25 * We need this interface because there are too many Choice Generators in JPF if we
26 * will try to create CG trying to match CG constructors parameters and Values array
27 * we will have following problems:
28 * <li> Ambiguity with some constructors
29 * <li> User would unable to create some kind of CG (some requires Config for example)
30 * <li> User would need to specify unique ids in JSON
