meta_compiler
This library supports implementations optimized compilation of
meta-calls for the predicates defined in the meta library.

Loading
To load the main entities in this library, load the loader.lgt file:
| ?- logtalk_load(meta_compiler(loader)).
Testing
To test this library predicates, load the tester.lgt file:
| ?- logtalk_load(meta_compiler(tester)).
Usage
If meta_compiler is the only hook object you are using, you can set
it as the default hook object (but note that the optimizations are only
applied to entities compiled with the optimize flag turned on):
| ?- set_logtalk_flag(hook, meta_compiler).
...
Otherwise, use the hook(meta_compiler) and optimize(on) complier
options when compiling and loading the code that you want to optimize.
For example:
| ?- logtalk_load(my_source_file, [hook(meta_compiler), optimize(on)]).
...
