Detailed Description

The abstract base class of any user-defined class that Alps has to know about in order to encode/decode.

These classes must all be registered so that the proper decode method can be called.

This method should encode the content of the object and return a pointer to the encoded form.

NOTE: This default implementation can not be used when the memory of data members is not continously allocated, for example, some data members are pointers, STL set, map, etc.

Reimplemented in AbcModel, BlisModel, BlisModel, AlpsSubTree, VrpModel, BlisTreeNode, AbcTreeNode, BlisTreeNode, BlisPseudocost, KnapTreeNode, KnapModel, AbcSolution, BlisSolution, KnapSolution, BlisSolution, and VrpSolution.

virtual AlpsReturnStatus AlpsKnowledge::encode ( AlpsEncoded *  encoded )

inlinevirtual

Pack into a encode object.

Reimplemented in BcpsObject, BlisVariable, BlisVariable, BlisConstraint, VrpVariable, and BlisConstraint.

This method should decode and return a pointer to a brand new object, i.e., the method must create a new object on the heap from the decoded data instead of filling up the object for which the method was invoked.
