[OpenCyc-devel] Cyc API for Smalltalk?

From: Conrad Taylor <conradwt@gm...> - 2007-08-20 02:22

Hi, I was wondering, if there is a Cyc API for Smalltalk or does one have to
generate their own for interfacing with Cyc?
Thanks in advance,

-Conrad

No there is not a Cyc API for Smalltalk that I know of. In any case, at the
Cyc Foundation we've been moving the focus to Web services, so that you can
access Cyc's capabilities more easily regardless of language. It's not the
right answer in all situations, but it is useful in a lot of cases.

Here is a list of some available services.

More will be becoming available. If you have specific requests, let us know.

Thanks,

John De Oliveira
The Cyc Foundation

Hi John, thanks for getting back to me.  I guess that I'll look at into the
web services and I'll look into creating a Smalltalk wrapper as well.
Thanks again,

-Conrad

Hi, is it true that the web services doesn't require the installation of
OpenCyc on Windows/Linux?

It depends on if you want to call services hosted by us (non-profit, not
supported), Cycorp (commercial, supported) or yourself (free, you install
OpenCyc server). In the last case, you'd install once and access from
anywhere on the Web.

For comparison, you might want to look at this MQL query API on Freebase:
http://www.freebase.com/view/queryeditor/

Click on an example and click the "read" button.  All the nulls in the JSON
object are filled in and returned, similar to binding unbound variables.

Does the Cyc API have a "cursor" interface to handle returning large data sets?
I mentioned MQL because it has this feature and might be instructive to look
at it.
