Francisco, ECJ can't do this by default: and I really have no idea how to require this constraint.  You'll have to either enforce this rule in the tree builder algorithm and/or the crossover mutation operators.  Alternatively you can assess the fitness of non-confirming individuals as very low.

That is, to specify in some manner that the nodes must appear at least once. Moreover, I'd like to know if it is possible to set that one node must appear a number of times in the solution.
