Method Detail

newNode

public boolean newNode(AbstractGlobalSearchSolver solver)

Description copied from interface: IGlobalSearchLimit

notify the limit object whenever a new node is created in the search tree

Parameters:

solver - the controller of the search exploration, managing the limit

Returns:

true if the limit accepts the creation of the new node, false otherwise

endNode

public boolean endNode(AbstractGlobalSearchSolver solver)

Description copied from interface: IGlobalSearchLimit

notify the limit object whenever the search closes a node in the search tree

Parameters:

solver - the controller of the search exploration, managing the limit

Returns:

true if the limit accepts the death of the new node, false otherwise
