What i need now is to put some references to the newly added variables
in a "root" array. For instance, after merging the money problem space
into a queens of size 5 problem space i expect to have 8 more
variables. Also i need to have references to that variables from the q
IntVarArray (for instance, to post new constraints).

I have a question about the VarMap or VarMapIter. Is it possible to
know how many variables a VarMap stores, or to access VarBase objects
through VarMapIter?.  My idea is to iterate on the VarMap and to add
the VarBase corresponding objects to the q array. The problem is that
i don't find a method to get the size of the map to use it in a for
loop. The VarMapIter only provides access to variable specifications
but not to VarBase objects.
