[gecode-users] Obtaining information about variablesHi for variable selection

Hi,

Is it possible to obtain the information used in the branch() variable 
selection. I am currently most interested in the degree (number of 
propagator depending on a variable) for the IntVars, because there I 
can't find any easy way to obtain this information, but I assume Gecode 
keeps this information internally.

The reason I am interested in this information is for the interface to 
Gecode I am developing for ECLiPSe. I now have a basic working version 
where Gecode is used to perform the propagation of the constraints, 
while ECLiPSe does the search, which include variable and value 
selections. I need the degree information for variable selection, and 
because the selection is done in ECLiPSe, I cannot use branch().

Thanks in advance for any help and information!

Cheers,

Kish
