A declaration
:- meta_predicate MetaPredSpec, ..., MetaPredSpec.
where each MetaPredSpec is a mode spec, informs the compiler that certain arguments of the declared predicates are used for passing goals. To ensure the correct semantics in the context of multiple modules, clauses or directives containing goals for the declared predicates may need to have those arguments module name expanded. See Meta Exp, for details.
