v4.10.11

[cprudhom]

4.10.11 - 07 Feb 2023

From this version on, only one library will be available for direct download, namely choco-solver-4.10.11.
This library contains both the core (a.k.a, choco-solver module) and the extension for parsing model files (a.k.a, choco-parsers).
However, it is still possible (and recommended) to use Maven.

Major features:

• Correcting the lack of filtering in PropIncreasing
• Change the SetType for the undirected graph stored in DiffN for efficiency reason
• SparseBitSet for a backtrackable bitset with mostly 0s (SparseBitSet for a backtrackable bitset with mostly 0s. #935)
• Change the way restarting works: not a Move anymore, directly included in Solver (Dev restart #950)
• Simplification of objective manager (Simplification of objective manager #949)
• Calling getValue() on an uninstantiated variable throws an IllegalStateException (Calling getValue() on an uninstantiated variable throws an IllegalStateException #957)
• Change the MiniZinc complementary search to a FirstFail (instead of DomOverWDeg) (Change the MiniZinc complementary search to a FirstFail #958)
• Reduce object creation during solving (Reduce object creation during solving #985)
• Reduce object creation during propagation (Reduce object creation during propagation #969)
• Reduce memory footprint of Model (Dev memo #964)
• Add model.getEstimatedMemory() method
• Add Model analysis (Model analysis #939)
• Add log file as RegParser option (for parsers)
• creation of PropPower propagators with exponent as int

Deprecated API (to be removed in next release):

From Solver:

• Propagate getPropagate()
• void setPropagate(Propagate p)
• Closeable outputSearchTreeToCPProfiler(boolean domain)

Others:

• Propagate class
• IntEventType: int combine(IntEventType... evts)
