Prolog++ is an object-oriented toolkit for the Prolog logic programming language. It allows classes and

class hierarchies A class hierarchy or inheritance tree in computer science is a classification of object types, denoting objects as the instantiations of classes (class is like a blueprint, the object is what is built from that blueprint) inter-relating the vario ...

to be created within Prolog programs. Prolog++ was developed by LPA and first released in 1989 for MS-DOS PCs. Support for other platforms was added, and a second version was released in 1995. A book entitled 'Prolog++ The Power of Object-Oriented and Logic Programming' by Chris Moss was published by Addison-Wesley in 1994. Currently, Prolog++ is available as an add-on to LPA Prolog for Windows. Three other approaches to object-oriented Prolog include PDC
