DLV-Complex: The Project

DLV-Complex is an Answer Set Programming System extending DLV by means of functions. It is a very powerful ASP system supporting (recursive) functions, sets, and lists, along with libraries for their manipulations. DLV-Complex is based on the DLV system and on the DLV-EX framework, from which it inherits the possibility of defining external predicates.

Downloads

DLV-Complex is actively developed. To receive notifications about new releases and other important events regarding DLV-Complex, just have a look at this page, or drop us a note here.

Please always use the most current version of DLV-Complex (cf. version history).

Latest Version

Standard Version

We currently provide a command-line version in binary form for Linux, Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP/Vista and Mac OS.

Static Version

We offer also a statically linked executable (currently only linux and windows versions), that includes list and set manipulation libraries. This version do not need any pre-installed dynamic library on your system; in addition, it is self-contained, meaning that you do not need to download any library (such as those below) in order to enjoy full lists and set support. It is ready-to-use. :) Nevertheless, this version do not support external predicates/libraries (see DLV-EX page).

Latest Libraries

  • List-And-Set library is needed in order to exploit built-in manipulation functions/predicates for list and set terms, unless you use a static version of DLV-Complex.

  • Other external predicate libraries can be found on the DLV-EX page.

Developing New External Predicates and Libraries

You can find below everything is necessary in order to develop and build your own external dynamic libraries.

Built-in Development Kit

Notes

  • Please note that the archives consist of two folders:
    • "LIB", containing headers and scripts needed in order to create new External Builtins libraries.

    • "doc", containing a manual and a tutorial for helping the user creating new external predicates. For further information, have a look at the documentation.

  • In order to compile your own libraries, you will need libtool. Take care of use the correct version of libtool for your system, or you may experience problems in creating dynamic libraries.

  • HINT for windows developers: you might find very useful the MinGW/MSYS environment.

Documentation & Examples

We provide here a quick reference guide, a short tutorial and some examples. Documentation and examples will be updated accordingly to the evolution of the system, so check them out periodically. Documentation about the creation of new built-in libraries is included in the development kit.
