ANN: Dogelog Player 1.3.4 (Interactive Debugger)

Show all headers | View raw

Dear All,

We are happy to announce a new edition of
the Dogelog player:

- Enhanced library(fancy):
   As a convenience we provide the additional
predicate print/[1,2] which checks the flags of
the output stream. If the output stream has the
mask MASK_DST_CANS set, it will automatically
colorize the output. This is for example used in
the new interactive debugger to print goals.

- Enhanced library(tools):
Besides clause listing, the file also provides an
interactive debugger. The interactive debugger can
be invoked for a goal by the meta predicate trace/1.
The interactive debugger is implemented by means of
meta programming and therefore might executed slower
than call/1. On the other hand it allows inspecting
the Byrd Box ports, already supporting useful
command such as skip.

- Enhanced library(session):
The interactive debugger is still minimal, for example
it does not allow spy points yet. So the leap command
will leap into the next answer substitution. The end-user
might not want to continue with the next answer substitution
in leap mode. Therefore the top-level is now trace/1 aware,
in that it provides debugger commands as well, such
as switching to creep mode.

Have Fun!
