OPL function to assign a initial value or fix te value to a variable

The only way to do a warm start is by using OPL script.it should be possible in the variable declaration to give a start value. the same way if you want to fix a variable to a value you need to 2 lines of code to fix the upper and lower bounds... ...

Dantzig-Wolf-decomposition with CPLEX

Extend the CPLEX-API to let reformulate a problem by CPLEX, notably a problem - which could be solved efficiently by a DW-decomposition. It should be reformulated by CPLEX to a problem (its dual) which could be solved by CPLEX's benders algorithm....

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...

ODBCUpdate function needed

On the recent versions of cplex we have functions like ODBCRead and ODBCPublish for data management on Data bases engines, but it is also necessary to have a function like ODBCUpdate which corresponds to the old one DBUpdate function which allows ...

CPLEX: Make adding mulitple objectives consistent with adding one objective

In the Java API for CPLEX (presumably similar in other APIs), it is possible to create an objective and add it to a model in one function call, using overloads of IloCplexModeler.addMinimize() and .addMaximize() that take an IloNumExpr argument. D...

Add doopl in the CPLEX distribution on Watson Studio

relying on docplex python API got much easier since docplex was included in the CPLEX product. doopl which is a python package that allows to call OPL model from python code can be download from https://pypi.org/project/doopl/ but having doopl in ...

Enhance .NET API for maps

When attempting to use the reflection mechanism of OPL CPLEX API under .NET (version 12.9 but same problem seen in documentation of latest version), I stumble upon an error on my first implementation of a missing method "NbDim" for the map class "...

Document that mipgap and absmipgap are no pure termination criteria but can impact the path Cplex takes in B&C

As discussed in support case TS007960403, Cplex parameters mipgap and absmipgap can impact the path Cplex takes during Branch and Cut. I suggest to document this because from the description of the parameters one can expect that these are pure te...
