Re: [Help-glpk] using lpx_read_model

>In glpk all external names are prefixed by glp_ to keep the namespace
clean. 

this is ok for me, but there was no explanation in the documentation, or
possibly I overlooked it

>There is a VB interface to glpk. Try looking at:

the current application is written in Delphi.

I took a lot of time to write it, so VB is out of question.

(Besides, telling a Delphi-guy to use VB is like to tell a devil to read
the Bible) :)

BTW are you sure that the VB i/f is free ?

The site is interesting, but I could see no "download" button. 

>How then to return a pointer to the LP object? (Imagine that someone
needs to load another model not destroying the previously loaded one.)

so why not to offer 2 functions ? 

One will stay like it is now.

The new one will be used by the guys like me who don't care about the LP
object.

The return code could be something like:

0=success
-100=file not found

etc

I guess it would expand the use of GLPK a lot.
