VDS Properties

The VDS type exposes the following members.

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyDYNAMIC_PROGRAMMING_HEURISTIC Obsolete.
Recommend setting this as true (it is only used if ROSTER_CONSTRUCTION_HEURISTICS is set to true).
Public propertyMAX_DP_HEURISTIC_MEMORY Obsolete.
If RESTRICT_MEMORY_USAGE is true and DYNAMIC_PROGRAMMING_HEURISTIC is true then this is the maximum memory (in megabytes) to use for the dynamic programming heuristic. Increasing this value can improve the performance on some instances. Setting it too high though may just increase the running time of the heuristic without significantly improving the solution. The default value is 10.0.
Public propertyPauseEvent
Used to pause the solver while it is running.
Public propertyRandomSeed
The random seed to use if SYSTEM_TIME_RANDOM_SEED is set to false. If the same random seed is used for an instance then the solver will always create the same final solution (as long as the same amount of time is used).
Public propertyRESTRICT_MEMORY_USAGE Obsolete.
If this is set to false, then there will be no limit on the amount of memory the dynamic programing heuristic can use. This can result in better solutions for some instances but could also result in very high memory usage on some instances. (It is recommended to set this as true).
Public propertySolverCaller

It is recommended to instead use the SolverStatusUpdated event to receive feedback from the solver as it is solving.

This is used to get information from the solver while it is solving.

Public propertyStopped
If this is set to true while the Solve method is executing then the solver will stop and return the best solution found so far.
Public propertyTimeCheckerStopped
Indicates whether the solver was stopped early.
Public propertyTitle
Returns a title/name for the algorithm.
Public propertyTotalEvaluations
Returns the number of unique solutions created/tested by the algorithm.
(Inherited from LocalSearch.)
Public propertyVERBOSE
Prints some running information during solving if true.
