ANN: Dogelog Player 1.2.0 (Binary Streams)


Admin User, created May 22. 2024

Dear All,

We are happy to announce a new edition of the Dogelog player:

- Quasi-Parallel Loader:
  The Prolog text loader is now task aware. Although tasks
are only quasi-parallel, issues of mutex might appear, which have been solved by using the meta call shield/1 which temporarly disables auto-yield. Back traces showing the current file loading chain are now task local.

- Binary Files:
  As before the target platforms JavaScript nodeJS, Python and Java support file system access. A new open option type/1 has been added, which can have the values 'text' or 'binary' and which defaults to 'text'. 'binary' is simply treated as 'text' with latin1 encoding instead of utf8.  

- Binary HTTP:
  To give the benefit of a simple binary treatment to the HTTP protocol as well, i.e. no extra get_byte/[1,2] builtins and no extra byte array datatype, since codes and atoms can be used as before, we braught the type/1 option to the APIs of the HTTP clients and the HTTP servers.

For more details: Dogelog

Have Fun!
