This library (Castor) may be of interest to the "paradigm redefining" Boost community also ... -Roshan Naik ------------------------------------------------------------ Castor is a pure C++ Library that introduces the Logic paradigm (LP) into C++. Although LP has been well explored in Computer science, it remains under utilized in main stream software development due to lack of support in popular programming languages. Among the few languages that do support it, Prolog is perhaps the most commonly known. Instead of attempting to embed a Logic interpreter or other heavy weight engine into C++, Castor integrates LP using a few simple library primitives. This unique approach allows a natural and deep integration of declarative code into the language, and also provides the flexibility of combining Logic with other paradigms natively supported by C++ such as OOP, generics etc. STL concepts like iterators ,containers and streams can also be used in declarative code. Castor is an open source library distributed under the MIT license (http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php). It is relatively small (under 5k LOC) and can be downloaded for free from http://www.mpprogramming.com For an introductory tutorial on LP and understanding its use in C++ refer to http://www.mpprogramming.om/resources/CastorTutorial.pdf Feedback, comments and contributions are welcome.
