Re: Networking in Prolog - a survey

I have briefly looked at PrologBeans. It seems similar to what I had
in mind, although of course more complex (in my case, the prolog side
and the java side are always in the same process).

Then, I don't unserstand your problem. If Prolog is embedded into
Java, then outside world knows only about Java. All networking ca nbe
done on Java level

A.L.

My problem is: I want two instances of my Prolog interpreter to
exchange data. So I need to offer to the user a Prolog API for
networking. I was wandering what was 1. the easiest way for me to do
it (of course people on this group can't really know it since it
depends on the internals of the interpreter, but may have interesting
ideas) and 2. the common way to do it, by looking at other Prolog
implementations. Of course I'd use the Java networking libraries,
since the interpreter is written in Java. But there are many ways to
offer that functionality to the Prolog user, some involve also
offering a threading api, some not, etc.
