Purpose
This function starts the search for an optimal solution of the problem that minimizes a specific variable. Upon termination of the function (when no limitation has been set on the search process), the last solution found (if any exists) is proven optimal.
Synopsis
function cp_minimize(obj:cpvar) : boolean
function cp_minimize(obj:cpfloatvar) : boolean
Argument
obj 
the decision variable to minimize
Return value
true if a solution has been found, false if the problem is inconsistent (no solution exists)
Example
The following code shows how to use this function to minimize the objective Cost: 
optimizeProcess := cp_minimize(Cost)
