ANN: Dogelog Player 1.2.2 (Block I/O)

Admin User, created Sep 03. 2024

Dear All,

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

- Novacore get_atom/[2,3]:
  In the previous version, get_atom/[2,3] allowed reading text files, in particular entire files or just lines could be read.  After introducing type(binary) we have now also adjusted the signature of the predicate.  It now accepts an options list.

- library(charsio):
  get_atom/[2,3] is still implemented 100% Prolog, but now also allows reading binary blocks using the compress/1 and max/1 options.  Accordingly, we renamed enum_lines/2 to enum_atoms/2 and introduced enum_atoms/3, the latter accepting the same options list.

- library(files):
  So far, copy_binary/2 was implemented natively synchronously, for the platforms JavaScript, Python and Java. The disadvantage was that execution could block. The new asynchronous implementation is based on enum_atoms/3 and allows other tasks to be executed while waiting for I/O. 

For more details: Dogelog

Have Fun!
