[cilib-devel] getPopulationSize()

[Gary P. <gpa...@gm...>]

Hi all,

There seems to be an API ambiguity with topologies and I would like to sort it 
out.

Currently, the getPopulationSize() is returning the size of the topology that 
the PopulationInitialisationStrategy is creating. This, therefore, remains 
constant throughout the run of the algorithm, whereas topology.size() may 
differ in size.

I would suggest that the getPopulationSize() method needs to be removed. Would 
anyone be apposed to such a change? We would still be able to ask the 
PopulationInitialisationStrategy for what the initial population size was 
(this would be beeded for the EC algorithms).

Regards,
Gary
