/**
 * A specific Exception to deal with contradiction.
 * 
 * A contradiction appears when at least one Variable object is not coherent
 * regarding all or part of Constraint network.
 * Empty domain, instantiation to an out-of-domain value, etc. throws contradiction.
 * 
 * For performance consideration, a ContradictionException is created every time a contradiction
 * occurs. A unique object is build and set with specific case information.
