Class: Solution

Solution of a Model. When a model is solved, the solution is stored in this object. The solution contains values of all variables in the model (including optional variables) and the value of the objective (if the model specified one).

Evaluation version of OptalCP

Note that in the evaluation version of OptalCP, the values of variables in the solution are masked and replaced by value absent (null in JavaScript).

Constructors

new Solution()

new Solution(): Solution

Creates an empty solution. That is, all variables are absent, and the objective value is undefined.

Use this function to create an external solution that can be passed to the solver before the solve starts as a warmStart (see solve, Solver) or during the solve using Solver.sendSolution.

Returns

Solution

Methods

getEnd()

getEnd(variable: IntervalVar): null | number

Returns the end of the given interval variable in the solution. If the variable is absent in the solution, it returns null.

In the evaluation version of OptalCP, this function always returns null because real values of variables are masked and replaced by value absent.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
variable	IntervalVar

Returns

null | number

---

getObjective()

getObjective(): ObjectiveValue

Returns the objective value of the solution. If the model did not specify an objective returns undefined. If the objective value is absent (see optional IntExpr) then it returns null.

The correct value is reported even in the evaluation version of OptalCP.

Returns

ObjectiveValue

---

getStart()

getStart(variable: IntervalVar): null | number

Returns the start of the given interval variable in the solution. If the variable is absent in the solution, it returns null.

In the evaluation version of OptalCP, this function always returns null because real values of variables are masked and replaced by value absent.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
variable	IntervalVar

Returns

null | number

---

isAbsent()

isAbsent(variable: IntervalVar): boolean

Returns true if the given variable is absent in the solution, i.e., if its value is absent. See optional IntervalVar.

In the evaluation version of OptalCP, this function always returns true because real values of variables are masked and replaced by value absent.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
variable	IntervalVar

Returns

boolean

---

setAbsent()

setAbsent(intervalVar: IntervalVar): void

Sets the given variable to be absent in the solution.

This function can be used for construction of an external solution that can be passed to the solver (see solve, Solver and Solver.sendSolution).

Parameters

Parameter	Type
intervalVar	IntervalVar

Returns

void

---

setObjective()

setObjective(value: ObjectiveValue): void

Sets objective value of the solution.

This function can be used for construction of an external solution that can be passed to the solver (see solve, Solver and Solver.sendSolution).

Parameters

Parameter	Type
value	ObjectiveValue

Returns

void

---

setValue()

setValue(intervalVar: IntervalVar, start: number, end: number): void

Sets the start and end of the given interval variable in the solution. I.e., the interval variable will be present in the solution.

This function can be used for construction of an external solution that can be passed to the solver (see solve, Solver and Solver.sendSolution).

Parameters

Parameter	Type
intervalVar	IntervalVar
start	number
end	number

Returns

void
