=head1 ABSTRACT
Language::Prolog::Yaswi implements a bidirectional interface to the
SWI-Prolog system (L).
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This package provides a bidirectional interface to SWI-Prolog. That
means that Prolog code can be called from Perl that can call Perl code
again and so on:
Perl -> Prolog -> Perl -> Prolog -> ...
(unfortunately, by now, the cicle has to be started from Perl,
although it is very easy to circunvent this limitation with the help
of a dummy Perl script that just calls Prolog the first time).
The interface is based on the set of classes defined in
Language::Prolog::Types. Package Language::Prolog::Sugar can also be
used to improve the look and readability of scripts mixing Perl and
Prolog code.
The interface to call Prolog from Perl is very simple, at least if you
are used to Prolog non deterministic nature.
=head2 SUBROUTINES
Grouped by export tag:
=over 4
=item :query
=over 4
=item swi_set_query($query1, $query2, $query3, ...)
Composes a query with all the parameters given and sets it.
The set of free variables found in the query is returned.
=item swi_set_query_module($query, $module)
Allows to set a query in a module different than the default.
=item swi_result
Returns the values binded to the variables in the query.
=item swi_next
Iterates over the query solutions.
If a new solution is available returns true, if not, closes the query
and returns false.
It has to be called after C to obtain the first
solution.
=item swi_var($var)
Returns the value binded to C<$var> in the current query/solution combination.
=item swi_vars(@vars)
Returns the values binded to C<@vars> in the current query/solution combination.
Actually, it accepts more powerfull contructions, i.e.
$a = swi_vars([X, Y, [Z]])
=item swi_query
Returns the current query with the variables binded to its values in
the current solution (or unbinded if swi_next has not been called
yet).
=item swi_cut
Closes the current query even if not all of its solutions have been
retrieved. Similar to prolog cut (C).
=item swi_find_all($query, @pattern)
iterates over $query and returns and array with @pattern binded to
every solution. i.e:
swi_find_all(member(X, [1, 3, 7, 21]), X)
returns the array C<(1, 3, 7, 21)> and
swi_find_all(member(X, [1, 3, 7, 21]), [X])
returns the array C<([1], [3], [7], [21])>.
More elaborate constructions can be used:
%mothers = swi_find_all(mother(X,Y), X, Y)
There is also an example of its usage in the SYNOPSIS.
=item swi_find_one($query, @pattern)
as C but only for the first solution.
=item swi_call($query)
runs the query once and returns true if a solution was found or false
otherwise.
=item swi_parse(@strings)
commodity interface to prolog predicate C. Converts
strings to prolog terms.
=item swi_eval(@strings)
parses C<@strings> and calls them on the prolog engine.
=back
=item :interactive
=over 4
=item swi_toplevel
mostly for debugging pourposes, runs SWI-Prolog shell.
=back
=item :load
=over 4
=item swi_inline @code
dumps C<@code> to a temporary file and Cs it from prolog.
Use C<$swi_temp_dir> to change the directory where the file is
created.
=item swi_inline_module @code
similar to C but using C to load the file.
=item swi_consult @files
=item swi_use_modules @modules
=back
=item :assert
=over 4
=item swi_assert($head =E @body)
=item swi_assertz($head =E @body)
add new definitions at the bottom of the database
=item swi_asserta($head =E @body)
adds new definitions at the top of the database
=item swi_facts(@facts)
commodity subroutine to add several facts to the database in one call
(a fact is a predicate with an empty body).
i.e.:
use Language::Prolog::Sugar functors=>[qw(man woman)];
swi_facts( man('teodoro'),
man('socrates'),
woman('teresa'),
woman('mary') );
=item swi_retractall(@heads)
loops over C<@heads> calling C Prolog predicate.
=back
=item :context
=over 4
=item $swi_module
allow to change the module for the upcoming queries.
use the C operator when changing their values ALWAYS!!!
i.e.:
local $swi_module='mymodule'
swi_set_query($query_from_mymodule);
=item $swi_converter
allows to change the way data is converter from Perl to Prolog.
You should really not use it for anything different than configuring
perl classes as opaque, i.e.:
$swi_converter->pass_as_opaque(qw(LWP::UserAgent
HTTP::Request
HTTP::Result))
... unless you know what you are doing!!!
=item $swi_temp_dir
see docs for L
=back
=item :run
=over 4
=item swi_init(@args)
lets init the prolog engine with a different set of arguments
(identical to the command line arguments for the C SWI-Prolog
executable.
Defaults arguments are C<-q> to stop the SWI-Prolog welcome banner
for being printed to the console.
Language::Prolog::Yaswi will automatically create a new engine with
the default arguments (or with the last passed via swi_init), when
needed.
=item swi_cleanup
releases the prolog engine.
Language::Prolog::Yaswi will release the engine when the script
finish, this function is usefull to release the engine to free
resources or to be able to init it again with a different set of
arguments.
=back
=back
=head2 CALLBACKS
Yaswi adds to SWI-Prolog three new predicates to call perl back.
All the calls are made in array contest and the Result value is always
a list. There is no way to make a call in scalar context other than
explicitly calling scalar.
=over 4
=item perl5_eval(+Code, -Result)
evaluates the Perl code passed on the atom C and
return the results as a list in C.
=item perl5_call(+Sub, +Args, -Result)
calls the Perl sub C with the arguments in the list C and
returns the list of results in C.
=item perl5_method(+Object, +Method, +Args, -Result)
calls the method C from the perl object C
