Thanks a lot.
Indeed they are, it is a nice mailing list. Actually I got from there the background of the typed GP concepts.
Enjoy Rome.

It's good to see you got it working. Sorry I couldn't respond in time -- I'm presently in Rome this semester and my turnaround is much slower than normal.
I used to have a variant of Artificial Ant which did typed GP for a demo example, but sadly I can't find it anywhere. FWIW, if you search the ECJ mailing list archives you'll also find a lot of examples and discussion about strongly typed GP.

Hi all again.
I added the restrinctions that i needed (see bellow). I this thread will be useful to somebody.

Hi All,
Thanks for keep on reading.
I have found what I was looking for on this thread: The "nil" GPType in GPNodeConstraints. I am indeed trying to add the constraints that my model needs and I'm coming across some troubles.
Let me contextualize the problem. I'm generating a tree of AND and OR non-terminal nodes and a RULE-function as terminal nodes. I want to add some constrains so the generated tree follows this two rules:
1) The root of the tree must be an AND function.
2) At least one of the childs of the non-terminal nodes must be or a terminal-node (RULE) or an AND node.
I'm trying to add the described constrains like this:
First, I define the GPTypes as follows:
gp.type.a.size = 4 gp.type.a.0.name = nil # This one might not be necessary gp.type.a.1.name = rule gp.type.a.2.name = and gp.type.a.3.name = or gp.type.s.size = 0
To fulfill 1) I added the follow tree constrain:
gp.tc.0.returns = and
To fulfill 2) I added the follow node constrains:
gp.nc.size = 10
#--------------------# gp.nc.7 = ec.gp.GPNodeConstraints gp.nc.7.name = ncAND gp.nc.7.returns = and gp.nc.7.size = 2 gp.nc.7.child.0 = rule gp.nc.7.child.1 = or
#--------------------# gp.nc.8 = ec.gp.GPNodeConstraints gp.nc.8.name = ncRULE gp.nc.8.returns = rule gp.nc.8.size = 0
#--------------------#
gp.nc.9 = ec.gp.GPNodeConstraints gp.nc.9.name = ncOR gp.nc.9.returns = or gp.nc.9.size = 2 gp.nc.9.child.0 = rule gp.nc.9.child.1 = and
Then I add each constrains to the functions of the function set:
gp.fs.0.func.0 = ec.app.gp.ossimRuleGeneration.func.Or gp.fs.0.func.0.nc = ncOR
gp.fs.0.func.1 = ec.app.gp.ossimRuleGeneration.func.rule gp.fs.0.func.1.nc = ncRULE
gp.fs.0.func.2 = ec.app.gp.ossimRuleGeneration.func.And gp.fs.0.func.2.nc = ncAND
Note that with this constrains I am being more restrictive that what I have defined in 2), and actually it doesn't work because, as it is obvious, it never finish due there is always a non-terminal node as child in gp.nc.8.child.1 and gp.nc.9.child.1. The problem here is that I need gp.nc.8.child.1 and gp.nc.9.child.1 to be some times AND and some others RULE, so the GP program will eventually finish.
And I will like to set gp.nc.8.child.0 and gp.nc.9.child.0 some times to RULE and some others to AND to fully satisfy 2)
Is there any way? How can I do such things.
Thanks in advance.

Hello!
First of all, thanks for reading.
I need to add some Constraints to my GP program so each function that I have can only accept a specific subset of children. For this, should specify this on the params files or I have to add some checks on the checkConstraints method for each GPNode.
Does anybody know an example on the web about this that I can follow?
Thanks in advance.
