support for date in OPL

Manipulating Date in OPL is tedious. One needs to load them as string, then use script to convert them in date and access fields of this script object (month / year ...). Furthermore, it is not even possible to create a Date from a string in scrip...

In the IDE (CPLEX studio), with a solve on DOcplexCloud is not display the same way as a local solve.That create lots of extra work to explore the input data, the constraint expressed and the result.

Function to Add tuple to a set in OPL not only in OPLscript

Have an OPL fucntion to add tuple to a set.It will avoid to use OPL script to populate them whish is slow and increase complexity of modeling.A work around that I use it to create identical Set of tuple in OPL and use OPLscript to just copy them i...

Information callback procedure for Benders algorithm

For MIP problems using branch-and-bound the CPLEX API offers the info or MIP callback procedure which can be used to retrieve information during a MIP search. For the Benders algorithm these callback procedures do not work (CPLEX 12.7 throws an er...

Implement OPL as a DSL in F#

I think that it can be valuable to offer OPL as a DSL in .NET. This can be an easy (cheap) way to combine the best of OPL and of the Cplex .NET API in one language. This way OPL remain for the definition of the problem but the control flow will be...

"If and only if" for indicator-constraints in MATLAB API

We use the CPLEX for MATLAB API to solve a MILP. In our case the bottleneck of the API is the limited functionality of indicator constraints. Whereas in OPL and the Java API an "if and only if" statement is possible, this functionality is missing ...

Ability to solve Python/docplex model in CPLEX Enterprise Server

This request is actually for CPLEX Enterprise Server, not CPLEX Optimization Studio, but CES was not an option in the list of products. Currently CES is only able to solve models implemented in OPL. We would like to be able to submit and solve app...

Sequence Object "end of range" Alert

We recently had a Production application fail because a Db2 sequence object reached the end of its range unexpectedly. This caused our web users to be unable to logon for a short period of time. DBAs are implementing external tooling to monitor se...
