This folder contains an example of using tabled predicates within objects. Currently supported compilers include B-Prolog, XSB, SWI-Prolog (when the tabling library is available), and YAP (when compiled with tabling enabled).

Current tabling implementations don't provide a solution for ignoring the implicit execution-context argument that the Logtalk compiler adds to all compiled predicates. Thus, different object sending a message for a tabled predicate will result in the equivalent of multiple tables. The same will happen if the sender of the message is a parametric object and different parameterizations are used. A possible workaround is to always send the message from the same (non-parametric) object (e.g. user).
