Comment on Who killed Prolog?parent

The nicest embeddable Prologs I've found are, for whatever reason, in Java. I use Tuprolog (http://alice.unibo.it/xwiki/bin/view/Tuprolog/) a bit, which embeds a Prolog interpreter pretty cleanly. There's also a compiler, PrologCafe (http://kaminari.scitec.kobe-u.ac.jp/PrologCafe/), though I find it a little harder to use seamlessly.

I agree that something as easy to embed from C or languages with C-embedding hooks would be nice.

It's odd that there isn't a C one, really. I've done very little with Java and the JVM, but hopefully those will prove helpful to someone else.

I don't have a time frame for a C-embedded Prolog (I've already got several other projects I'm trying to finish), but it's high on my list.
