Hi! Logtalk 2.17.2 is now available for downloading from the Logtalk web site: http://www.logtalk.org/ Logtalk is an open source object-oriented extension to the Prolog programming language. Integrating logic programming with object-oriented and event-driven programming, it is compatible with most Prolog compilers. It supports both prototypes and classes. In addition, it supports component-based programming through category-based composition. This version improves documentation for first time users, includes a new programming example, corrects some bugs related to operator handling and local dynamic predicates, updates the compiler to allow source files containing only directives, and replaces the examples Prolog loader utility files by Logtalk files, thus simplifying example loading for new users. From the release notes: * Updated the Logtalk compiler to allow compilation of source files which contain only directives and no entity definition. * Simplified loading of library and example entities by using Logtalk source files as loader files. * Some improvements to the documentation, including the QUICK_START file and the User Manual for first-time users, and to the example descriptions. * Corrected a bug in handling of local object operators that are also global operators. * Corrected a bug where dynamic directives are not being generated for dynamic predicates that lack a scope directive or an initial set of clauses. * Corrected a bug where local dynamic predicates would need a private scope directive in order to allow clauses of the predicate to be retracted. * Simplified compilation of dynamic and discontiguous predicate directives. * Added new "logic" example implementing a translator from logic propositions to conjunctive normal form. * Corrected a problem with wrong end-on-lines on some files. * Added a shell script for easy integration of Logtalk with CIAO Prolog. The CVS tag for this release is "lgt2172". Happy logtalking!
