', just compiling .c or
.cc files. Thanks to Marcello Balduccini.
* MODIFIED: write/1 and friends now only insert spaces before and
after operators if these are required to be a valid term for read/1.
The only exception is ,/2, which is written using a space after the
symbol. NOTE: foreign packages including <SWI-Stream.h> need
to be recompiled!!!
* FIXED: current_predicate/2 not consider abolished predicates that
still exist as `current', so current_predicate(_, Goal), Goal is
guaranteed not to raise an exception on Goal. Should fix recent
reconsult problems in XPCE.
* ADDED: user:message_hook/3 hook for print_message/2 (provisional).
* MODIFIED: Hooks installed by PL_initialise_hook() are called *before*
the saved-state is loaded, but after the heap is initialised. This
implies only foreign predicates may be called from this hook now.
* FIXED: testing of write-permissions for the library index for
make/0.
* MODIFIED: Toplevel queries are now read from user_input, rather
than from the current input stream.
* ADDED: feature(history, Depth). If 0, no history and no history-prompt
are provided. This is the default if feature(readline, true) succeeds.
* FIXED: set_feature(Name, Integer)
* FIXED: chdir/absolute_file_name problem, reported by Machiel Jansen.
Thanks.
* FIXED: erase/1 on records referenced by recorded/3 choicepoints. Thanks
to Robert van Engelen.
* FIXED: Reference direction in recorded/3 (also used by findall/3 and
friends).
* FIXED: Removed various warnings for SunSoft cc compiler. Fixed
one error reported by this compiler.
* FIXED: Cite references in online documentation. Modified/Cleaned
man/plindex.pl for this. Fixed a few typos.
VERSION 2.9.5
=============
* FIXED: dwim_predicate to deal properly with default modules.
* FIXED online manual not to use overstrike by default. See manual
for details. XPCE requires patched prolog/lib/swi_help.pl to work
properly with this version.
* FIXED: plld for handling -l<lib> correctly in the Unix version, and
automatically deleting temporary .exp files in Win32.
* FIXED important fix returning address of local variable, found by
Jean Daniel Fekete. Thanks.
VERSION 2.9.4
=============
* FIXED: Various references to the variable stacks for systems requiring
the stack-shifter. Thanks to Michirou Yabuki for reporting.
* FIXED: recorded database (and findall/3, bagof/3, setof/3 store)
handling of strings. After retrieval, the string's indirect header
was incorrect, making unification and equivalence fail. Thanks to
Andrew Dadakow for providing me with a simple program illustrating
the problem.
VERSION 2.9.3
=============
* ADDED: (Simple) support for exceptions in the GUI-tracer.
* MODIFIED: PL_extensions array now needs to be explicitely registered
using PL_register_extensions() for compatibility with Win32. Documented
PL_register_extensions().
* FIXED: print/1 to include the `quoted' option as it used to before
2.9.0. Thanks to Sam Waugh for noting.
* NEW: plld is now written in C, and adapted for usage on Windows-NT
and Windows '95. The latter is incomplete, but useful for creating
embedded Win32 console applications. The old plld is available as
plld.sh in the source distribution.
* FIXED: PL_register_foreign() now declares the function-pointer as
a void * for C++ code, so it may be used with C++.
* MODIFIED: tmp_file/2 now returns the canonical filename on
Windows platforms (i.e. c:/temp/base<n>, rather then C:\TEMP\base<n>).
use prolog_to_os_filename/2 to convert between the two formats.
* FIXED: catch/3 for proper continuation if the recovery goal
succeeds.
* FIXED: definition of ulong on some platforms for the new pl-global.h
module.
VERSION 2.9.2
=============
* CLEANUP: Removed various unreachable statements reported by the
SGI native compiler.
* FIXED: Unresolved message for S__fupdatefilepos() using native
SGI compiler, which does not emit code for inline functions.
* FIXED: diagnosis of `discontiguous' and `redefined' predicates
while the predicate is reconsulted while it is running.
* FIXED: Posibility of calling alloca(0) in pl-rec.c, spotted by
Tamas Laufer. Should fix SCO Unix version.
* FIXED: absolute_file_name/3, generation of multiple solutions:
avoid regenerating the same solution. Caused make/0 to slow down
more and more.
* IMPLEMENTATION: Partial preparation for multi-threading. Removed
lots of unnecessary global variables and moved most of the remaining
ones into three structures defined in the new file pl-global.h.
Read-only global data is now declared `const', putting it into
shared memory on good machines/compilers. As a result, SWI-Prolog
is a little smaller and faster.
Still need to get rid of the remaining global variables and need
to embrace all heap-operations to prepare them for the use with
mutexes.
* FIXED: trace-interception calling on fail-port, causing the GUI
tracer to crash on some ocasions.
* DELETED: Source file pl-dump.c, implementing save/1, restore/1
and save_program/1. These predicates only worked on a few
platforms anyway. qsave_program is now the only (and portable)
saved-state mechanism.
* IMPROVED: Removed limit on number of user-defined arithmetic
functions.
* IMPROVED: Format ~s accepts both a list of ASCII chars or a
string (see string/1) object. Thanks to Peter Ludeman.
VERSION 2.9.1
=============
* FIXED: auto-detection of -export-dynamic in favour of -rdynamic
(GNU-ld based systems using ELF binary format not supporting
-rdynamic, e.g. Solaris using gcc with GNU-ld). Thanks to
Volker Weber.
* FIXED: mmap configuration issues, with thanks to Daniel Pun.
* FIXED: some changes to the Makefile(.in) and configure for portability,
by Joel Faedi.
* FIXED: wouldBindProcedure(), used by $xr_member, used by the explain
facility. Could crash.
VERSION 2.9.0
=============
* ADDED/MODIFIED: The interface to PL_open_query() has changed.
The debug argument is replaced by a bitwise or'ed flags argument.
The values FALSE and TRUE have their familiar meaning, making old
code using these constants compatible. Non-zero values other than
TRUE (1) will be interpreted different.
* DELETED: display/[1,2] and displayq/[1,2]. Added emulation into
library(backcomp).
* ADDED: ISO/Quintus compliant write_canonical/[1,2].
* FIXED: recorded database bug for very large terms.
* ADDED: Lots of exception codes. Roughly, file i/o, external program
invocation and arithmetic now use exceptions.
* IMPROVED: write/1 and friends now check the return code of the
low-level I/O functions and fail with exception on read/write
errors.
* REMOVED: $print/2. Doesn't appear to be used anywhere.
* ADDED: write_term/[2,3], ISO compliant
* ADDED: ISO compliant exception handling using catch/3 and throw/1,
including a C-interface for these (PL_throw() and PL_exception())
Added exception port to the tracer.
* ADDED: abolish/1, ISO compliant.
* FIXED: A is "a" (list as abbreviation for a character).
VERSION 2.8.7
=============
* FIXED: require/1 to be silent on already defined system predicates.
* FIXED: passing ldflags in plld script.
* CONFIG: Removed checking for -lelf if the system is not asked
to configure old save/1.
* CONFIG: Modified test/mmap.c to find out whether we should allocate
from the top or base of the heap. Added TOPOFHEAP to config.h. Should
fix Irix problems.
VERSION 2.8.6
=============
* Included src/pl.1.in (new file, forgotten in the 2.8.5 release)
* INSTALL: slightly more careful installation of the manpages and
small problem in configure fixed.
VERSION 2.8.5
=============
* MAN: Updated manual sources for a couple of recent changes, added
support for generation of the help/1 database using new tools for
nroff like generation of plain text from a LaTeX document. Generated
all three formats of the manual: HTML, PostScript and plain text.
* FIXED: Installation of the manual page for correct description of the
pl -dump-runtime-variables.
* ADDED: For machines using memory-mapped stacks (Linux, SunOs, Solaris,
OSF/1 for example), added heap-size switch: -H. Default is 256Mbytes.
Size switch now take optional 'm' (Mega), 'k' (Kilo, default) or 'b'
(bytes): -L32m specifies 32 Mbytes local stack.
* FIXED: print error message if heap allocation above prefect fit
schema (>1024 bytes) fails (malloc() returns NULL). All allocation
failures now call outOfCore().
VERSION 2.8.4
=============
* FIXED: PL_{get,put,unify}_pointer() mapping of pointer to integer,
to ensure all possible pointer values are restored properly.
* CLEANUP: Removed various internal unused functions, changed
functions to be local that were only called locally.
* MODIFIED: Redesign of various parts of the system to get rid of
terms living in the permanent heap. This modification allows the
permanent heap (where malloc() operates) to grow unlimited (used to
be 64 MB).
+ Records (recorda/3, recorded/3, erase/1) are no longer stored
as copies of the global-terms, but instead as a form of compiled
code, optimised for copying the object back to the runtime stacks.
Records are also used by findall/3, setof/3 and bagof/3, and these
predicates have thus been modified too. The interface between the
C and Prolog part has changed, making old saved-states worthless.
Old QLF files work properly.
+ Records are also used by the /f goal option of the tracer. The
implementation of this has been changed drastically. The result
is a lot faster while searching and a bug has been fixed.
+ loadXRc() in pl-wic.c has been modified not to store longs, doubles
and string onto the heap. This is the desired behaviour anyway.
+ Feature storage changed to use a union type, rather then integers
on the heap.
+ Variable analysis in the compiler now used TAG_ATOM|STG_GLOBAL,
like records, to flag the analysed variables.
+ Temporary variable management in read/1 using the same trick.
+ Atoms are indexed over a global, resizable, array.
GOOD THINGS
+ makeRef() now simply is makeRefLG().
+ Trail() is simplified a lot.
+ makePtr() (pl-gc.c) no longer deals with heap pointers
VERSION 2.8.3
=============
* FIXED: Changed manual to talk about PL_atom_chars(), rather then
PL_string_from_atom().
* FIXED: oset_addel/3, thanks to Robert van Engelen for both the
report and the patch.
* FIXED: string_to_list(X, []).
* FIXED: Order and unlinking shared objects. Now, all files are
closed before unlinking any shared libraries. Shared libraries
are unlinked explicitely only on non-Unix systems.
VERSION 2.8.2
=============
* FIXED: GC/tracer for clauses holding string objects at particular
places. Reported by Andrew Dadakow.
* FIXED: Deleted old pl.mak, and added plwin.mak and plcon.mak for
rebuilding the sources on Windows.
* FIXED: Typo in the $write_on_* predicates, underlying sformat and
swritef, causing a crash on > 1024 characters output. Thanks to
Shane P. McCarron.
VERSION 2.8.1
=============
* FIXED: DEC Alpha (64-bit): reading integers > 2**31-1. Configuration
of mmap based sparse stack allocation to deal with the Alpha. Various
warnings removed. Fixed test.pl to be aware of the Alpha where
necessary (float-3 test).
* FIXED: Garbage collection problem, occurring with a specific
combination of call-back from C and choicepoint organisation
in the callback environment.
* FIXED: Tracer `retry <n>' (guitracer only) to take care of garbage
collected choicepoints.
* FIXED: initialisation of style_check defaults to specify
singletons, long atoms and discontiguous clauses. NOTE: THIS MAY
CAUSE WARNINGS ON OLD CODE.
* ADDED: Several predicates for math in library(quintus).
* FIXED: abolish/2 on active (running) predicates, not to remove the
NEEDSCLAUSE_GC flag, so the clauses are actually removed if the
predicates is finished. Thanks to Paulo Moura, author of LogTalk.
* FIXED: PL_get_arg() when using -L0 -G0 (maximized stacks). Probably
only breaks tracing code under these circumstances.
VERSION 2.8.0
=============
* FIXED: `$qlf_info'/3 (always failed). Used by the development
environment under construction.
* RUNTIME SYSTEM: Made various of the debugger options conditional
on whether or not the system is compiled as runtime system.
* ADDED: more options to user:prolog_event_hook/1 for better
interaction with the GUI tracer: possibility to `watch' a
stack-frames end-of-lifetime.
* FIXED: writeq('%') to write '%' rather then just %.
* FIXED/MODIFIED: subterm_positions option of read to return the
positions of possible surrounding braces for a term. Thus,
reading (hello) now yields 0-6 rather then 1-5. This notably
fixes the 'f' (finish) option in the GUI tracer to properly
indicate the succeeded clause.
* PORT: Configure detected tcgetattr()/tcsetattr() usage rather then
ioctl(), fixing terminal interaction on OSF/1.
* PORT: Fix in Makefile to make it work with some broken shells.
* PORT: renamed I_POP virtual machine instruction to I_POPF, to avoid
a conflict with system headers on some machines.
* PORT: Added support for the 64-bit DEC Alpha processor (or, more
in general made the code 64-bit clean). Tested on a DEC Alpha
using OSF/1 4.0 and the native C-compiler. Should also work on
GCC, but the local GCC installation appeared broken. With thanks
to Bryan Sorrows for providing me with access to their machine.
Exactly while I was working on the port, Martin Ostermann mailed
me patches for running on the Alpha under Linux. Thanks for the
couple of problems I missed!
Remaining problems: can sparse memory management work on OSF/1?
Currently, saved states are portable, but the limits on the Alpha
are much larger. This should be fixed. Prolog machine words are
64 bits on the Alpha, doubling the stack-sizes and virtually
removing all limits. In theory, it would also be possible to use
ints (32-bit) for this. I have not checked this. It is not unlikely
there are variables defined `int', where they should have been
`long', truncating large numbers.
* FIXED: globalAlloc() for allocations larger than a page on machines
with sparse memory management, not handling stack-overflows as
exceptions (Win32). Fixes handling of long string objects on these
platforms.
* FIXED: (GUI Tracer) Stopped `cut-port' from activating when in
`leap' mode.
VERSION 2.7.20
==============
* ADDED: Documentation for expand_query/4 and expand_answer/2.
* ADDED: call_with_depth_limit/3, to aid theorem provers.
* ADDED: features 'unix' and 'windows' for these operating systems.
Version 2.7.19
==============
* FIXED: functor(X, name, -1), reported by Robert van Engelen. Thanks.
* FIXED: :- format_predicate/2 handling of arguments.
* ADDED: external "C" declaractions for SWI-Stream.h, so you can use this
in C++ programs now.
* FIXED: the function sign/1 for floating point numbers.
Version 2.7.18
==============
* ADDED: Directory html for a SWI-Prolog based latex2html translator.
Very extensive example of using foreign code.
* REMOVED: Lots of unused files from the source-distribution
* WIN32: Removed the uxnt.dll library. This library is now a static
library linked into libpl.lib, the SWI-Prolog kernel.
* FIXED: Handling of -p alias=path:...: order of the arguments doesn't
matter anymore and parsing of the path has been fixed.
* MODIFIED: load_files/2, `silent' option inherits to loads triggerred
from this one.
* FIXED: Garbage collector error, causing a crash if the local
and global stack together exceed 64 MB. Now, they can each
be 64 MB and be allocated at arbitrary positions.
* CHANGED: Default editor command is now <editor> "<file>", using
double instead of single quotes. This fixes problems on Windows
platforms.
* ADDED: clause_property(+Ref, ?erased), to support the debugger
reporting about running modified clauses.
* FIXED: current_functor(+Name, +Arity). Reported by Stefan Wimmel.
Thanks.
Version 2.7.17
==============
* MODIFIED: the `debug' argument to PL_open_query() now really stops
the debugger operating inside the called goal, also if an error
arrises.
* PORT: Sgi/Irix headers configuration and detection of alignment
restrictions on doubles.
* FIXED: Better operator priority checking, making a :- b :- c illegal
syntax, as it should be. Also improved the warning issued.
* FIXED: Removes MAX_TERM_NESTING from read.pl, previously limiting
the complexity of terms that could be read. The new version of
read requires significantly less (C-) stack and can handle
much more deeply nested terms.
* FIXED: term_to_atom(+Term, -Atom) on machines with dynamic stacks,
but no exception based expansion (PC version).
* FIXED: Sopenmen() stream functions (was not used before). This
is now used by tellString() and toldString(), who now have a
different interface. These functions are used by term_to_atom/2,
and format/[1-3].
Version 2.7.16
==============
* FIXED: Various minor issues in the Makefiles and configure for
generating a runtime version. Error message if the runtime
system cannot find its state.
* FIXED: Heuristics for making hash-index.
Version 2.7.15
==============
* FIXED: Embedding: the kernel now not longer gives up if it cannot
find the Prolog home directory. feature(home, Home) will fail if
the home could not be located.
* FIXED: Configure problems related to -l[n]curses, etc.
* FIXED: retractall(Module:Head(+Arg, ...)) (i.e. explicit module and
instantiated first argument).
* ADDED: atom_prefix(+Atom, +Prefix): test of Prefix is a prefix
of Atom.
* FIXED: Bug in Unify between non-tagged and tagged integer.
* FIXED: Bugs in configure, both improper test of double alignment
and improper testing for the cursus libraries. Thanks to
Masafumi Nakane.
* IMPROVED: Moved source_file/2 to foreign language to exploit the
kernel-maintained database for enumerating the predicates loaded
from a sourcefile.
* MODIFIED: prolog_trace_interception/3 now has 4 arguments.
* ADDED: Support for tracing the cut in the source-level debugger.
* ADDED: Support for `break-points' to the debugger.
* FIXED: Protocol to include the prompt in the protocol.
* ADDED: clause_property(ClauseRef, fact). Used by source-level tracer.
* ADDED: Various options to prolog_frame_attribute/3 for the source-level
tracer.
* FIXED: allow for tracing the unify-port of a fact.
* ADDED: prolog_frame_attribute(Frame, argument(N), Arg) to read
bindings from a stack-frame.
* ADDED: Various options to plld, the standalone executable linker.
* IMPROVED: (if->then;else) to generate tail-recursion code for the
`then' part.
* ADDED: $clause_position/3 and prolog_frame_attribute(Frame, pc, PC).
First steps for a source-code debugger.
* IMPROVED: Clause-representation to delete subclauses member, which
proved obsolete using the current system. Added UNIT_CLAUSE flag
to the clause's flags to achieve the same support for the decompiler.
* FIXED: handling of the stream user_error by other predicates than
format/[1-3]. Also, using output from write/2, etc. to unbuffered
streams like user_error is now buffered in 256 byte-blocks, but
guaranteed to be flushed after the write operation completes,
resulting in fewer calls to write() and therefore generally better
performance.
Version 2.7.14
==============
* FIXED: Win32 shell/1 implementation has changed radically, not
using threads anymore. This hopefully fixes shell/1 on all
platforms. The old version started a thread to wait for the
process, while the main thread continued processing windows
messages. The new version loops through PeekMessage, GetExitCodeProcess
and Sleep, processing messages and waiting in the same (main)
thread.
* FIXED: reentrance problem in Sgetc() (low level fetch for character),
upsetting the tracer sometimes when using XPCE.
<this version was put on the ftp server Sep 6>
* FIXED: current_stream/3 failed to properly enumerate the streams.
Thanks to Robert van Engelen.
* MODIFIED: ensure_loaded and use_module now load if the file has
been changed since it was last loaded, and not only if it was not
loaded before.
* ADDED: load_files/2 to load files with various options (including
silent loading). The undocumented $consult_file/2 has gone!
* INSTALL: Win32: nice looking installation procedure, based on the
WISE installation expert package.
* ADDED: A *-> B ; C (softcut).
* FIXED: Random generation for machines that use rand(). Still
poor, but then this function is bad. Maybe use our own someday.
* ADDED: Win32: console support for variable-pitch fonts and user
selection of fonts.
* FIXED: <String> =.. X, found by Robert van Engelen.
Version 2.7.13
==============
* FIXED: prolog_frame_attribute/3 to include the arguments in the
goal. Found by Andreas Schlemminger.
* FIXED: listing (clause/2) for predicates holding if->then;else or
a;b in their body. Found by Andreas Schlemminger.
* FIXED: shell/1 for Windows platforms (waited almost indefinitely
before executing the program).
* ADDED: plregtry.dll and registry.dll, providing access to the
Win32 registry database.
* ADDED: setting up a DDE server for better interaction with the
Windows 95 shell (direct edit and consult from the explorer).
Version 2.7.13 (ALPHA)
======================
* ADDED: mode update for open/[3,4] to write at any location in an
existing file.
Version 2.7.12
==============
* FIXED: behaviour of the tracer. Notably included missing fail-ports
from the trace. Also fixed the box-counts for the profiler.
* ADDED: expand_term/2 now first tries term_expansion/2 in the module
that is being loaded. After that it tries the module user.
* FIXED: Various improvements to the explain facility, notably much
better location of predicate cross-references.
Version 2.7.11
==============
* MODIFIED: feature(version, Version) and PLVERSION are now numeric.
* FIXED: reporting out-of-stack now never calls the Prolog exception
handler to avoid a real crash.
* ADDED: Syntax for maintaining source-location inside term-expansion.
If a term of the form $source_location(File, Line):Clause is found,
not the current, but the given location will be recorded with the
clause)
Version 2.7.10
==============
* PORT: More changes to PL_unify_term() by Franklin Chen. Now really
compiles on MkLinux.
* FIXED: retract/1 once more. Now tested on all combinations of
(non-)unit-clause and with(out) module specifier.
Version 2.7.9
=============
* FIXED: interaction between tracer and garbage-collector, sometimes
causing an assertion-failure in the garbage collector when tracing.
Reported by Lourens van der Meij.
* CHANGED: flag/3 now handles full 32-bit integers and double
float values. Old version was limited to tagged ints and didn't
do floats.
* PORT: Rewrote PL_unify_term() to avoid using va_list *. May or
may not help. Problem arises on the PowerMac version of Linux
when compiling pl-fli.c. Reported by Franklin Chen.
* PORT: Portability patches for AIX 3.2/4.1: avoid name-clash with
hz and fid_t. Contributed by Kay Roemer.
* FIXED: documentation of PL_unify_list() interface function.
* FIXED: name/2 to behave correctly in the tracer. This problem
may appear with more foreign predicates and maybe requires a
more fundamental solution. Reported by Chan Kam Fai.
* FIXED: retract/1 on non-unit-clauses. Thanks to Liviu Badea.
Version 2.7.8
=============
* Some fixes to the Makefile. No functional change.
Version 2.7.7
=============
* DOC: Added documentation for PL_unify_term(), making its specs
`official'.
* ADDED: PL_query(PL_QUERY_VERSION) to find the version of Prolog
running. Used by plwin.exe to display the correct version in the
window titlebar.
* WIN32 Process creation: added win_exec/2 and changed shell/1 such
that shell('<Command> &') behaves as win_exec(<Command>, normal).
* WIN32 DDE: Added dde_poke/[3,4] to support DDE poke operation required to
communicate with the sybase database for Windows. MODIFIED
dde_request/3 to return a string object rather then an atom to
avoid filling the atom-space.
* WIN32: For filenames, ~ is expanded to %home%. When not present,
%homedrive%%homepath% is used, which expands to NT's notion of the
home directory. Finally, '/' is used as fallback.
* MODIFIED: Changed directory structure of make rt-install to be
the same as normal installation.
* FIXED: Installation on Pentium Pro: bad detection of canonical
system type by autoconf's config.sub. Updated configure.in to
use autoconf 2.10.
* FIXED: Backtracking on floats and large integers appearing in the head.
The VM instructions H_FLOAT and H_INTEGERS handling these didn't
trail the argument. Bug introduced in 2.7.0. Thanks to Peter
Terptra for reporting.
Version 2.7.6
=============
* MODIFIED: Added some more support for very deeply nested terms on
the last arguments (long lists beeing one of them) by introducing
a new compilation schema for such terms. Also modified numbervars/4
to exploit right-recursion of terms.
* MODIFIED: Argument-stack default-limit changed from 8 KB to 1 MB
for machines with dynamic stacks. 16 KB for others. This limits
most of all the depth of terms handled by assert/retract.
* FIXED: Emacs-interaction bug using history. Thanks to Dave Moffat.
* FIXED: decompilation (retract, listing, etc.) for predicates with
0 arguments. Reported by Dave Moffat.
* FIXED: configuration for system where readline requires -lcurses
rather then -ltermcap (and the latter is not present).
Version 2.7.5
=============
* FIXED: typo in float <-> long conversion problem.
* FIXED: plld now passes -D* to the compiler rather then the linker.
Version 2.7.4
=============
* FIXED: handling of floating-point conversion to integers on machines
raising SIGPFE on l = (long)f when f is out of the long range. Thanks
to Sven.Hader@Informatik.TU-Chemnitz.DE (Sven Hader). The problem
appears at least on Linux running on a Pentium.
* MODIFIED: Added -F file flag to select from multiple initialisation
scripts, just like -f file. Old versions only loaded plrc. The
new version by default loads <program>.rc. -F none stops loading
this file.
* FIXED: plld: gave error code 1 (always). Added various flags: -v
-help, -pl. Updated manuals
* FIXED: PL_next_solution() detection of non-deterministic success
(reported deterministic for actually non-deterministic goals).
* ADDED: For XPCE users: nice graphical frontend for the online help
functions. Working on much better Prolog mode for PceEmacs.
* PORTABILITY: Removed void * arithmetic in pl-setup.c, removed
a couple of other non-strict-ansi things there. Added configure
for alloca(). Reported to compile using IRIX 5.3 native compiler
now.
* FIXED: Sclose() flushed write-buffer for read-only streams.
* ADDED: read_term/[2,3]: reading with various options
* FIXED: copy_term/2: handling of combination of ground compound
terms and shared variables.
* FIXED: PL_next_solution() detection of determistic success.
* ADDED: concat_atom/3 for concatenating multiple atoms with a separator.
* FIXED: Online manual generation for dynamic/1 and friends. Parser
now deletes \verb from summaries.
* FIXED: $xr_member (underlying explain/[1,2]) for clauses containing
string objects (crashed). Improved various details to explain/[1,2]
* MODIFIED: Quoted writing of an invalid float yields '$Infinity' or '$NaN',
unquoted Infinity or NaN.
Version 2.7.3
=============
* FIXED: ?- expand_term(A,B), reported by Fergus Henderson.
* FIXED: cleanup after calling Prolog-defined arithmetic functions
(caused a crash when two arithmetic functions are called in the
same context).
* Renamed PL_reinit_hook() to PL_initialise_hook(), which reflects
more the current function. Use this to register the readline
interface, so it is available while loading .plrc. Se also
pl-extend.c and its public copy stub.c.
Version 2.7.2
=============
* ADDED: features `debug_on_error' and `report_error'
* ISO: If a predicate has no clauses and is defined either dynamic,
multifile or discontiguous, it is considered defined. This used to
hold only for dynamic predicates.
Version 2.7.1
=============
* FIXED: Signal/readline/abort interfaces for the Win32 versions, so
signals are handled correctly again and readline-based input handling
works.
* FIXED: bug in setup of memory-base pointers, causing all versions
to fail who allocate memory higher than 128MB, which includes the
win32 version under win32s (Windows 3.1)
* FIXED: ar/ranlib configuration (notably for BSD systems, such as
SunOs 4.1).
* FIXED: do not load readline interface if the input is not a terminal.
This bug prevented constructs in shell-scripts such as pl << _EOS_ ...
Version 2.7.0
=============
* FIXED: HPUX compilation thanks to Gordon Streeter.
* WIN32: The kernel is now in libpl.dll, which comes with two toplevel
drivers: plcon.exe for a standard IO version and plwin.exe for the
windows based version. New directory embed with the sources of
both toplevels.
* FIXED: memory leak after assert/retract of code holding floats,
32-bit integers or strings (not lists of char-codes). Also
provides more compact code for floats and large integers
(both small and large integers require 2 words, doubles 3 words).
* IMPROVED: More compact representation of compiled floats, long
integers and strings.
* MODIFIED: Complete rewrite of the internal datastructures. The
aim is to avoid mixing pointers and unsigned longs on the stacks
and thus remove the various assumptions on the memory model underlying
the prior versions. See pl-data.h for details.
* IMPROVED: Lifted the maximum number of variables in a clause from
256 to 65536, maximum arity of predicates from 128 to 1024. Both
numbers are fairly arbitrary and can be raised further at the cost
of wasting a little more memory.
Version 2.6.0
=============
* ADDED: plld and manpage for creating embedded executables.
* FIXED: flush output of terminal streams while halting.
* ADDED: option stand_alone for qsave_program to create stand-alone
executables!
* INSTALL: The executables are now installed in $(PLBASE)/bin/$(ARCH),
i.e. using a different directory for each platform, so multiple
platforms are supported more easily.
* MODIFIED: Drastic reorganisation of arithmetic handling:
- All arithmetic is now handled using 32-bit longs and 64-bit
doubles.
- Smaller integers (within the range described by the features
min_tagged_integer ... max_tagged_integer) are represented
internally as tagged integers. Larger integers and doubles
are represented as `indirect data'.
- A generic representation for `indirect', covering uniform
handling of them by the virtual machine, unify and garbage
collector. This deals with strings, doubles and `bignums'.
- New interface between the arithmetic functions and the
arithmetic predicates (is/2, >/2, etc.) as well as their
virtual machine instructions. This new interface is faster.
and avoids unnecessary type-conversions.
- Augmented/renumbered the virtual machine instructions, making
old saved states worthless.
- Fixed a couple of functions translating between floats and
integers: integer/1, ceil/1, floor/1, float_integer_part/1,
truncate/1, etc. for handling large numbers correctly.
- Added the feature float_format to define how floats are
printed by write/1, print/1, etc.
* MODIFIED: Disconnected readline and Win32 I/O window interface to
a separate module. This is a necessary precondition to arrive at
a modular and embedible Prolog engine for Win32. See pl-rl.c
* FIXED: unknown/2 (reporting instantiation fault).
Version 2.5.6
=============
* FIXED: ceil/1, floor/1 and integer/1 to handle large floating point
numbers correctly.
* MODIFIED: write and friends to print floating point numbers using
the `%g' format by default, printing large floats as -for example-
3e20. Use format with the ~f option to format floats as you please.
* FIXED: on some machines <assert.h> requires <stdio.h> to be included.
configure now checks for this.
* FIXED: .qlf file-magic verification.
* FIXED: Some minor portability problems: test for CC supporting -c -o
combination, solaris prototypes for random and srandom added, changed
system parameter detection for file-table-size and page-size to use
sysconf() when available. Compilation is now silent on solaris 2.5,
except for a number of `might not be initialised' warnings in pl-wam.c
that aren't correct (also, these are not reported by other versions
of gcc).
Version 2.5.5
=============
* FIXED: Important bug in =@=, also used by bagof/setof, leading to
crashes on some structures and failure on structural equal terms
on others.
* FIXED: Crash in the tracer under some circumstances, reported
by Michael Schulz.
* FIXED: loading Quick Load Files that do not contain modules.
Version 2.5.4
=============
* FIXED: read/1 for reading negative floating point numbers (2.5.x bug),
thanks to Bill Jones.
* FIXED: read/1, etc. for reading a single variable. Found by Luu Tran.
* FIXED: DCG expansion error found by Keith Whitwell.
Version 2.5.3
=============
* ADDED: ISO at_end_of_stream/[0,1] and peek_byte/[1,2].
* Fixed and faster nth0/3 and nth1/3 implementations by Martin Jansche.
* New pl(1) manual page by Martin Jansche. Thanks.
* PORT: Ron Ferguson mailed me a couple of fixes for the NeXT machine,
using release 2 of the C-compiler from the standard development system.
Thanks.
* FIXED: decompilation (listing, retract, etc.) for clauses using the
new (2.5.x) A_REAL instruction.
* FIXED: \=/2 and recorded/3 for handling shared variables. Found
by Joerg Garbers.
* ADDED: edit definition for emacsclient(1).
* Fixed unify (=/2) for unification of two floats. Reported by Dave
Moffat.
Version 2.5.2
=============
* FIXED: PL_retry() and friends were lacking from the new SWI-Prolog.h
* FIXED: PL_cons_functor() and PL_cons_list(), also fixing variable
handling in bagof/setof. Thanks to Khanh Doan for reporting.
* ADDED: string_concat/3 with same semantics as concat/3, but unbound
will be unified with a string object.
* ADDED: rl_read_init_file(+File) and rl_add_history(+Line) for better
readline interaction. Added readline.3 to the standard installed
manual set.
* ADDED: file_name_extension/3 to reason about filename extensions in
a machine-independent manner. Fixes Win32 associations if the filename
has uppercase extension.
Version 2.5.1 (released for Win32 only)
=======================================
* FIXED: Stack expansion for some foreign predicates using the local
stack as temporary area for machines with exception-based stack-overflow
handling that do not provide the address of the segmentation fault to
the handler (Win32, Linux).
* FIXED: Linux: repeated handling of the sequence Control-C, abort.
* FIXED: Crash after the system has ran out of some stacks on machines
with exception-based stack-overflow handling and POSIX signals.
Solaris, Linux and Win32 are the examples I know of.
* FIXED: CVT_NUMBER and CVT_ATOMIC constants in SWI-Prolog.h,
breaking name(+Float, -Chars).
* FIXED: plus/3 for +, -, + instantiation (2.5.0 introduced typo).
* FIXED: prototype declaraction reported by Martin Jansche.
Version 2.5.0
=============
* Added features `trace_gc' and `gc'.
* Added `pl -arch' to get the architecture identifier easily for
installation and makefiles
* New implementation of copy_term/2 that shares common compound
sub-terms.
* Totally new foreign language interface using `term-references' to
allow for garbage collection and stack-shifts with active foreign
code. Ported all foreign predicates to the new interface. This
interface also allows for generating multiple alternatives for
a Prolog goal from C.
For compatibility with old foreign code, see README.oldforeign.
* FIXED: optimised compilation of A is X (i.e. second argument is
a variable).
* COMPILER: improved compilation of floating-point arithmetic using
-O (optimised), avoiding unnecessary copying of floating point
numbers to the global stack.
****************************************************************
INCOMPATIBLE FOREIGN LANGUAGE INTERFACE
****************************************************************
Version 2.1.15
==============
* FIXED: read/1 to push the load context when reading end-of-file, so
the following works:
term_expansion(end_of_file, end_of_file) :-
prolog_load_context(file, Path),
format('Finished loading ~w~n', [Path]).
* FIXED: abolish/2 on imported procedures. Reported by Peter Barth.
Version 2.1.14
==============
* DISTRIBUTION: Removed various out-of-date files from the distribution:
Makefile.win, Makefile.dos, etc.
* WIN32S: Fixed problem in the garbage collector.
* WIN32: Improved cputime for NT ('95 and win32s use the old code).
* MANUAL: Martin Jansche <martin@pc03.idf.uni-heidelberg.de> has send me
patches for the manual, fixing many smaller and bigger mistakes in it.
Thanks!
* DEBUG: Added stuff for debugging for different memory models on Unix
machines with an mmap() that can map memory at the addresses normally
used by the target machine. See morecore.c
Version 2.1.13
==============
* WIN32: Fixed error reporting of shell/1.
* FIXED: added a flush() after completing the user-query. This gives
better output for ?- write(hello).
* FIXED: file-name conversion cache management. This cache is used
by absolute_file_name/3.
Version 2.1.12
==============
* Most of these fixed after comments from David Plummer. Thanks.
* FIXED: displayq for ','(...)
* FIXED: read/1 and friends to handle {}(..) and [](...) correctly.
* FIXED: format/[2,3] to be able to write unlimited-length output,
provided there are no `pending' ~t's.
* COMPAT: absolute_file/3 to accept list of access-modes
* MODIFIED: access_file/2 to succeed on write and append mode if the
file does not exist, but the directory can be written.
* FIXED: unification order in translating grammar --> {goal}. Noted
by Andreas Steiner.
* FIXED: Temporary-buffer management in Svfprintf() and friends.
Version 2.1.11
==============
* FIXED: functor(X, 8, 0) to yield X = 8.
* DELETED: library_directory(.). Gives too much problems because the
system picks wrong files or directories.
Version 2.1.10
==============
* ISO: added compliant open/4 predicate.
* Moved all printing of the system (banner, prompt and warnings to
use user_error (=stderr) rather than user_output (=stdout), so
it becomes easier to use Prolog's standard output. Stderr is
unbuffered, several predicates that will output more than one
character now use a `temporary buffer' to reduce IO-load.
* ISO: Added arithmetic functions: rem/2, ** (= ^), ceiling (= ceil),
float/1, float_fractional_part/1, float_integer_part/1, truncate/1,
sign/1 and round/1 (= integer/1).
* ISO Syntax: Changed quoted atom and string syntax to support character
escapes, broken lines, etc. These changes can be switched off
using ?- set_feature(character_escapes, false). for backward
compatibility.
Also, 0b110, 0xa2 and 0o70 (binary, hexadecimal and octal) number
representations are now recognised.
* ISO: Added features bounded, integer_rounding_function, max_arity.
* WIN32: Various changes to the console: use standard colours and
font, allow for changing colours. Bind Control-Z to end-of-file
(alternative for Control-D, which is still valid).
* WIN32: `pl state.qlx' now assumes state.qlx is the result of a
qsave_program/[1,2] and automatically loads the state. This
allows for associating states with the emulator. Also, pl file.pl
will automatically chdir/1 to the directory containing the file
and load the file before entering the toplevel.
* WIN32: Fixed some filename case problems: expand_file_name/2 now
works case-insensitive. Comparing files for sorting is done case
insenstive.
* WIN32: Command-line breaking now handles "quoted arguments". Only
double quotes and no escape (I don't know the Windows'95 escape
conventions).
* WIN32: Fixed filename completion from console window.
* INSTALL: Fixed detection of non-gnu/gnu make
* FIXED: use_module/1, etc. to import predicates exported using the
export/1 directive instead of the module/2 directive.
Version 2.1.9
=============
* FIXED: Updated stack-shifter code for the changed layout of the
environment-stack frames. This bug prevented pl-gc.c to compile
on machines having no virtual-memory based stack allocation.
Version 2.1.8
=============
* ADDED: check in exit code that removes possibly incomplete .qlf and
bootfiles if an error occurred while building the file.
* FIXED: WIN32 tmp_file/2. This fixes help/1.
* FIXED: configure for users of a shell that doesn't export $PWD and
the system chooses the install-sh script.
Version 2.1.7
=============
* FIXED: management of clause index-table. Old code lead to indefinite
growing of these tables with repetative assert/retract
* ADDED: Improved dirty-management on clause indexing system to improve
the performance on retract from hashed dynamic predicates.
* ADDED: absolute_file_name/3: options file_type, file_errors and
solutions for compatibility.
* Win32: compiled (with small updates) for Win32
* ADDED: Implemented open_null_stream/1 by defining a null-stream in
SWI-Prologs stream-i/o package to avoid the /dev/null dependency.
* ADDED: Saving current operator declarations with qsave_program/[1,2].
* FIXED: Garbage-collector error.
* FIXED: predicate-reference count problem
* ADDED: style_check(+dynamic) to report on manipulation of predicates
that are active in the interpreter.
Version 2.1.6
=============
* INSTALL: installs pl in the SWI-Prolog tree and just creates a link
from the binary directory. Makes it easier to move and redistribute
the SWI-Prolog binaries.
* CHPL.c: fixed conflict for basename()
* FIXED: file-searching cache returning alternate answers in different
order.
Version 2.1.5
=============
* ADDED: notrace(+Goal) to run Goal invisible to the debugger.
* ADDED: open_shared_object/3 to be able to pass flags to dlopen().
* CLAUSE INDEXING: version 2.1.5 provides hashing to speed up first
argument indexing. Numerous changes had to be made to realise this:
Indirection in the clause chain of predicates, implementation of a
lazy automatic system to guess the proper way to index a predicate,
a new clause-reference count system (avoiding problems with manipulation
of `active' predicates. The representation of predicate and clauses
has changed in various ways.
* INSTALL: Changed various things to the configure options and detection,
to the defaults make more sence. Upgraded to autoconf 2.4, fixed for
cross-compilation.
* PORT: Fixed various things for the Linux/ELF port. Tested on
Linux 1.2.13 running libc-5.0.9. Compiled with gcc-2.7.0.
* PERFORMANCE: Implemented automatic rehashing of all (previously)
fixed-size hash-tables. Prevents performance degradation on very
large programs.
* FIXED: profile/3 problem (leading to crashes).
* FIXED: pl -O bug: trailing of is/2 was not handled properly.
Version 2.1.4
=============
* MODIFIED: Changed definition of absolute_file_name/2. Moved
absolute_file_name/3 from library(quintus) to a built-in predicate.
* ADDED: file_directory_name/2 and file_base_name/2.
* ADDED: end_of_file is now passed to term_expansion/2.
* DOC: Many updates.
* FIXED: read/1 for foo.%comment (i.e. no space between the . and the
comment). Note that foo./*comment*/ doesn't work as this will be
tokenised as `foo', `./*', `comment', `*/'.
* ADDED: lazy recomputation of clause indexing. This notably speeds
up loading .qlf and bootfiles.
* ADDED: hash_term/2 for advanced indexing of databases.
* ADDED: setting file_search_path through the command line using:
pl -p mydir=/foo/bar.
* FIXED: Semantics of ensure_loaded/1 if the file is already loaded,
combined with the module system. See ensure_loaded/1.
* FIXED: Grammar rule compiler's handling of non-proper lists in the
head or body (lists ending in a variable). Lists of more then one
element are now translated into append/3. The following now compiles
ok: string([H|T]) --> [H|T].
* MODIFIED: term_to_atom/2 and atom_to_term/3 to fail silently on a
syntax error. Both predicates now also accept a string in the place
of the atom to parse strings: term_to_atom(X, "foo(bar)") works as
expected.
* ADDED: `swi' and `foreign' aliases to file_search_path/2.
* MODIFIED: Grammar rule translator now uses 'C'/3 instead of '$char'/3
to extract the head. Compatibility.
* MODIFIED: at_initialisation/1 is now called at_initialization/1.
* INSTALL: Fixed Makefile and configure to be able to build the system
for multiple platforms.
* ADDED: Infra-structure for making portable saved-states (equivalents
of boot files):
+ initialization/1 (goals to run at initialization)
+ volatile/1 (predicates for which not to save clauses)
+ require/1 (define we require this predicate)
+ autoload/[0,1] (autoload needed things now)
+ qsave_program/[1,2] (make a quick-loadable state)
* ADDED: compound/1 to test for compound terms.
* FIXED: compilation of ``foo:Head :- Body'' to be equivalent to
foo:(Head :- Body).
* FIXED: problem in read/1 and number_chars/2 that may have lead to
garbage collection errors.
* FIXED: setarg/3 integrated in the trail-system. Removes its
choicepoint and ensures data consistency.
Version 2.1.3
=============
* ADDED: setarg/3 for extra-logical assignment to arguments of terms.
* MODIFIED: PL_new_integer() now returns a floating point value if the
argument exceeds SWI-Prolog's integer range.
* ADDED: Automatically dumps the top of the runtime stack on floating
point exceptions.
* FIXED: Trap floating point exceptions for the win32 version.
Version 2.1.2
=============
* FIXED: read/1 problem. Try reading just '0'. ... Reported by
Daniela Genius.
* FIXED: `toplevel' variable expansion system, leading to various strange
behaviours in handling queries from the user. It now can also handle
cases as:
?- X = 5.
?- X is $X + 1.
Version 2.1.1
=============
* MODIFIED: DCG translation of free variables now calls phrase/3, which
has been changed slightly to deal with `un-parsing'. Modification
is probably not complete, but it fixes some problems encountered by
Michael Boehlen.
* MODIFIED: keysort/2 is now stable with regard to multiple values on
the same key. Makes this predicate compatible with SICStus and
Quintus.
* FIXED: :- dynamic, :- multifile, :- module_transparent and
:- discontiguous to accept Module:Name/Arity, ...
* Moved call/[1..] into the compiler. call/[1..6] is removed from
library(quintus) as it is now part of the base system. Also fail/0
and true/0 are now handled by virtual machine instructions.
* Upgrade to autoconf 2.3, fixed usage of `tr' for Solaris 2.x and
with that the configuration of --enable-shared.
* FIXED: number_chars/2 and name/2 now handle floating point numbers.
* FIXED: interaction between chdir/1 and absolute_file_name/2.
* FIXED: format('~*c', [10,45]) (or more in general, providing an argument
to ~c to print the character multiple times). Thanks to Michael Boehlen.
* FIXED: PrologPrompt() to allow reading standard input from the -g and/or
-t goal options.
Version 2.1.0
==============
* Added facilities to allow for embedding SWI-Prolog in C applications.
* Fixed semantics of the cut in toplevel queries by compiling the query
instead of using meta-call.
* Fixed bagof(A, member([B, C]), L) to yield L = [B,C] instead of making
new variables.
* Fixed typo in dde.pl (reported by Thiebaut Moeglin)
* Integration of NeXT patches from Thomas Hoppe (hoppet@cs.tu-berlin.de).
Probably still not 100% ok, but should be closer now.
* Fixed XPCE event dispatching for pl -tty
* PL_univg() C-interface function added for supporting XPCE > 4.8.10
with better interface performance.
* Fixed operator precedence problem (reported by Dave Moffat)
Version 2.0.9
=============
* ADDED: HPUX interface for shared libraries, but a HPUX guru should
fix the import/export details (line was too slow to browse to lots
of manual pages).
* FIXED: pl-incl.h typo (breaks IRIX 5.3 port and propably others)
* FIXED: HPUX detection of mmap()'able stacks fixed.
* FIXED: generation of include/SWI-Exports, the AIX export declaration
file.
Version 2.0.8
=============
* FIXED: loading shared objects using dlopen() for solaris 2.x
* FIXED: shlib.pl current_foreign_library/2 administration.
Version 2.0.7
=============
* FIXED: compilation (boot and .qlf) now donot look for compiled
(.qlf) files.
* CHANGED: Default goal writing the banner is now in the flag
$banner_goal (used by XPCE as a shared library).
Version 2.0.6
=============
* CHANGED: retractall/1 implementation is now compatible to Quintus,
avoiding the hacky redefinition in library(quintus.pl). The difference
is that now the argument will only be matched against the clause-head.
on a match the clause will be removed, regardless of its body. Makes
no difference for retractall on facts, but does make a difference on
clauses with a non-just-true body. retractall/1 is now a deterministic
foreign predicate that no longer decompiles the clause body, making
it faster too.
* FIXED: made .qlf files independent of the directory they where compiled.
* FIXED: Path canonisation problem
* FIXED: loading .qlf files holding already-defined modules
* ADDED: file_search_path file-location system
* ADDED: access_file(File, exists) to check for bare existence.
* FIXED: Another clear_uninitialised() problem related to if-then-else
causing garbage collector and possibly stack-shift errors. As the
implementation is now changed radically, this problem should be gone
forever ...
* FIXED: copy_term/2. Now creates more efficient terms (less references)
and no longer creates bad references.
Version 2.0.5
=============
* MODIFIED: Replaced libc based stream IO with more general IOSTREAM
package. Deleted folding capabilities as just about any IO device
has these built-in these days. These changes are to facilate embedding
in window-based environments that do not support stdio. See pl-stream.c
* FIX: dwim_match/2 for single character mismatch.
* ADDED: atom_chars/2, number_chars/2, atom_char/2, various new
unix/1 arguments.
Version 2.0.4
=============
* MODIFIED: Consult and friends (ensure_loaded, use_module, etc.)
no longer change directory to the directory in which the file
lives. As a consequence, directives have to use prolog_load_context/2
or source_location/2 to find the context directory of the directive.
consult and related directives still load relative to the directory
in which the currently loading file lives.
* Added prolog_load_context/2 to provide context for directives.
Actually moved from library(quintus) to the boot image as the
predicate is now necessary.
* Added -DO_RUNTIME support to make a version that is more suitable
for distribution of products: no profiling, no tracer, no readline
and no interrupt handling. Setup using configure --enable-runtime
Version 2.0.3
=============
* Fixed: loading qlf files now push the source context while running
a directive, so source_location/2 should work while executing a
directive from a .qlf file.
* Fixed: recognise MAP_ANONYMOUS for configuring mmap() based stacks.
* Added feature(dynamic_stacks, Bool) for detection of virtual memory
based stack management.
* Fixed feature(open_shared_object, Bool) (Michael Kauschke)
Version 2.0.2
=============
* Fixed pl [options] -c file ...
* Improved VMI implementation for (if -> then ; else), \+ and (a;b).
Reduces overhead of these to about 1/3th.
* Added VMI support for fast calling of foreign system predicates that
are called with only variable arguments (i.e. `test(X) :- integer(X)'
is optimised; `test(X) :- integer(3)' is not). Provides big speedup
for fail, true, integer/1 (etc.), and many other commonly called
foreign predicates.
* Support for mmap() using MAP_ANON. Avoids a file-descriptor and hopefully
improves portability of dynamic stacks.
* Fix for Solaris 2.4 mmap() detection.
* Fix: added autoconf test for using asm("nop") in pl-wam.c or use slower
but more portable C alternative (fixes RS/6000 version)
Version 2.0.1
=============
* FIX in garbage collector of 2.0.0 was only half the story. Should
be ok now. Thanks to Thomas Hoppe for supplying me with the error
report.
* FIX & performance: current_functor/2 with the first argument is
instantiated.
* Installation: the libraries are now installed as
$(prefix)/lib/$(PL)-$(PLVERSION). A possibly existing executable is moved
from $(prefix)/bin/$(PL) to $(prefix)/bin/$(PL).old
Version 2.0.0
=============
* Added `Quick Load File' compilation support. See qcompile/1 and
qload/1. Alpha stage.
* FIXED infrequent segmentation violation occurring on machines with
dynamic stack management, but whose signal handler is not provided
the address of the fault (Linux and Solaris 2 for example). The
crash can be in various foreign predicates that use the local stack
as scratch area.
* Important FIX to the garbage collector. This bug may happen iff
a garbage collection is invoked while clauses are active that have
\+ or (a -> b ; c) constructs that are not yet active. Generally
the problem is reported as an inconsistency in the relocation count.
* Fix to virtual machine encoding that applies to versions compiled
with gcc 2.x and whose text-space starts at a high address.
* Modified absolute_file_name/2 to take specifications of the
form absolute_file_name(library('shell.pl'), X).
* Various fixes to the new .qlf format and support for compiliation
of individual or combined sources into .qlf files. .qlf files may
now be loaded as normal sourcefiles instead of only as `boot' file.
Version 1.9.6:
==============
* Fixed for BIG_ENDIAN machines (Intel, VAX, ...)
* Windows version: added dde_execute/2
* Added Quintus compatible foreign-language (C) interface.
* Changed .qlf (former .wic) format drastically. The current
format gives about 30% shorter files and loads twice as fast.
* Changed basic clause representation. VM op-codes are now
full machine words, avoiding the need for the `XR' table
management and related indirections. Simplifies the instruction set,
speedup for compiler, decompiler (retract, clause) and execution
(about 10%). Enlarges program-size with about 10%.
Version 1.9.5:
==============
alpha-2
* Fixed prolog_frame_attribute/3 for key=parent.
* Added at_initialisation(+Goal) for initialisation hooks
* Fixed tracer problems introduced in 1.9.5-alpla-1.
alpha-1
* Moved sourcecode administration from predicate to individual
clauses. Purpose: better source-level debugger support, better
handling of multifile predicates.
* Recompiling files holding clauses for multifile predicates now
works properly. The clauses of the latest loaded file will
always be the last.
* Removing a predicate from a file and recompiling the file
now actually removes the definition from the Prolog database,
even if you are not using modules.
* Added prolog_frame_attribute(Frame, clause, ClauseRef) to get a
reference to the currently running clause.
* Added clause_property/2 to get the source information from a
specific clause.
* Compiled state (-c compilation) has changed a little. The system
does not load old states.
Version 1.9.4. Redefining system-predicates is no longer allowed. This
may be overruled using :- redefine_system_predicate(+Head). Fix in
Makefile (from Kayvan Sylvan): fixes shell syntax error make install.
Give warning on user-files trying to load module `user' or `system'
(this is why library(system) could not be loaded). Fixed whereis/1 to
find locations of predicates. Fixed trace/[1,2] to avoid low-level
errors on bad specifications. Specification now also accept the much
more natural ?- trace(append, fail). as a shorthand for [+fail]. Added
autoloader handling to ed/1, listing/1, spy/1 and trace/2. Manipulating
not-yet-loaded autoload predicates will trap the autoloader. Added hook
for help-system, so we provide a decent help-window when running under
the XPCE graphical environment. The hook is called show_help_file/2.
Fixed rename_file/2 (bug introduced in pl-1.9.2). Fixed versions
Windows-specific problems. Added prolog_to_os_filename/2 to convert
between internal and external names (DOS/Windows). Integrated the 1.9.4
patches for the Windows version. Fixed to compile on AIX. Fixed
compilation on some Solaris version.
Version 1.9.3. Fix index/1 problem introduced in 1.9.2. Fix
stack-expansion problem in all versions that lack hardware support for
stack-expansion. Some cleanup in pl-gc.c to make clean compilation with
-Wall and -DO_DEBUG possible. Regenerated common prototype file
pl-funcs.h using mkproto tool (and some editing).
Version 1.9.2. Configuration is now based on GNU's autoconf. All
md-*.h files have been removed from the distribution. $arch/2, $home/1
and $version/1 have been replaced by feature/2. A predicate read_link/3
has been added to read symbolic links. Installation is tested on SunOs
4.1.3, Solaris 2.3 and Linux 1.0.9 with readline 2.0.3.
Version 1.9.1. Added: Windows DDE interface, Added Unix/System-V (?)
interface to dlopen() and friends to access shared objects dynamically.
Version 1.9.0. Incorporation of various ports: md-netbsd.h, md-mswin.h
and md-msdos.h. There is a binary distribution for Windows in
win-pl.tgz of the main ftp server (swi.psy.uva.nl). The DOS and Windows
versions are created using the WATCOM-C/32 toolkit.
=======================================================================
Version 1.8.12. Fixed tracer option `f' (fail) used on the exit port of
a goal. Thanks to Thomas Hoppe.
Version 1.8.8. Fix in the parser to avoid some bad syntax-error
messages. Also fixed spurious crashes trying to read bad-syntax-terms
of the form ?- atom,.
New in the quintus.pl library: initialization/1, random/3, numbervars/3
and absolute_file_name/3.
Version 1.8.7 includes the catch/throw-like control structures
block(+Label, +Goal, -Rval), fail(+Label), exit(+Label, +Rval) and
!(+Label). Also new is explain(+Anything) which will try to tell you a
lot of what the system knows about the term you entered. Additions and
suggesions are welcome. Also new: library(bim): A partial Prolog-by-BIM
(tm) compatibility package by Henk Vandecasteele. Thanks.
Further fixes:
* Bug in detecting stack-overflow for the PC/linux version.
* Handling of SWI_HOME_DIR (fixes installation problem for
XPCE/SWI-Prolog).
* atom_length/2: give warning (instead of crash) on invalid
data-type (e.g. unbound, term).
* nth_clause/3: Removed errornous warning when cut-off and
fixed returning 0-reference for defined predicates without
clauses.
Version 1.8.6 defines phrase/[2,3] for accessing grammar rules and fixes
name/2 for numbers outside the integer range (yielding a float). A
predicate nth_clause/3 is added to provide access to specific clauses of
predicates. xmalloc(), xrealloc() are added to fix some problems when
linking with gnu-libraries.
Version 1.8.5 contains a few fixes for the SunOs-4/gcc-2.5 combination.
DONOT USE GCC-2.5.[123] as the optimiser appears broken. gcc-2.5.4 is
ok again.
Version 1.8.4 fixes =@=/2, contains a more logical form of arg/3, fixes
passing empty-string arguments from the Prolog command-line and fixes
some things for old non-ansi compilers. There are some extensions to
the quintus.pl compatibility library.
Version 1.8.3 Fixes some more readline problems having to do with
running SWI-Prolog as an inferior process under EMACS.
Version 1.8.2 fixes some serious problems in the tracer intoduced by
more global changes in 1.8.0.
Version 1.8.1 fixes load_foreign for both SunOs 4.1.3 and PC/Linux.
Extensive use of the stat(2) system call is reduced with some changes to
the file administration. This speeds up loading many small files by an
incredible amount, notably when reading over a (slow) network.
The manual is regenerated. There are not many changes, but the
PostScript files in these archives are totally different as we upgrated
LaTeX and dvips. Therefore the patch file **diff-1.8.0-1.8.1** does
*not* include the patches to the PostScript manual.
Version 1.8.0 includes a stack shifter, enabling dynamic stacks for
machines that do not offer hardware support by providing suitable access
to the virtual memory management. Fixed a bug in concat/3.
expand_file/2 is now sensitive to fileerrors/2 while expanding $var or
~user. More bugfixes to the readline interface. Manual page
contributed by Dave Sherrat. RS6000 port no longer uses -lbsd and
compiles on gcc.
================================================================
Version 1.7.2 should compile on Solaris 2.2 using gcc 2.4.5. It fixes
the usual couple of portability problems, the terminal interface when
connected to the XPCE graphics library. It ads line_count to
predicate_property to support a future graphical debugging tool.
Version 1.7.1 fixes a very serious memory allocation violation in the
connection to the readline library. Make sure to update from 1.7.0!
Version 1.7.0 contains a version linked with the GNU readline library
for bash/tcsh compatible line editing. The library readline is
distributed separately and must be installed before installing prolog.
The file readline-1.1.tar.gz contains the unmodified GNU sources.
librl-1.1.tar.z contains the binaries for PC/Linux.
================================================================
Version 1.6.18 contains a fix to load_foreign/[2,5] for PC/Linux.
[Version 1.6.17 has been reinstalled at Jun 1 23:16 with two prototype
fixes and a fix to save_program/1 necessary for the RS6000.]
Version 1.6.17 fixes some minor installation problems reported for
1.6.16. The online manual has been updated for trace/[1,2]. Callback
of undefined Prolog-predicates from C now correctly trap the autoloader.
Analysis of the PATH variable to find the Prolog executable has been
fixed. Nothing serious if you have a running system!
Version 1.6.16 integrates port to 386 System-V Unix made by Eric S.
Raymond (esr@snark.thyrsus.com), who also ported the shell scripts to
use sh rather than csh. The new predicates trace/1 and trace/2 allow
for tracing individual predicates non-interactively.
Version 1.6.15 eliminates some compiler limits, fixes a bug in
trail-stacks management and provides a much better port for PC/Linux.
Requires Linux kernel 99pl7 or later.
Version 1.6.14 provides 8 bit character support. All characters in the
range 128 ... 255 are treated as lowercase letters. op/3 is fixed to
actually delete operators when priority 0 is specified.
Version 1.6.13 implements standard order compatible to Quintus and
contains a fix of the module system which broke the Quintus.pl
replacement of retractall/1.
Version 1.6.12 is te result of integrating ports to LINUX, OS/2 and
HP/UX with the main-stream (SunOs).
