Shortly after posting to the list I found something useful on Github (funny how that works sometimes). This code uses Java Process and ProcessBuilder classes to communicate with gprolog. The repo is a bit old but I think with some freshening up it should do pretty much what I want. https://github.com/adamcrussell/GPJaSI

Still open to alternative suggestions though if anyone has them!

Subject: interfacing Java and Gnu Prolog

I am wondering if there is any (easy) way to interface gprolog from Java? Attempts to google search “Gnu Prolog and Java” and similar all result in links to a separate Gnu Prolog for Java project which as far as I can tell is an unrelated and no longer maintained effort to implement a Prolog in Java?

To be specific, I would like to implement a scheduler in Prolog but call it from Java. I’ve used swi’s jpl in the past  and it works fine, but would prefer Gnu Prolog. Seems easier to add to a docker image. 😉
