[galib] An unconstrained gene

Hi all,
I have a genome with three genes: x, y, z. I'd like the constraints on
these genes to be:
x = [0, 1.1]
y = (2, 4.5]
z is unconstrained
I understand how to do x, and y:
GARealAlleleSetArray alleles;
alleles.add(0.0, 1.1, GAAllele::INCLUSIVE, GAAllele::INCLUSIVE); // x
alleles.add(-2.0, 4.5, GAAllele::EXCLUSIVE, GAAllele::INCLUSIVE); // y
// Note: GARealGenome takes either a length and allele set, or just an
// allele set array.
//
GARealGenome genome(alleles, objective);
GASteadyStateGA ga(genome);
But how do I leave the 3rd gene unconstrained? In the above code, there are
only 2 genes (I think the length of the genome is determined by the number
of alleles in the GARealAlleleSetArray, which is 2).
I tried adding:
alleles.add( -FLT_MAX, FLT_MAX, GAAllele::EXCLUSIVE, GAAllele::EXCLUSIVE );
but that wreaks havoc; the solutions turn out wrong and the 3rd gene is inf.
Is there a way of leaving the 3rd gene unconstrained?
Thanks!
Pete
