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...

Add TDNoOverlap constraint type to CP Optimizer

The TDNoOverlap constraint type is presented in chapter 7 of the Ph.D. thesis "A Constraint Programming Approach for the Time Dependent Traveling Salesman Problem", by Penelope Aguiar-Melgarejo https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01514369/documen...

a new parameter to control to force MIPStart if the variables are feasible

CPLEX choose to use MIPStart or not accoring to the heuristic. But sometimes the user think MIPStart values as particular variables is the best way to solve the problem. So we’d like to request a new parameter to control to force MIPStart if the v...

DOC-like row filters for table views in DO

Have the ability to create a set of filters on a table view that:a. As a set of filters that each can be added, edited and removed.b. Are persistent, i.e. do not disappear when switching views. c. Can be enabled/disabledd. Include logic like `cont...

Constraint filtering in the problem browser

when you review the expression of the constraint from the problem browser, to see what constraint has been written from your code.the view allows to filter to some variables, order the display can be changed and display only the constraint that ar...

Adding a warning when a data source are not populate in a model

Once data elements are read once, adding a new data source has no effect. A warning that tells that adding a new data source after had no effect will help to debug. Here is an example. The observe problem was that no data where send to the databas...

Create IloAddable::setObject() in Java API

In the C++ API, there is the method IloExtractable::setObject()In the Java API, there is no equivalent on IloAddable. This is needed because it is useful to create a new IloIntVar from cplex.intVar(), and then associate a Java object to that varia...
