Before describing in full detail how to interface to C code, we will examine
a brief example.
Assume the user requires a predicate `my_process_id(Id)` which succeeds
when _Id_ unifies with the number of the process under which YAP is running.
In this case we will create a `my_process.c` file containing the
C-code described below.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.c}
#include "YAP/YapInterface.h"
static int my_process_id(void)
{
YAP_Term pid = YAP_MkIntTerm(getpid());
YAP_Term out = YAP_ARG1;
return(YAP_Unify(out,pid));
}
void init_my_predicates()
{
YAP_UserCPredicate("my_process_id",my_process_id,1);
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The commands to compile the above file depend on the operating
system.

* Using the compiler:
Under Linux you should use:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gcc -c -shared -fPIC my_process.c
ld -shared -o my_process.so my_process.o
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Under WIN32 in a MINGW/CYGWIN environment, using the standard
installation path you should use:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gcc -mno-cygwin -I "c:/Yap/include" -c my_process.c
gcc -mno-cygwin "c:/Yap/bin/yap.dll" --shared -o my_process.dll my_process.o
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Under WIN32 in a pure CYGWIN environment, using the standard
installation path, you should use:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gcc -I/usr/local -c my_process.c
gcc -shared -o my_process.dll my_process.o /usr/local/bin/yap.dll
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And could be loaded, under YAP, by executing the following Prolog goal
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
load_foreign_files(['my_process'],[],init_my_predicates).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note that since YAP4.3.3 you should not give the suffix for object
files. YAP will deduce the correct suffix from the operating system it
is running under.
After loading that file the following Prolog goal
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
my_process_id(N)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
would unify N with the number of the process under which YAP is running.
Having presented a full example, we will now examine in more detail the
contents of the C source code file presented above.
The include statement is used to make available to the C source code the
macros for the handling of Prolog terms and also some YAP public
definitions.
The function `my_process_id` is the implementation, in C, of the
desired predicate. Note that it returns an integer denoting the success
of failure of the goal and also that it has no arguments even though the
predicate being defined has one.
In fact the arguments of a Prolog predicate written in C are accessed
through macros, defined in the include file, with names _YAP_ARG1_,
_YAP_ARG2_, ..., _YAP_ARG16_ or with _YAP_A_( _N_)
where _N_ is the argument number (starting with 1). In the present
case the function uses just one local variable of type `YAP_Term`, the
type used for holding YAP terms, where the integer returned by the
standard unix function `getpid()` is stored as an integer term (the
conversion is done by `YAP_MkIntTerm(Int))`. Then it calls the
pre-defined routine `YAP_Unify(YAP_Term, YAP_Term)` which in turn returns an
integer denoting success or failure of the unification.
The role of the procedure `init_my_predicates` is to make known to
YAP, by calling YAP_UserCPredicate(), the predicates being
defined in the file. This is in fact why, in the example above,
init_my_predicates() was passed as the third argument to
load_foreign_files/3.
The rest of this appendix describes exhaustively how to interface C to YAP.
@section Manipulating_Terms Terms
This section provides information about the primitives available to the C
programmer for manipulating Prolog terms.
Several C typedefs are included in the header file `yap/YAPInterface.h` to
describe, in a portable way, the C representation of Prolog terms.
The user should write is programs using this macros to ensure portability of
code across different versions of YAP.
The more important typedef is _YAP_Term_ which is used to denote the
type of a Prolog term.
Terms, from a point of view of the C-programmer, can be classified as
follows
+ uninstantiated variables
+ instantiated variables
+ integers
+ floating-point numbers
+ database references
+ atoms
+ pairs (lists)
+ compound terms
The primitive
YAP_Bool YAP_IsVarTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
returns true iff its argument is an uninstantiated variable. Conversely the
primitive
<ul>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_NonVarTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
returns true iff its argument is not a variable.
</li>
</ul>
The user can create a new uninstantiated variable using the primitive
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkVarTerm()
</li>
</ul>
The following primitives can be used to discriminate among the different types
of non-variable terms:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsIntTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsFloatTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsDbRefTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsAtomTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsPairTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsApplTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsCompoundTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
</ul>
The next primitive gives the type of a Prolog term:
<ul>
<li>YAP_tag_t YAP_TagOfTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
</ul>
The set of possible values is an enumerated type, with the following values:
<ul>
<li>`YAP_TAG_ATT`: an attributed variable
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_UNBOUND`: an unbound variable
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_REF`: a reference to a term
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_PAIR`: a list
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_ATOM`: an atom
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_INT`: a small integer
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_LONG_INT`: a word sized integer
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_BIG_INT`: a very large integer
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_RATIONAL`: a rational number
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_FLOAT`: a floating point number
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_OPAQUE`: an opaque term
</li>
<li>`YAP_TAG_APPL`: a compound term
</li>
</ul>
Next, we mention the primitives that allow one to destruct and construct
terms. All the above primitives ensure that their result is
a dereferenced, i.e. that it is not a pointer to another term.
The following primitives are provided for creating an integer term from an
integer and to access the value of an integer term.
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkIntTerm(YAP_Int _i_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Int YAP_IntOfTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
</ul>
where `YAP_Int` is a typedef for the C integer type appropriate for
the machine or compiler in question (normally a long integer). The size
of the allowed integers is implementation dependent but is always
greater or equal to 24 bits: usually 32 bits on 32 bit machines, and 64
on 64 bit machines.
The two following primitives play a similar role for floating-point terms
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkFloatTerm(YAP_flt _double_)
</li>
<li>YAP_flt YAP_FloatOfTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
</ul>
where `flt` is a typedef for the appropriate C floating point type,
nowadays a `double`
The following primitives are provided for verifying whether a term is
a big int, creating a term from a big integer and to access the value
of a big int from a term.
<ul>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_IsBigNumTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkBigNumTerm(void \* _b_)
</li>
<li>void \*YAP_BigNumOfTerm(YAP_Term _t_, void \* _b_)
</li>
</ul>
YAP must support bignum for the configuration you are using (check the
YAP configuration and setup). For now, YAP only supports the GNU GMP
library, and `void \*` will be a cast for `mpz_t`. Notice
that [YAP_BigNumOfTerm](@ref YAP_BigNumOfTerm) requires the number to be already
initialised. As an example, we show how to print a bignum:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
static int
p_print_bignum(void)
{
mpz_t mz;
if (!YAP_IsBigNumTerm(YAP_ARG1))
return FALSE;
mpz_init(mz);
YAP_BigNumOfTerm(YAP_ARG1, mz);
gmp_printf("Shows up as %Zd\n", mz);
mpz_clear(mz);
return TRUE;
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Currently, no primitives are supplied to users for manipulating data base
references.
A special typedef `YAP_Atom` is provided to describe Prolog
\a atoms (symbolic constants). The two following primitives can be used
to manipulate atom terms
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkAtomTerm(YAP_Atom at)
</li>
<li>YAP_Atom YAP_AtomOfTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
</ul>
The following primitives are available for associating atoms with their
names
<ul>
<li>YAP_Atom YAP_LookupAtom(char \* _s_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Atom YAP_FullLookupAtom(char \* _s_)
</li>
<li>char \*YAP_AtomName(YAP_Atom _t_)
</li>
</ul>
The function [YAP_LookupAtom](@ref YAP_LookupAtom) looks up an atom in the standard hash
table. The function [YAP_FullLookupAtom](@ref YAP_FullLookupAtom) will also search if the
atom had been "hidden": this is useful for system maintenance from C
code. The functor [YAP_AtomName](@ref YAP_AtomName) returns a pointer to the string
for the atom.
The following primitives handle constructing atoms from strings with
wide characters, and vice-versa:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Atom YAP_LookupWideAtom(wchar_t \* _s_)
</li>
<li>wchar_t \*YAP_WideAtomName(YAP_Atom _t_)
</li>
</ul>
The following primitive tells whether an atom needs wide atoms in its
representation:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_IsWideAtom(YAP_Atom _t_)
</li>
</ul>
The following primitive can be used to obtain the size of an atom in a
representation-independent way:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_AtomNameLength(YAP_Atom _t_)
</li>
</ul>
The next routines give users some control over the atom
garbage collector. They allow the user to guarantee that an atom is not
to be garbage collected (this is important if the atom is hold
externally to the Prolog engine, allow it to be collected, and call a
hook on garbage collection:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_AtomGetHold(YAP_Atom _at_)
</li>
<li>int YAP_AtomReleaseHold(YAP_Atom _at_)
</li>
<li>int YAP_AGCRegisterHook(YAP_AGC_hook _f_)
</li>
</ul>
A \a pair is a Prolog term which consists of a tuple of two Prolog
terms designated as the \a head and the \a tail of the term. Pairs are
most often used to build <em>lists</em>. The following primitives can be
used to manipulate pairs:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkPairTerm(YAP_Term _Head_, YAP_Term _Tail_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkNewPairTerm(void)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_HeadOfTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_TailOfTerm(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkListFromTerms(YAP_Term \* _pt_, YAP_Int \* _sz_)
</li>
</ul>
One can construct a new pair from two terms, or one can just build a
pair whose head and tail are new unbound variables. Finally, one can
fetch the head or the tail.
The last function supports the common operation of constructing a list from an
array of terms of size _sz_ in a simple sweep.
Notice that the list constructors can call the garbage collector if
there is not enough space in the global stack.
A \a compound term consists of a \a functor and a sequence of terms with
length equal to the \a arity of the functor. A functor, described in C by
the typedef `Functor`, consists of an atom and of an integer.
The following primitives were designed to manipulate compound terms and
functors
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkApplTerm(YAP_Functor _f_, unsigned long int _n_, YAP_Term[] _args_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_MkNewApplTerm(YAP_Functor _f_, int _n_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_ArgOfTerm(int argno,YAP_Term _ts_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term \*YAP_ArgsOfTerm(YAP_Term _ts_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Functor YAP_FunctorOfTerm(YAP_Term _ts_)
</li>
</ul>
The [YAP_MkApplTerm() function constructs a new term, with functor
_f_ (of arity _n_), and using an array _args_ of _n_
terms with _n_ equal to the arity of the
functor. YAP_MkNewApplTerm() builds up a compound term whose
arguments are unbound variables. [YAP_ArgOfTerm](@ref YAP_ArgOfTerm) gives an argument
to a compound term. `argno` should be greater or equal to 1 and
less or equal to the arity of the functor. [YAP_ArgsOfTerm](@ref YAP_ArgsOfTerm)
returns a pointer to an array of arguments.
Notice that the compound term constructors can call the garbage
collector if there is not enough space in the global stack.
YAP allows one to manipulate the functors of compound term. The function
[YAP_FunctorOfTerm](@ref YAP_FunctorOfTerm) allows one to obtain a variable of type
`YAP_Functor` with the functor to a term. The following functions
then allow one to construct functors, and to obtain their name and arity.
<ul>
<li>YAP_Functor YAP_MkFunctor(YAP_Atom _a_,unsigned long int _arity_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Atom YAP_NameOfFunctor(YAP_Functor _f_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Int YAP_ArityOfFunctor(YAP_Functor _f_)
</li>
</ul>
Note that the functor is essentially a pair formed by an atom, and
arity.
Constructing terms in the stack may lead to overflow. The routine
<ul>
<li>int YAP_RequiresExtraStack(size_t _min_)
</li>
</ul>
verifies whether you have at least _min_ cells free in the stack,
and it returns true if it has to ensure enough memory by calling the
garbage collector and or stack shifter. The routine returns false if no
memory is needed, and a negative number if it cannot provide enough
memory.
You can set _min_ to zero if you do not know how much room you need
but you do know you do not need a big chunk at a single go. Usually, the routine
would usually be called together with a long-jump to restart the
code. Slots can also be used if there is small state.
@section Unifying_Terms Unification
YAP provides a single routine to attempt the unification of two Prolog
terms. The routine may succeed or fail:
<ul>
<li>Int YAP_Unify(YAP_Term _a_, YAP_Term _b_)
</li>
</ul>
The routine attempts to unify the terms _a_ and
_b_ returning `TRUE` if the unification succeeds and `FALSE`
otherwise.
@section Manipulating_Strings Strings
The YAP C-interface now includes an utility routine to copy a string
represented as a list of a character codes to a previously allocated buffer
<ul>
<li>int YAP_StringToBuffer(YAP_Term _String_, char \* _buf_, unsigned int _bufsize_)
</li>
</ul>
The routine copies the list of character codes _String_ to a
previously allocated buffer _buf_. The string including a
terminating null character must fit in _bufsize_ characters,
otherwise the routine will simply fail. The _StringToBuffer_ routine
fails and generates an exception if _String_ is not a valid string.
The C-interface also includes utility routines to do the reverse, that
is, to copy a from a buffer to a list of character codes, to a
difference list, or to a list of
character atoms. The routines work either on strings of characters or
strings of wide characters:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_BufferToString(char \* _buf_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_NBufferToString(char \* _buf_, size_t _len_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_WideBufferToString(wchar_t \* _buf_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_NWideBufferToString(wchar_t \* _buf_, size_t _len_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_BufferToAtomList(char \* _buf_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_NBufferToAtomList(char \* _buf_, size_t _len_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_WideBufferToAtomList(wchar_t \* _buf_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_NWideBufferToAtomList(wchar_t \* _buf_, size_t _len_)
</li>
</ul>
Users are advised to use the _N_ version of the routines. Otherwise,
the user-provided string must include a terminating null character.
The C-interface function calls the parser on a sequence of characters
stored at _buf_ and returns the resulting term.
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_ReadBuffer(char \* _buf_,YAP_Term \* _error_)
</li>
</ul>
The user-provided string must include a terminating null
character. Syntax errors will cause returning `FALSE` and binding
_error_ to a Prolog term.
These C-interface functions are useful when converting chunks of data to Prolog:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_FloatsToList(double \* _buf_,size_t _sz_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_IntsToList(YAP_Int \* _buf_,size_t _sz_)
</li>
</ul>
Notice that they are unsafe, and may call the garbage collector. They
return 0 on error.
These C-interface functions are useful when converting Prolog lists to arrays:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Int YAP_IntsToList(YAP_Term t, YAP_Int \* _buf_,size_t _sz_)
</li>
<li>YAP_Int YAP_FloatsToList(YAP_Term t, double \* _buf_,size_t _sz_)
</li>
</ul>
They return the number of integers scanned, up to a maximum of <tt>sz</tt>,
and <tt>-1</tt> on error.
@section Memory_Allocation Memory Allocation
The next routine can be used to ask space from the Prolog data-base:
<ul>
<li>void \*YAP_AllocSpaceFromYAP(int _size_)
</li>
</ul>
The routine returns a pointer to a buffer allocated from the code area,
or `NULL` if sufficient space was not available.
The space allocated with [YAP_AllocSpaceFromYAP](@ref YAP_AllocSpaceFromYAP) can be released
back to YAP by using:
<ul>
<li>void YAP_FreeSpaceFromYAP(void \* _buf_)
</li>
</ul>
The routine releases a buffer allocated from the code area. The system
may crash if `buf` is not a valid pointer to a buffer in the code
area.
@section Controlling_Streams Controlling YAP Streams from `C`
The C-Interface also provides the C-application with a measure of
control over the YAP Input/Output system. The first routine allows one
to find a file number given a current stream:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_StreamToFileNo(YAP_Term _stream_)
</li>
</ul>
This function gives the file descriptor for a currently available
stream. Note that null streams and in memory streams do not have
corresponding open streams, so the routine will return a
negative. Moreover, YAP will not be aware of any direct operations on
this stream, so information on, say, current stream position, may become
stale.
A second routine that is sometimes useful is:
<ul>
<li>void YAP_CloseAllOpenStreams(void)
</li>
</ul>
This routine closes the YAP Input/Output system except for the first
three streams, that are always associated with the three standard Unix
streams. It is most useful if you are doing `fork()`.
Last, one may sometimes need to flush all streams:
<ul>
<li>void YAP_CloseAllOpenStreams(void)
</li>
</ul>
It is also useful before you do a `fork()`, or otherwise you may
have trouble with unflushed output.
The next routine allows a currently open file to become a stream. The
routine receives as arguments a file descriptor, the true file name as a
string, an atom with the user name, and a set of flags:
<ul>
<li>void YAP_OpenStream(void \* _FD_, char \* _name_, YAP_Term _t_, int _flags_)
</li>
</ul>
The available flags are `YAP_INPUT_STREAM`,
`YAP_OUTPUT_STREAM`, `YAP_APPEND_STREAM`,
`YAP_PIPE_STREAM`, `YAP_TTY_STREAM`, `YAP_POPEN_STREAM`,
`YAP_BINARY_STREAM`, and `YAP_SEEKABLE_STREAM`. By default, the
stream is supposed to be at position 0. The argument _name_ gives
the name by which YAP should know the new stream.
@section Utility_Functions Utility Functions in `C`
The C-Interface provides the C-application with a a number of utility
functions that are useful.
The first provides a way to insert a term into the data-base
<ul>
<li>void \*YAP_Record(YAP_Term _t_)
</li>
</ul>
This function returns a pointer to a copy of the term in the database
(or to <tt>NULL</tt> if the operation fails.
The next functions provides a way to recover the term from the data-base:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_Recorded(void \* _handle_)
</li>
</ul>
Notice that the semantics are the same as for recorded/3: this
function creates a new copy of the term in the stack, with fresh
variables. The function returns <tt>0L</tt> if it cannot create a new term.
Last, the next function allows one to recover space:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_Erase(void \* _handle_)
</li>
</ul>
Notice that any accesses using _handle_ after this operation may
lead to a crash.
The following functions are often required to compare terms.
Succeed if two terms are actually the same term, as in
==/2:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_ExactlyEqual(YAP_Term t1, YAP_Term t2)
</li>
</ul>
The next function succeeds if two terms are variant terms, and returns
0 otherwise, as
=@=/2:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_Variant(YAP_Term t1, YAP_Term t2)
</li>
</ul>
The next functions deal with numbering variables in terms:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_NumberVars(YAP_Term t, YAP_Int first_number)
</li>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_UnNumberVars(YAP_Term t)
</li>
<li>int YAP_IsNumberedVariable(YAP_Term t)
</li>
</ul>
The next one returns the length of a well-formed list _t_, or
`-1` otherwise:
<ul>
<li>Int YAP_ListLength(YAP_Term t)
</li>
</ul>
Last, this function succeeds if two terms are unifiable:
=@=/2:
<ul>
<li>int YAP_Unifiable(YAP_Term t1, YAP_Term t2)
</li>
</ul>
The second function computes a hash function for a term, as in
`term_hash/4`.
<ul>
<li>YAP_Int YAP_TermHash(YAP_Term t, YAP_Int range, YAP_Int depth, int ignore_variables));
</li>
</ul>
The first three arguments follow `term_has/4`. The last argument
indicates what to do if we find a variable: if `0` fail, otherwise
ignore the variable.
@section Calling_YAP_From_C From `C` back to Prolog
There are several ways to call Prolog code from C-code. By default, the
`YAP_RunGoal()` should be used for this task. It assumes the engine
has been initialised before:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Int YAP_RunGoal(YAP_Term Goal)
</li>
</ul>
Execute query _Goal_ and return 1 if the query succeeds, and 0
otherwise. The predicate returns 0 if failure, otherwise it will return
an _YAP_Term_.
Quite often, one wants to run a query once. In this case you should use
_Goal_:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Int YAP_RunGoalOnce(YAP_Term Goal)
</li>
</ul>
The `YAP_RunGoal()` function makes sure to recover stack space at
the end of execution.
Prolog terms are pointers: a problem users often find is that the term
_Goal_ may actually <em>be moved around</em> during the execution of
`YAP_RunGoal()`, due to garbage collection or stack shifting. If
this is possible, _Goal_ will become invalid after executing
`YAP_RunGoal()`. In this case, it is a good idea to save _Goal_
<em>slots</em>, as shown next:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
long sl = YAP_InitSlot(scoreTerm);
out = YAP_RunGoal(t);
t = YAP_GetFromSlot(sl);
YAP_RecoverSlots(1);
if (out == 0) return FALSE;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
@copydoc real
The following functions complement _YAP_RunGoal_:
<ul>
<li>`int` YAP_RestartGoal(`void`)
Look for the next solution to the current query by forcing YAP to
backtrack to the latest goal. Notice that slots allocated since the last
YAP_RunGoal() will become invalid.
<li> `int` YAP_Reset(`yap_reset_t mode`)
Reset execution environment
(similar to the abort/0 built-in). This is useful when
you want to start a new query before asking all solutions to the
previous query. 'mode` specifies how deep the Reset will go and what
to do next. It will be most often set to `YAP_FULL_RESET`.
</li>
<li>`int` YAP_ShutdownGoal(`int backtrack`)
Clean up the current goal. If
`backtrack` is true, stack space will be recovered and bindings
will be undone. In both cases, any slots allocated since the goal was
created will become invalid.
</li>
<li>`YAP_Bool` YAP_GoalHasException(`YAP_Term \*tp`)
Check if the last goal generated an exception, and if so copy it to the
space pointed to by _tp_
</li>
<li>`void` YAP_ClearExceptions(`void`)
Reset any exceptions left over by the system.
</li>
</ul>
The YAP_RunGoal() interface is designed to be very robust, but may
not be the most efficient when repeated calls to the same goal are made
and when there is no interest in processing exception. The
YAP_EnterGoal() interface should have lower-overhead:
<ul>
<li>`YAP_PredEntryPtr` YAP_FunctorToPred(`YAP_Functor` _f_)
Return the predicate whose main functor is _f_.
</li>
<li>`YAP_PredEntryPtr` YAP_AtomToPred(`YAP_Atom` _at_)
Return the arity 0 predicate whose name is _at_.
</li>
<li>`YAP_PredEntryPtr`
YAP_FunctorToPredInModule(`YAP_Functor` _f_, `YAP_Module` _m_),
Return the predicate in module _m_ whose main functor is _f_.
</li>
<li>`YAP_PredEntryPtr` YAP_AtomToPred(`YAP_Atom` _at_, `YAP_Module` _m_),
Return the arity 0 predicate in module _m_ whose name is _at_.
</li>
<li>`YAP_Bool` YAP_EnterGoal(`YAP_PredEntryPtr` _pe_),
`YAP_Term \*` _array_, `YAP_dogoalinfo \*` _infop_)
Execute a query for predicate _pe_. The query is given as an
array of terms _Array_. _infop_ is the address of a goal
handle that can be used to backtrack and to recover space. Succeeds if
a solution was found.
Notice that you cannot create new slots if an YAP_ExnterGoal goal is open.
</li>
<li>`YAP_Bool` YAP_RetryGoal(`YAP_dogoalinfo \*` _infop_) @anchor YAP_RetryGoal
Backtrack to a query created by [YAP_EnterGoal](@ref YAP_EnterGoal). The query is
given by the handle _infop_. Returns whether a new solution could
be be found.
</li>
<li>`YAP_Bool` YAP_LeaveGoal(`YAP_Bool` _backtrack_, @anchor YAP_LeaveGoal
`YAP_dogoalinfo \*` _infop_)
Exit a query query created by [YAP_EnterGoal](@ref YAP_EnterGoal). If
`backtrack` is `TRUE`, variable bindings are undone and Heap
space is recovered. Otherwise, only stack space is recovered, ie,
`LeaveGoal` executes a cut.
</li>
</ul>
Next, follows an example of how to use [YAP_EnterGoal](@ref YAP_EnterGoal):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
void
runall(YAP_Term g)
{
YAP_dogoalinfo goalInfo;
YAP_Term *goalArgs = YAP_ArraysOfTerm(g);
YAP_Functor *goalFunctor = YAP_FunctorOfTerm(g);
YAP_PredEntryPtr goalPred = YAP_FunctorToPred(goalFunctor);
result = YAP_EnterGoal( goalPred, goalArgs, &goalInfo );
while (result)
result = YAP_RetryGoal( &goalInfo );
YAP_LeaveGoal(TRUE, &goalInfo);
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
YAP allows calling a *new* Prolog interpreter from `C`. One
way is to first construct a goal `G`, and then it is sufficient to
perform:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Bool YAP_CallProlog(YAP_Term _G_)
</li>
</ul>
the result will be `FALSE`, if the goal failed, or `TRUE`, if
the goal succeeded. In this case, the variables in _G_ will store
the values they have been unified with. Execution only proceeds until
finding the first solution to the goal, but you can call
[findall/3](@ref findall) or friends if you need all the solutions.
Notice that during execution, garbage collection or stack shifting may
have moved the terms
@section Module_Manipulation_in_C Module Manipulation in C
YAP allows one to create a new module from C-code. To create the new
code it is sufficient to call:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Module YAP_CreateModule(YAP_Atom _ModuleName_)
</li>
</ul>
Notice that the new module does not have any predicates associated and
that it is not the current module. To find the current module, you can call:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Module YAP_CurrentModule()
</li>
</ul>
Given a module, you may want to obtain the corresponding name. This is
possible by using:
<ul>
<li>YAP_Term YAP_ModuleName(YAP_Module mod)
</li>
</ul>
Notice that this function returns a term, and not an atom. You can
[YAP_AtomOfTerm](@ref YAP_AtomOfTerm) to extract the corresponding Prolog atom.
@section Miscellaneous_ChYFunctions Miscellaneous C Functions
<ul>
<li>`void` YAP_Throw(`YAP_Term exception`)
</li>
<li>`void` YAP_AsyncThrow(`YAP_Term exception`) @anchor YAP_Throw
Throw an exception with term _exception_, just like if you called
`throw/2`. The function <tt>YAP_AsyncThrow</tt> is supposed to be used
from interrupt handlers.
</li>
<li>`int` YAP_SetYAPFlag(`yap_flag_t flag, int value`) @anchor YAP_SetYAPFlag
This function allows setting some YAP flags from `C` .Currently,
only two boolean flags are accepted: `YAPC_ENABLE_GC` and
`YAPC_ENABLE_AGC`. The first enables/disables the standard garbage
collector, the second does the same for the atom garbage collector.`
</li>
<li>`YAP_TERM` YAP_AllocExternalDataInStack(`size_t bytes`)
</li>
<li>`void \*` YAP_ExternalDataInStackFromTerm(`YAP_Term t`)
</li>
<li>`YAP_Bool` YAP_IsExternalDataInStackTerm(`YAP_Term t`) @anchor YAP_AllocExternalDataInStack
The next routines allow one to store external data in the Prolog
execution stack. The first routine reserves space for _sz_ bytes
and returns an opaque handle. The second routines receives the handle
and returns a pointer to the data. The last routine checks if a term
is an opaque handle.
Data will be automatically reclaimed during
backtracking. Also, this storage is opaque to the Prolog garbage compiler,
so it should not be used to store Prolog terms. On the other hand, it
may be useful to store arrays in a compact way, or pointers to external objects.
</li>
<li>`int` YAP_HaltRegisterHook(`YAP_halt_hook f, void \*closure`) @anchor YAP_HaltRegisterHook
Register the function _f_ to be called if YAP is halted. The
function is called with two arguments: the exit code of the process
(`0` if this cannot be determined on your operating system) and
the closure argument _closure_.
</li>
<li>`int` YAP_Argv(`char \*\*\*argvp`) @anchor YAP_Argv
Return the number of arguments to YAP and instantiate argvp to point to the list of such arguments.
</li>
</ul>
@section Writing_C Writing predicates in C
We will distinguish two kinds of predicates:
<ul>
<li>\a deterministic predicates which either fail or succeed but are not
backtrackable, like the one in the introduction;
</li>
<li>\a backtrackable
predicates which can succeed more than once.
</li>
</ul>
The first kind of predicates should be implemented as a C function with
no arguments which should return zero if the predicate fails and a
non-zero value otherwise. The predicate should be declared to
YAP, in the initialization routine, with a call to
<ul>
<li>void YAP_UserCPredicate(char \* _name_, YAP_Bool \* _fn_(), unsigned long int _arity_);
where _name_ is a string with the name of the predicate, _init_,
_cont_, _cut_ are the C functions used to start, continue and
when pruning the execution of the predicate, _arity_ is the
predicate arity, and _sizeof_ is the size of the data to be
preserved in the stack.
For the second kind of predicates we need three C functions. The first one
is called when the predicate is first activated; the second one
is called on backtracking to provide (possibly) other solutions; the
last one is called on pruning. Note
also that we normally also need to preserve some information to find out
the next solution.
In fact the role of the two functions can be better understood from the
following Prolog definition
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
p :- start.
p :- repeat,
continue.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
where `start` and `continue` correspond to the two C functions
described above.
The interface works as follows:
<ul>
<li>void YAP_UserBackCutCPredicate(char \* _name_, int \* _init_(), int \* _cont_(), int \* _cut_(), unsigned long int _arity_, unsigned int _sizeof_) @anchor YAP_UserBackCutCPredicate
describes a new predicate where _name_ is the name of the predicate,
_init_, _cont_, and _cut_ are the C functions that implement
the predicate and _arity_ is the predicate's arity.
</li>
<li>void YAP_UserBackCPredicate(char \* _name_, int \* _init_(), int \* _cont_(), unsigned long int _arity_, unsigned int _sizeof_) @anchor YAP_UserBackCPredicate
describes a new predicate where _name_ is the name of the predicate,
_init_, and _cont_ are the C functions that implement the
predicate and _arity_ is the predicate's arity.
</li>
<li>void YAP_PRESERVE_DATA( _ptr_, _type_); @anchor YAP_PRESERVE_DATA
</li>
<li>void YAP_PRESERVED_DATA( _ptr_, _type_); @anchor YAP_PRESERVED_DATA
</li>
<li>void YAP_PRESERVED_DATA_CUT( _ptr_, _type_); @anchor YAP_PRESERVED_DATA_CUT
</li>
<li>void YAP_cut_succeed( void ); @anchor YAP_cut_succeed
</li>
<li>void YAP_cut_fail( void ); @anchor YAP_cut_fail
</li>
</ul>
As an example we will consider implementing in C a predicate `n100(N)`
which, when called with an instantiated argument should succeed if that
argument is a numeral less or equal to 100, and, when called with an
uninstantiated argument, should provide, by backtracking, all the positive
integers less or equal to 100.
To do that we first declare a structure, which can only consist
of Prolog terms, containing the information to be preserved on backtracking
and a pointer variable to a structure of that type.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#include "YAPInterface.h"
static int start_n100(void);
static int continue_n100(void);
typedef struct {
YAP_Term next_solution;
} n100_data_type;
n100_data_type *n100_data;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We now write the `C` function to handle the first call:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
static int start_n100(void)
{
YAP_Term t = YAP_ARG1;
YAP_PRESERVE_DATA(n100_data,n100_data_type);
if(YAP_IsVarTerm(t)) {
n100_data->next_solution = YAP_MkIntTerm(0);
return continue_n100();
}
if(!YAP_IsIntTerm(t) || YAP_IntOfTerm(t)<0 || YAP_IntOfTerm(t)>100) {
YAP_cut_fail();
} else {
YAP_cut_succeed();
}
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The routine starts by getting the dereference value of the argument.
The call to [YAP_PRESERVE_DATA](@ref YAP_PRESERVE_DATA) is used to initialize the memory
which will hold the information to be preserved across
backtracking. The first argument is the variable we shall use, and the
second its type. Note that we can only use [YAP_PRESERVE_DATA](@ref YAP_PRESERVE_DATA)
once, so often we will want the variable to be a structure. This data
is visible to the garbage collector, so it should consist of Prolog
terms, as in the example. It is also correct to store pointers to
objects external to YAP stacks, as the garbage collector will ignore
such references.
If the argument of the predicate is a variable, the routine initializes the
structure to be preserved across backtracking with the information
required to provide the next solution, and exits by calling
`continue_n100` to provide that solution.
If the argument was not a variable, the routine then checks if it was an
integer, and if so, if its value is positive and less than 100. In that
case it exits, denoting success, with [YAP_cut_succeed](@ref YAP_cut_succeed), or
otherwise exits with [YAP_cut_fail](@ref YAP_cut_fail) denoting failure.
The reason for using for using the functions [YAP_cut_succeed](@ref YAP_cut_succeed) and
[YAP_cut_fail](@ref YAP_cut_fail) instead of just returning a non-zero value in the
first case, and zero in the second case, is that otherwise, if
backtracking occurred later, the routine `continue_n100` would be
called to provide additional solutions.
The code required for the second function is
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
static int continue_n100(void)
{
int n;
YAP_Term t;
YAP_Term sol = YAP_ARG1;
YAP_PRESERVED_DATA(n100_data,n100_data_type);
n = YAP_IntOfTerm(n100_data->next_solution);
if( n == 100) {
t = YAP_MkIntTerm(n);
YAP_Unify(sol,t);
YAP_cut_succeed();
}
else {
YAP_Unify(sol,n100_data->next_solution);
n100_data->next_solution = YAP_MkIntTerm(n+1);
return(TRUE);
}
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note that again the macro [YAP_PRESERVED_DATA](@ref YAP_PRESERVED_DATA) is used at the
beginning of the function to access the data preserved from the previous
solution. Then it checks if the last solution was found and in that
case exits with [YAP_cut_succeed](@ref YAP_cut_succeed) in order to cut any further
backtracking. If this is not the last solution then we save the value
for the next solution in the data structure and exit normally with 1
denoting success. Note also that in any of the two cases we use the
function `YAP_unify` to bind the argument of the call to the value
saved in ` n100_state-\>next_solution`.
Note also that the only correct way to signal failure in a backtrackable
predicate is to use the [YAP_cut_fail](@ref YAP_cut_fail) macro.
Backtrackable predicates should be declared to YAP, in a way
similar to what happened with deterministic ones, but using instead a
call to
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this example, we would have something like
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
void
init_n100(void)
{
YAP_UserBackCutCPredicate("n100", start_n100, continue_n100, cut_n100, 1, 1);
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The argument before last is the predicate's arity. Notice again the
last argument to the call. function argument gives the extra space we
want to use for `PRESERVED_DATA`. Space is given in cells, where
a cell is the same size as a pointer. The garbage collector has access
to this space, hence users should use it either to store terms or to
store pointers to objects outside the stacks.
The code for `cut_n100` could be:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
static int cut_n100(void)
{
YAP_PRESERVED_DATA_CUT(n100_data,n100_data_type*);
fprintf("n100 cut with counter %ld\n", YAP_IntOfTerm(n100_data->next_solution));
return TRUE;
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Notice that we have to use [YAP_PRESERVED_DATA_CUT](@ref YAP_PRESERVED_DATA_CUT): this is
because the Prolog engine is at a different state during cut.
If no work is required at cut, we can use:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
void
init_n100(void)
{
YAP_UserBackCutCPredicate("n100", start_n100, continue_n100, NULL, 1, 1);
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
in this case no code is executed at cut time.
@section YAP4_Notes Changes to the C-Interface in YAP4
YAP4 includes several changes over the previous `load_foreign_files/3`
interface. These changes were required to support the new binary code
formats, such as ELF used in Solaris2 and Linux.
+ All Names of YAP objects now start with _YAP__. This is
designed to avoid clashes with other code. Use `YAPInterface.h` to
take advantage of the new interface. `c_interface.h` is still
available if you cannot port the code to the new interface.
+ Access to elements in the new interface always goes through
<em>functions</em>. This includes access to the argument registers,
`YAP_ARG1` to `YAP_ARG16`. This change breaks code such as
`unify(\&ARG1,\&t)`, which is nowadays:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
{
YAP_Unify(ARG1, t);
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ `cut_fail()` and `cut_succeed()` are now functions.
+ The use of `Deref` is deprecated. All functions that return
Prolog terms, including the ones that access arguments, already
dereference their arguments.
+ Space allocated with PRESERVE_DATA is ignored by garbage
collection and stack shifting. As a result, any pointers to a Prolog
stack object, including some terms, may be corrupted after garbage
collection or stack shifting. Prolog terms should instead be stored as
arguments to the backtrackable procedure.
@defgroup YAPAsLibrary Using YAP as a Library
@ingroup c-interface
YAP can be used as a library to be called from other
programs. To do so, you must first create the YAP library:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
make library
make install_library
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This will install a file `libyap.a` in _LIBDIR_ and the Prolog
headers in _INCLUDEDIR_. The library contains all the functionality
available in YAP, except the foreign function loader and for
`YAP`'s startup routines.
To actually use this library you must follow a five step process:
<ol>
You must initialize the YAP environment. A single function,
`YAP_FastInit` asks for a contiguous chunk in your memory space, fills
it in with the data-base, and sets up YAP's stacks and
execution registers. You can use a saved space from a standard system by
calling save_program/1.
+ You then have to prepare a query to give to
YAP. A query is a Prolog term, and you just have to use the same
functions that are available in the C-interface.
+ You can then use `YAP_RunGoal(query)` to actually evaluate your
query. The argument is the query term `query`, and the result is 1
if the query succeeded, and 0 if it failed.
+ You can use the term destructor functions to check how
arguments were instantiated.
+ If you want extra solutions, you can use
`YAP_RestartGoal()` to obtain the next solution.
</ol>
The next program shows how to use this system. We assume the saved
program contains two facts for the procedure <tt>b</tt>:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#include <stdio.h>
#include "YAP/YAPInterface.h"
int
main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
if (YAP_FastInit("saved_state") == YAP_BOOT_ERROR)
exit(1);
if (YAP_RunGoal(YAP_MkAtomTerm(YAP_LookupAtom("do")))) {
printf("Success\n");
while (YAP_RestartGoal())
printf("Success\n");
}
printf("NO\n");
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The program first initializes YAP, calls the query for the
first time and succeeds, and then backtracks twice. The first time
backtracking succeeds, the second it fails and exits.
To compile this program it should be sufficient to do:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cc -o exem -I../YAP4.3.0 test.c -lYAP -lreadline -lm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You may need to adjust the libraries and library paths depending on the
Operating System and your installation of YAP.
Note that YAP4.3.0 provides the first version of the interface. The
interface may change and improve in the future.
The following C-functions are available from YAP:
+ YAP_CompileClause(`YAP_Term` _Clause_)
Compile the Prolog term _Clause_ and assert it as the last clause
for the corresponding procedure.
+ YAP_MkExo(`YAP_PredEntryPtr` _pred_, `size_t` _sz_, `void *` _uid_)
Predicate _pred_ is an exo-predicate that needs _sz_ bytes of
contiguous storage. If _uid_ is non-null associate user-defined
code with _pred_.
+ YAP_AssertTuples(`YAP_PredEntryPtr` pred, `const YAP_Term *` _Facts_, `size_t` nb)
Add the array of _nb_ Prolog term `Facts` to the table
`Predicate`.
+ `int` YAP_ContinueGoal(`void`)
Continue execution from the point where it stopped.
+ `void` YAP_Error(`int` _ID_,`YAP_Term` _Cause_,`char \*` _error_description_)
Generate an YAP System Error with description given by the string
_error_description_. _ID_ is the error ID, if known, or
`0`. _Cause_ is the term that caused the crash.
+ `void` YAP_Exit(`int` _exit_code_)
Exit YAP immediately. The argument _exit_code_ gives the error code
and is supposed to be 0 after successful execution in Unix and Unix-like
systems.
+ `YAP_Term` YAP_GetValue(`Atom` _at_)
Return the term _value_ associated with the atom _at_. If no
such term exists the function will return the empty list.
+ YAP_FastInit(`char \*` _SavedState_)
Initialize a copy of YAP from _SavedState_. The copy is
monolithic and currently must be loaded at the same address where it was
saved. `YAP_FastInit` is a simpler version of `YAP_Init`.
+ YAP_Init( _InitInfo_)
Initialize YAP. The arguments are in a `C`
structure of type `YAP_init_args`.
The fields of _InitInfo_ are `char \*` _SavedState_,
`int` _HeapSize_, `int` _StackSize_, `int`
_TrailSize_, `int` _NumberofWorkers_, `int`
_SchedulerLoop_, `int` _DelayedReleaseLoad_, `int`
_argc_, `char \*\*` _argv_, `int` _ErrorNo_, and
`char \*` _ErrorCause_. The function returns an integer, which
indicates the current status. If the result is `YAP_BOOT_ERROR`
booting failed.
If _SavedState_ is not NULL, try to open and restore the file
_SavedState_. Initially YAP will search in the current directory. If
the saved state does not exist in the current directory YAP will use
either the default library directory or the directory given by the
environment variable YAPLIBDIR. Note that currently
the saved state must be loaded at the same address where it was saved.
If _HeapSize_ is different from 0 use _HeapSize_ as the minimum
size of the Heap (or code space). If _StackSize_ is different from 0
use _HeapSize_ as the minimum size for the Stacks. If
_TrailSize_ is different from 0 use _TrailSize_ as the minimum
size for the Trails.
The _NumberofWorkers_, _NumberofWorkers_, and
_DelayedReleaseLoad_ are only of interest to the or-parallel system.
The argument count _argc_ and string of arguments _argv_
arguments are to be passed to user programs as the arguments used to
call YAP.
If booting failed you may consult `ErrorNo` and `ErrorCause`
for the cause of the error, or call
`YAP_Error(ErrorNo,0L,ErrorCause)` to do default processing.
+ `void` YAP_PutValue(`Atom` _at_, `YAP_Term` _value_)
Associate the term _value_ with the atom _at_. The term
_value_ must be a constant. This functionality is used by YAP as a
simple way for controlling and communicating with the Prolog run-time.
+ `YAP_Term` YAP_Read(`IOSTREAM \*Stream`)
Parse a _Term_ from the stream _Stream_.
+ `YAP_Term` YAP_Write(`YAP_Term` _t_)
Copy a Term _t_ and all associated constraints. May call the garbage
collector and returns `0L` on error (such as no space being
available).
+ `void` YAP_Write(`YAP_Term` _t_, `IOSTREAM` _stream_, `int` _flags_)
Write a Term _t_ using the stream _stream_ to output
characters. The term is written according to a mask of the following
flags in the `flag` argument: `YAP_WRITE_QUOTED`,
`YAP_WRITE_HANDLE_VARS`, `YAP_WRITE_USE_PORTRAY`, and `YAP_WRITE_IGNORE_OPS`.
+ `int` YAP_WriteBuffer(`YAP_Term` _t_, `char \*` _buff_, `size_t` _size_, `int` _flags_)
Write a YAP_Term _t_ to buffer _buff_ with size
_size_. The term is written
according to a mask of the following flags in the `flag`
argument: `YAP_WRITE_QUOTED`, `YAP_WRITE_HANDLE_VARS`,
`YAP_WRITE_USE_PORTRAY`, and `YAP_WRITE_IGNORE_OPS`. The
function will fail if it does not have enough space in the buffer.
+ `char \*` YAP_WriteDynamicBuffer(`YAP_Term` _t_, `char \*` _buff_, `size_t` _size_, `size_t` _\*lengthp_, `size_t` _\*encodingp_, `int` _flags_)
Write a YAP_Term _t_ to buffer _buff_ with size
_size_. The code will allocate an extra buffer if _buff_ is
`NULL` or if `buffer` does not have enough room. The
variable `lengthp` is assigned the size of the resulting buffer,
and `encodingp` will receive the type of encoding (currently only `PL_ENC_ISO_LATIN_1` and `PL_ENC_WCHAR` are supported)
+ `void` YAP_InitConsult(`int` _mode_, `char \*` _filename_)
Enter consult mode on file _filename_. This mode maintains a few
data-structures internally, for instance to know whether a predicate
before or not. It is still possible to execute goals in consult mode.
If _mode_ is `TRUE` the file will be reconsulted, otherwise
just consulted. In practice, this function is most useful for
bootstrapping Prolog, as otherwise one may call the Prolog predicate
compile/1 or consult/1 to do compilation.
Note that it is up to the user to open the file _filename_. The
`YAP_InitConsult` function only uses the file name for internal
bookkeeping.
+ `void` YAP_EndConsult(`void`)
Finish consult mode.
Some observations:
+ The system will core dump if you try to load the saved state in a
different address from where it was made. This may be a problem if
your program uses `mmap`. This problem will be addressed in future
versions of YAP.
+ Currently, the YAP library will pollute the name
space for your program.
+ The initial library includes the complete YAP system. In
the future we plan to split this library into several smaller libraries
(e.g. if you do not want to perform Input/Output).
+ You can generate your own saved states. Look at the
`boot.yap` and `init.yap` files.
