ILOG CPLEX 11.0 User's Manual > Discrete Optimization > Solution Pool: Generating and Keeping Multiple Solutions > Enumerating All Solutions > Limitations Due to Continuous Variables and Finite Precision

There may be an infinite number of possible values for a continuous variable, and it is not practical to enumerate all of them on a finite-precision computer. Therefore, populate gives only one solution for each set of binary and integer variables, even though there may exist several solutions that have the same values for all binary and integer variables but different values for continuous variables.
