Logtalk 2.17.0 is now available for downloading

[Paulo Moura]

Hi!

Logtalk 2.17.0 is now available for downloading from the Logtalk web 
site:

        http://www.logtalk.org/

This version features a built-in debugger (implemented as a 
pseudo-object) and a set of shell scripts for improved packaging, 
installation, and integration of Logtalk with selected Prolog 
compilers. In addition, Logtalk can now be installed on Linux using a 
RPM package and installed on MacOS X using an Apple Installer package.


From the release notes:

* Added built-in debugging support implemented through the definition 
of a new pseudo-object named "debugger". Added "debug" compiler option. 
Renamed library entities "debuggerp" and "debugger" to, respectively, 
"event_dbgp" and "event_dbg".

* Improved installation instructions for multi-user environments. Added 
a shell script for installing Logtalk in Unix and Unix-like operating 
systems. Added a shell script for copying Logtalk xml, examples, and 
library directories to the user home directory.

* Added a logtalk.spec file for building Linux RPMs from sources.

* Added a set of shell scripts for easy integration of Logtalk with 
ECLiPSe, GNU Prolog, Qu-Prolog, SICStus Prolog, SWI-Prolog, and YAP.

* Corrected bug in the definition of the pseudo-object "user" that 
resulted in mixed up metapredicate and type predicate properties.

* Removed config files for outdated versions of Qu-Prolog, SWI-Prolog, 
ECLiPSe, K-Prolog, CIAO, YAP, Amzi! Prolog, LPA Win-Prolog, SICStus 
Prolog, and XSB.


The CVS tag for this release is "lgt2170".


Happy logtalking!

Paulo
