This directory contains examples of how to use a Dynamic Link Library (DLL) created with Visual Prolog in Microsoft Visual C++ (see Using Visual Prolog DLL’s from other languages for an overview of the examples)
All these examples uses the same Visual Prolog DLL’s that are found in the DLLS directory, so these have to be compiled before any of the examples are compiled and run.
Please also read the common notes.
