Re: [Info-gnuprologjava] GNU Prolog for Java on Android

[SUZUKI Hisao]

Thank you.  I managed to port it without any modification to
gnuprologjava-0.2.6.jar, but I think it will be better if

1. gnu.prolog.vm.Environment takes Reader/Writer rather than
   InputStream/OutputStream.  TextView and EditText in
   Android use Unicode characters.  Environment should have:

   Environment#setDefaultReader(java.io.Reader)
   Environment#setDefaultWriter(java.io.Writer)
   Environment(java.io.Reader, java.io.Writer)

2. gnu.prolog.vm.Environment#ensureLoaded(Term) stops soon
   for non-Prolog files.  For now I invoke ensureLoaded in
   another thread and interrupt it on timeout.

3. the Prolog parser accepts non-ASCII characters as part of
   comments and string literals.
