1. About
--------

JIProlog - Java Internet Prolog is a cross-platform pure Java 100% Prolog interpreter that integrates Prolog and Java in a very easy way. 
JIProlog is compliant with the major Prolog interpreters. It supports most of ISO Prolog specifications and the most common and used 
built-in predicates.
JIProlog allows calling Prolog predicates from Java without dealing with native code (JNI) and allows invoking Java methods from Prolog 
as they were predicates.
JIProlog comes with a complete API to link Prolog and Java languages from both sides. The API can is composed of three parts: the first 
one regards the way to invoke Prolog from Java; the second one deals with the techniques to call Java methods from Prolog by implementing 
custom Prolog built-in predicates in the form of Java classes or by calling Java methods through Java Reflection API; the third one treats 
the way to link Prolog predicates with tables in an external databases via JDBC.

-----------------

Contributions, constructive criticism, patches, bug reports, and suggestions

as the compiler, runtime, adapter files, library files, or tools can only be
accepted with a transfer of copyright or if the submitted code is explicitly
declared as public domain code. This simplifies the selling of commercial
licenses, which provide a revenue source for the sustained development of
JIProlog.
