thankyou for the perfect manual. I followed the procedure on windows - 10. at a certain point, library file rocksdb was missing, i downloaded it manually and i put it into the library directory , after that in the swipl prompt ? use\_module(library(rocksdb)). resolves to true ( so it finds it ) . It works now , somehow the rocksdb-4pl.dll wasnt copied the first time, i repeated the copy comands and now it works , thankyou for the extensive manual
