I am getting an access violation when trying to abolish some facts.
All the functions involved are from the file dynam_supp.c file (BipsPL)
Inspecting the code (dynam_supp.c) I think the problem is that there is a
special marker (ALL_MUST_BE_ERASED) with value 2 that is used in Erase_All to
mark that you want to erase all clauses(in member first_erased_cl).
However, when Clean_Erased_Clauses() is called it may be the case that the the
first_erased_cl is also marked to keep (because it is still used in the local
stack) leading to keep member first_erased_cl with ALL_MUST_BE_ERASED and not
its previous value.
Now, if PlDelete_Dynamic_Clause is called (e.g. due to a retract), then member
next_erased_cl might be copied with that special value ALL_MUST_BE_ERASED.
Then if Clean_Erased_Clauses() is called again and now this snippet fails
for (clause = dyn->first_erased_cl; clause; clause = clause1)
{
clause1 = clause->next_erased_cl;
size_of_erased -= clause->term_size;
Unlink_Clause(clause);
Free_Clause(clause);
}
because clause->next_erased_cl might hold ALL_MUST_BE_ERASED instead of NULL,
which is the stopping condition of that for loop.
