   Mild Shock to All   
   ANN: Dogelog Player 1.1.6 (HTTP Client)

   Dear All,   
      
   We are happy to announce a new edition   
   of the Dogelog player:   
      
   - Enhanced '$YIELD'/1:   
      Previously the '$YIELD'/1 instruction was hard coded   
   to understand an integer for sleep/1 and an atom for   
   native library loading. The implementation has been   
   change to accept a Promise object, known from   
   JavaScript. Emulations were made available for   
   Java and Python.   
      
   - Async I/O:   
      Based on the new '$YIELD'/1 and a buffer fast path   
   idea, the console reading, file property and file   
   reading have been asyncified. There is no change in   
   the Prolog API, files are still to be opened via the   
   ISO core open/3 and accessed via ISO core get_code/2   
   respectively ISO core peek_code/2. But input can now   
   be executed quasi-parallel by multiple tasks.   
      
   - HTTP client:   
      The ISO core open/4 has been moved to the library(spin).   
   The support of the HTTP and HTTPS protocol in open/3   
   and open/4, has been extended from the JavaScript   
   browser to the JavaScript command line (by means of   
   new fetch in nodejs >21). Further supported targets   
   are now Python and Java (by means of new HTTP client   
   in JDK >21).   
      
   Have Fun!
