Re: sub_atom fails?

[David Logan]

Well, it doesn’t seem to be sub_atom as far as it goes. I wrote my own left() in order to do the same job, and the new code still fails with atom table full. At this point, I could use some direction as to why this may be happening. I do not see any nesting situation that would cause this. It appears to me that as I backtrack to the repeat clause, it should remove the atoms that are no longer in use.

I am trying to use sub_atom to get a substring. It fails with “atom table full.” When I remove that single line and instead hard code some value to “NewPrefix”, it works fine (other than not writing the correct words of course.) Is this a bug, or does anyone know why this would be legitimately failing?

I am not sure how this will arrive at users inboxes, so let me state that I am trying to attach two files: The test prolog file, and the input file I am using.

Thank you,
