Globally can be whatever you fancy! So, typically via malloc or new. Gecode is very liberal (it is not Mozart ;-) )

That's the case for complete set variables as they use BDDs that might indeed be shared across spaces. It is also our case, in which a graph variable is partially represented by a boost graph which is shared among spaces. If i understand you correctly there is a way to allocate memory from the space and another one to allocate memory from a "global" heap (still managed by gecode). Is this right?, or when you talk about allocate globally you mean allocate from the operating system?. Regards, Gustavo
