This implementation class derives from the abstract implementation class
IlcSearchLimitI. Instances of IlcMTSearchLimitI
are implementation objects of search limits for multithreaded search.
Handle and Implementation Classes
A search limit is an object in Concert Technology. Like other Concert
Technology entities, a search limit is implemented by means of two classes:
a handle class and an implementation class. In other words, an instance of
the class IlcMTSearchLimit (a handle) contains a data member
(the handle pointer) that points to an instance of the class
IlcMTSearchLimitI (its implementation object).
Purpose of a Search Limit
A search limit is used to prune part of the search tree. The member
function check indicates whether the limit has been
reached.
A search limit has its own life cycle:
duplicate.
init is called automatically by Concert Technology code.Implementing Your Own Search Limit
You implement a search limit much the same way as you implement a search selector.
The function IlcMTMinimizeVar returns an
instance of IlcMTSearchSelector. In the documentation of that
function, we describe part of its implementation details. From that
description, you see how a search selector is used and what you must include
in your own implementation of a search selector.
To get an idea of how to implement your own search limit, see
IlcMTMinimizeVar.

| Constructor Detail |
|---|
This constructor creates a search limit for multithreaded search. The parameter
duplicate indicates whether the object is an internal copy used by the solver
(duplicate = IlcTrue), or whether it is just a template.
