Object passing

[Brendan McCarthy]

Hello,

A few questions:

(1) Is there a way to create a Term wrapping an arbitrary Java object in order to pass to Prolog? The examples all involve the runtime creating the $obj_n terms automagically from the method signature or by calling new. I can workaround with some effort, but just wondering if there is an easier way.

(2) Is there a way to pass a java object back from Prolog to java? It seems when I try this I only the the "$obj_n" string.

Thanks in advance,

i'm trying to integrate tuProlog in my AI platform http://lightjason.org and I'm using native / pure Java objects in my term structure, I have taken a look into the code and imho an idea to solve the problem is to build a new term-type e.g.

public Raw extends Term
{
}

and the term class must be extend with a method to determine if a term is a raw object and returning the raw data

public boolean isRaw();
public <T> T raw();

and the TermVisitor class must be extend to a visit method to catch the data

public void visit( final Raw p_value );

Is this a possible enhancment?
