Files in ASPIF format can be loaded from files passed on the command line or via the API functions to load/parse files. For this purpose, the API functions have been extended with an optional parameter receiving a Control object. This breaks backward compatibility of the C-API regarding those functions. C++ projects should work by simply recompiling and Python projects are most likely not affected.
This allows systems like clingcon and clingo-dl to read ASPIF input.
Restrictions
Only one ASPIF file containing exactly one step can be loaded and the control object must not have been used for grounding yet.
The ASPIF format does not store a mapping from symbolic to numeric atoms. A best effort is made to generate one from it's output statement.
Example
$ echo "a." | clingo --mode=gringo | clingo 0
clingo version 5.6.0
