[Prolog] Nice Free IDE

[agmorgan]

Anyone do any Prolog?
Im looking for an IDE to get started.

I much prefer IDEs to text editors that do a bit of syntax highlighting.

Someone said that there was a plugin for eclipse.
I thought eclipse was for Java though and I have never used it before
Its ~105MB download and I don't want to do that if it isn't worth it.

Hi!

Prolog Development Tools (ProDT) is a Prolog Integrated Development Environment (IDE) aiming to be as rich in functionality as the Eclipse's java IDE, giving the developer a single environment where it can control the development of a Prolog project from code edition, test execution, etc...

This project stands on top of Eclipse's projects to take advantage of its already existent features and its extensibility and works on any environment Eclipse works including windows, linux and mac OSX.

It support as underlying interpreters: SWI-prolog, XSB prolog, B-prolog

The site has more information about the project including installation and features list: http://prodevtools.sourceforge.net/

Hope you can find it useful!!!

Hoo boy. I wonder if Agmorgan is still monitoring a thread created four years ago?

Never noticed. Well, it's better late than never.

I think he might be the author because the exact same text with the same username is also posted on StackOverFlow and UbuntuForums.
Interesting to look back and see how I've moved on now though.
After completing that computing course involving prolog and C++ I changed from my job doing VB6 to a new company solely doing Java!

Long live the single post thread of 4.5 years!!!!!

I'm surprised you're back to reclaim your victory agmorgan :P

How did you even hear about this? Were you still subscribed to the thread after all these years?
