Ah yes I see, misread it.

I thought of option B myself aswell, a valid solution (since multiple
Observations should be using the same block) but couldnt get it working.
>From what I understand it should be used like this:
@ValueRange(type = ValueRangeType.FROM_PLANNING_ENTITY_PROPERTY)
But the only time I have seen the above used was in a version 5.5 or lower
(I'm using 6.0.1.Final) and my optaplanner-core dependency can't find
@ValueRange annotation.
I however did notice use of something similiar in the 6.0.1 documentation
(http://docs.jboss.org/drools/release/6.0.1.Final/optaplanner-docs/html_single/index.html#d0e2678)
look for "4.3.5.2.2. ValueRangeProvider on a planning entity". But can't
seem to find the code for this in the 6.0.1.Final code example.
So basically my question comes down to how do i use "ValueRange from
planning entity" I tried searching for it but couldn't find it anywehere
except on version 5.5 or below as describer above.
