Re: [Help-glpk] Feature request - option to flush output

[Haroldo Santos]

Exact. Flushing by default.

It sounds like you mean that flushing should be the default behavior, right?  That would also be fine by me.

I think that flushing the output more often should not be an option.
Flushing in this case is cheap and prevents stream readers (another process or a text file) from staying outdated...

Hi, Andrew.

By default, IO streams are not regularly flushed; they are buffered in the computer until 'enough' IO has been done (or until the stream is closed).

I'm piping glpsol through some Python code and this buffering is creating a noticable delay in my processing.  What I'd like is an option that enables explicit flushing of glpsol's output.  For example, after each status line is printed, you might execute:

 flush(stdout)

(or do "cout << flush" in C++).
