/** <module> Engine (interactor) support


*/

%!  engine_create(?Template, :Goal, ?Engine) is det.
%!  engine_create(?Template, :Goal, -Engine, +Options) is det.
%
%   Create a new engine, prepared to run  Goal and return answers as
%   instances of Template. Goal is not started.

engine_create(Template, Goal, Engine) :-
    (   atom(Engine)
    ->  '$engine_create'(Engine, Template+Goal, [alias(Engine)])
    ;   '$engine_create'(Engine, Template+Goal, [])
    ).
engine_create(Template, Goal, Engine, Options) :-
    '$engine_create'(Engine, Template+Goal, Options).

%!  engine_next(+Engine, -Term) is semidet.
%
%   Switch control to Engine and if engine produces a result, switch
%   control  back  and  unify   the    instance   of  Template  from
%   engine_create/3,4 with Term. Repeatedly calling engine_next/2 on
%   Engine retrieves new instances of  Template by backtracking over
%   Goal. Fails of Goal has no  more   solutions.  If Goal raises an
%   exception the exception is re-raised by this predicate.

%!  engine_next_reified(+Engine, -Term) is det.
%
%   Similar to engine_next/2 but returning answers in reified form.
%   Answers  are  returned  using  the  terms  the(Answer), no, and
%   throw(Error).

engine_next_reified(Engine, Answer) :-
    (   catch(engine_next(Engine, Answer0), Error, true)
    ->  (   var(Error)
        ->  Answer = the(Answer0)
        ;   Answer = throw(Error)
        )
    ;   Answer = no
    ).

%!  engine_post(+Engine, +Package) is det.
%
%   Make the term Package available   for engine_fetch/1 from within
%   the engine. At most one term can   be  made available. Posting a
%   package does not cause  the  engine   to  wakeup.  Therefore, an
%   engine_next/2 call must follow a call to this predicate to make
%   the engine fetch the package. The predicate engine_post/3
%   combines engine_post/2 and engine_next/2.
%
%   @error permission_error(post_to, engine, Package) if a package
%   was already posted and has not yet been fetched by the engine.

%!  engine_post(+Engine, +Package, -Reply) is semidet.
%
%   Same as engine_next/2, but transfer Term to Engine if Engine
%   calls engine_fetch/1. Acts as:
%
%     ==
%     engine_post(Engine, Package, Answer) :-
%         engine_post(Engine, Package),
%         engine_next(Engine, Answer).
%     ==

%!  engine_destroy(+Engine) is det.
%
%   Destroy Engine. Eventually, engine  destruction   will  also  be
%   subject to symbol garbage collection.

%!  engine_yield(+Term) is det.
%
%   Make engine_answer/2 return with the given term.

engine_yield(Term) :-
    '$engine_yield'(Term, 256).

%!  engine_self(E) is semidet.
%
%   True if executed inside engine E

engine_self(E) :-
    thread_self(E),
    is_engine(E).

%!  current_engine(?E)
%
%   True if E is a currently know engine.

current_engine(E) :-
    thread_property(E, engine(true)).

%!  '$engine_yield'(?Term, +Code:integer)
%
%   Cause PL_next_solution() to return with   Code, providing access
%   to  Term  through  PL_yielded().   Can    only   be   called  if
%   PL_open_query() is called with PL_Q_ALLOW_YIELD.  Code tells the
%   code that controls PL_next_solution() what to   do and the codes
%   used must be agreed upon for   a specific application. Code must
%   be an integer >= 256. Other  return   codes  are reserved by the
%   system.

'$engine_yield'(_Term, _Code) :-
    '$yield'.
