IloShiftListObject

The class IloShiftListObject inherits from the class IloShiftObject. It allows expressing shifts as a list of forbidden time intervals. Depending on the type of the shift list object, the time restriction can concern the whole activity execution or only its start or its end. Three different types are defined:

OnStart: Shifts only concern the start of the activity. For instance, if the shift is the interval [a,b), then the start of the activity must be strictly smaller than a or greater than b.
OnEnd: Shifts only concern the end of the activity. For instance, if the shift is the interval [a,b), then the end of the activity must be strictly smaller than a or greater than b.
OnOverlap: Shifts concern the whole activity. That is the activity cannot overlap shifts. For instance, if the shift is the interval [a,b), then the end of the activity must be strictly smaller than a or the start must be greater than b.

In addition, each time interval (see IloIntervalList in the extensions section of the IBM ILOG Concert Technology Reference Manual), can be associated with an integer type. In such cases, activity parameters (see IloActivityShiftParam) can specify which types must be ignored.

Inner Enumeration
IloShiftListObject::Type

IloShiftListObject

This constructor creates an instance that is empty, that is, one whose handle pointer is null. You must assign it a value before you access it. Any attempt to access it before assignment leads to undefined behaviour.

IloShiftListObject

This constructor creates an instance of the handle class from the pointer to an instance of the implementation class.

IloShiftListObject

This constructor creates a new instance of IloShiftListObject. By default, the shift list is empty. Its name is set to name

IloShiftListObject

This constructor creates a new instance of IloShiftListObject. The shift list is set to shiftList and the type is set to type. Its name is set to name

getImpl

This member function returns a pointer to the implementation object of the invoking handle.

getReadOnlyShiftListParam

This member function returns the time interval list that represents the set of forbidden dates of the invoking shift object.

getType

This member function returns the type that defines the behavior of the shifts during the search (see IloShiftListObject::Type).

setShiftListParam

This member function sets shiftList as the new shift list of the invoking shift object.

setType

This member function sets type as the new type of the invoking shift object.

Enumeration Type

The Type of IloShiftListObject allows you to define the behavior during the search regarding the variables of concerned activities. The possible types are:

OnStart: Shifts only affect the start of the activity. For instance, if the shift is the interval [a,b), then the start of the activity must be strictly smaller than a or greater than b.
OnEnd: Shifts only affect the end of the activity. For instance, if the shift is the interval [a,b), then the end of the activity must be strictly smaller than a or greater than b.
OnOverlap: Shifts affect the whole activity. That is, the activity cannot overlap shifts. For instance, if the shift is the interval [a,b), then the end of the activity must be strictly smaller than a, or the start must be greater than b.

`OnStart = 0`
`OnEnd = 1`
`OnOverlap = 2`
