Work on issues reported by Ulrich Neumerkel #23

Closed triska closed 4 years ago

triska commented 9 years ago

The convenor of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22/WG 17 has reported hundreds of issues for SWI-Prolog. Some of them are of critical importance to strengthen the role of SWI-Prolog as a reliable platform.

The issues are available from:

http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/ulrich/swi-prolog/Current

Some of these issues are no longer applicable (because they are fixed in recent SWI versions), but the vast majority of them are still highly relevant.

Any help with any of these items would be very appreciated. New contributors can look through this list and close some of these issues.

A good start would be to re-evaluate all of them, preferably by making runnable test cases from them. I just scanned some. Many have been fixed. Some are deliberate deviations from ISO, some are laziness and some deliberate choices to avoid a lot of boilerplate code to throw exactly the right error with the right context.
