problem.setcbslpstart

problem.setcbslpstart


Purpose
Set a user callback to be called at the start of the SLP optimization
Synopsis

problem.setcbslpstart(callback, object)

retval = callback(my_prob, my_object)


Arguments
callback 
The function to be called at the start of the SLP optimization. callback returns an integer value. If the return value is nonzero, the optimization will not be carried out.
my_prob 
The problem passed to the callback function.
my_object 
The user-defined object passed as object to setcbslpstart.
object 
User-defined object, which can be used for any purpose by the function. object is passed to callback as my_object.
Example
The following example sets up a callback to be executed at the start of the SLP optimization:
Objdata = []
p.setcbslpstart(CBSlpStart, Objdata)
A suitable callback function might resemble this:
def CBSlpStart(object):
  object.append(1)
  return 0
Further information
This callback can be used at the start of the SLP optimization to carry out any housekeeping before the optimization actually starts. Note that a nonzero return code from the callback will terminate the optimization immediately.
