maxim Method (String)

Note: This API is now obsolete.

Maximize a problem. This method selects and starts the Xpress-Optimizer solution algorithm. The characters indicating the algorithm choice may be combined where it makes sense, e.g. "dg". If the matrix loaded in Xpress-Optimizer does not correspond to the current problem definition it is regenerated automatically prior to the start of the algorithm. Before solving a problem, the objective function must be selected with setObj(). Note that if you use an incomplete global search you should finish your program with a call to the Xpress-Optimizer method XPRSprob.InitGlobal() (see Xpress-Optimizer manual for details) in order to remove all search tree information that has been stored. Otherwise you may not be able to re-run your program.

Parameters

alg

Type:  SystemString
The string choice of solution algorithm. Possible values are:

• "p" - Use primal simplex algorithm.
• "d" - Use dual simplex algorithm.
• "b" - Use Newton-Barrier algorithm.
• "l" - Only solve the (relaxed) linear problem.
• "g" - Solve the global (MIP) problem.
• "" - No parameter, use the default setting (LP only).

Return Value

Type:  Int32
0 on success, 1 otherwise.
