https://logtalk.org/
This release adds linter warnings for deprecated arithmetic predicates and functions; adds warnings for comparing numbers using unification; adds support for using backend-declared deprecated built-in predicates in linter warnings; improves checking the availability of predicates in "user" for "uses/2" and "use_module/2" directives; avoids false positive linter warnings about non-terminals called as predicates when the caller is a phrase-like predicate declared in the backend adapter file; improves compiler reporting of term-expansion errors; fixes unknown and undefined predicate call warnings when the calls occur in an included file to report the actual location instead of the main file; fixes printing of grammar rules linter warnings to respect the "grammar_rules" flag; adds adapter files support for deprecated built-in predicates and for declaring phrase-like predicates that call non-terminals; improves the Handbook grammar section now uses W3C-style EBNF syntax compatible with the [Railroad Diagram Generator](https://www.bottlecaps.de/rr/ui), also fixing typos and omissions; improves the Handbook section on parametric objects; improves the documentation of the "wrapper" tool; adds an experimental "mutations" library for generating random mutations of terms of selected types (intended for eventual fuzz testing support); adds a "tsv" library for reading and writing TSV files; adds new predicates and non-terminals to the "types", "grammars", and "random" libraries; improves the performance of the "term_io" library predicates; includes updates and fixes to the "lgtunit", "tutor", and "wrapper" tools; fixes the PowerShell documentation scripts to avoid an error when converting XML files; improves the "logtalk_tester" scripts detection and reporting of broken test sets due to backend bugs; adds new "haunted_wasteland", "scratchcards", and "trebuchet" examples (solving Advent of Code 2023 problems); adds new tests, updates, and fixes issues with the "poem", "profiling", "self_vs_this", "errors", "bench", and "benchmarks" examples; adds additional tests for the "phrase/2-3" built-in methods and fixes an issue with a "setof/3" built-in method test; improves the macOS installer; fixes the "logtalk_user_setup.ps1" PowerShell script to use a valid path for the backup directory; and includes portability updates for B-Prolog, CxProlog, ECLiPSe, LVM, and SWI-Prolog.
