Dear all, I met a problem when using ​restart in Gecode.
I simply use restart to find all solutions for 4-Queens while use the same heuristic after each restart: ./nqueen_rbs -restart geometric -restart-scale 2 -restart-base 10 -nogoods 1 -nogoods-limit 128 4 But I got into an infinite loop which keeps printing the first solution. According to the newest version of document "MPG" (page 160), the master() function posts no-goods when the a solution is found. This means the same solution will not be found again. I rewrite the master() function by changing the last line "return true" into "return false", now all solutions are generated without trapped into a loop. I am wondering why the infinite loop happens and whether Gecode has truly recorded previous solutions as nogoods as the document says. Thanks for help. Zichen
