## Abstract

XRL is an integrated knowledg~ programming en vi r-onmcn t whose major resea..-c h theme is ttl(investigation of declarative knowledge prograMming ~txles and tools, and of the way they can bC effectively inte9rated and used to support AI programming. Thts investigation is carried out in the context of the structured-object represen tal ion paradigm which provides the glue keeping XRL components together. The paper describes several declaral1ve programming styles and associated support tools currently available in XRL.
