Re: Interfacing Java to GNU Prolog (via C?)

[Jean Michel LECONTE]

Try with sockets cause thts working on windows too.
try to reach that URL http://contraintes.inria.fr/~fages/CLPGUI/ and get the 
CLPGUI system. There is an interface between Prolog and Java through 
sockets. (and thts very easy to understand)
