bb_get/3

gets the term which is stored with a certain key in a blackboard.

bb_get(+BoardName, ?Key, ?Term)

Blackboards are collections of (Key,Value) tuples. bb_get/3 allows to inspect the tuples of a blackboard.

  • If Key is a ground term hashing will be used to retrieve the associated Value entry. If there is a tuple (Key,Value) in the blackboard Value will be unified with Term. Otherwise the predicate fails.

  • If Key is not a ground term, by backtracking all tuples (K,V) of the blackboard will be retrieved and unified with the term (Key,Value).

Arguments

Board                  blackboard
Key                    ground term
Term                   term

Examples

Assume there exists a blackboard 'blackboard' with elements (100, abc), (101, element101), (102, abc).

bb_get(blackboard,102, abc). Succeeds.
bb_get(blackboard, 100, X). Succeeds with substitution X <- abc
bb_get(blackboard, Key, abc). Succeeds twice with substitution
Key <- 100
Key <- 102
bb_get(blackboard, Key, Term). Succeeds three times with substitution
X <- abc
X <- element101
X <- abc

Standard

This predicate is not part of the ISO-Prolog Standard.
