Initializing help system before first use

Introduction

Topics covered in this chapter:


The mminsight Mosel module and package implement the interface necessary for a model to operate as part of an Xpress Insight application. The Xpress Insight Developer Guide explains how Xpress Insight interacts with the Mosel model and documents the requirements that the model needs to meet. The mminsight module provides support for a number of Xpress Insight features:

  • Capturing model inputs, during a scenario 'load' action
  • Populating model data-structures from an Xpress Insight scenario, during a scenario 'run' action
  • Capturing model results, during a scenario 'run' action
  • Accessing and updating scenario/app attachments
  • Reading data from other Xpress Insight scenarios

This manual provides a detailed reference for each function.

A model that uses mminsight can also be run independently of Xpress Insight (from Xpress Workbench or the Mosel command line) if required for debugging purposes. The Developer Guide documents how to achieve this.

Backwards Compatibility

Models compiled against the current version of Xpress Insight cannot be used with earlier versions of Xpress Insight or the mminsight module. Attempting to do so will result in errors when trying to load or run a scenario.

Forwards Compatibility

It is intended that models compiled against the current version of Xpress Insight will be compatible with future versions without requiring a recompilation; please review the release notes before upgrading your Xpress Insight installation for additional information.
