Language/Prolog/Yaswi version 0.02
==================================

Language::Prolog::Yaswi provides a bidirectional interface between
Perl and SWI-Prolog (http://www.swi-prolog.org/)


INSTALLATION

To install this module the SWI-Prolog executable "pl" has to be in the
PATH or alternatively the PL environment variable can be used to
select another executable name and location.

Type the following:

   perl Makefile.PL
   # or 'PL=/path/to/my/swi-prolog/executable perl Makefile.PL'
   make
   make test
   make install

pl.pl script should be copied to a place in the PATH (pl.pl is a
wrapper to run Prolog with support for calling Perl).


BUGS

This is a very early alpha release and lots of bugs should be
expected.

Specifically, it has been developed and tested only with the 5.1.x
series of SWI-Prolog.

It has not been tested whith segv-handling enabled (use configure
option --disable-segv-handling when compiling SWI-Prolog to disable
it).

There is not thread support yet.

Not tested under Windows, it may or may not work.

The programing interface should not be considered stable,
incompatibilities could be introduced in future releases.


DEPENDENCIES

This module requires SWI-Prolog already installed in your system and
these other modules and libraries:

	Language::Prolog::Types
	Language::Prolog::Sugar (recommended)
	Test::More (only for testing)
