Detailed Description

Abstract branching object base class.

In the abstract, an OsiBranchingObject contains instructions for how to branch. We want an abstract class so that we can describe how to branch on simple objects (e.g., integers) and more exotic objects (e.g., cliques or hyperplanes).

The branch() method is the crucial routine: it is expected to be able to step through a set of branch arms, executing the actions required to create each subproblem in turn. The base class is primarily virtual to allow for a wide range of problem modifications.

See OsiObject for an overview of the two classes (OsiObject and OsiBranchingObject) which make up Osi's branching model.
