I'm interested in using JPL with java, but an error message is prompting like 'package jpl does not exist' while trying to compile the java program. How do i import jpl to java?

You need to do sudo apt-get install swi-prolog and then sudo apt-get install swi-prolog-java

You need to download the JPL package/s , then make it accessible to your class(I'm not exactly sure where to put it, but probably in the /lib of your java directory) . See here : http://www.swi-prolog.org/download/stable

  • Yes, this is it! Choose your OS . BTW please vote up for me :) – Caffeinated Sep 26 '11 at 17:14
  • Thanks! Ok if it's installed you just need to find the package, then import it correctly in your Java class. – Caffeinated Sep 26 '11 at 17:21

  • Try this for help - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=282429 this - http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/java/threads/105863 . basically I think you need to find your "build path" , add the external jar files. – Caffeinated Sep 26 '11 at 17:30
