Produce log during OPL Extract phase similar to Solve Engine Log

Many OPL real-world optimisations spend a large proportion of the overall solve time performing extraction/generation and there is no log of what is happening during this time. There should be a log produced during Extract similar to the Engine Log produced during the Solve phase.


The Extract log would enable users to modify their OPL to make it more efficient.

    Surely IBM must have this functionality already implemented (maybe in a rough form) under the hood? It is NORMAL for developers to have some level of logging of internal processes so that they know what they have implemented is working correctly and so they can debug it (when things go wrong) and tune it.
