Potential bug
See original GitHub issueHi, I am Francesco from the University of Trento, I am working on a project with other researchers and we encountered a difficulty when using Choco on a couple of instances (attached here: choco-instances.zip), which we was hoping you could kindly help us with. In essence, the problem is that Choco is able to find an optimal solution, whereas all other tested solvers (OptiMathSAT, Picat, Gecode, HaifaCSP, G12-FD, iZplus,OR-tool), return UNSAT. The minizinc problem was encoded as a flatzinc instance using the Choco library of global constraints (we tried also to translate the minizinc input into flatzinc without using the library of global constraints and the result didn’t change). The tool was run with the command:
java -cp .: path/to/choco-parsers-4.0.4-with-dependencies.jar org.chocosolver.parser.flatzinc.ChocoFZN file.fzn
We used this version of the tool: choco-parsers-4.0.4-with-dependencies
Thanks for your assistance, Best Regards

Or simply that the constraint is not correctly defined.
Thank you for the bug reporting. There is something in the flatzinc file that is detected as an inconsistency by other solver:
I assume that the other solvers interpret the second constraint as “X_INTRODUCED_2817_ is true”, which contradicts the first constraint.
Maybe I should also consider that “void -> true” instead of “void -> undef”.
Best regards, CP
