GLPK 4.61 Release Information
*****************************

Release date: January 22, 2017

GLPK (GNU Linear Programming Kit) is intended for solving large-scale
linear programming (LP), mixed integer linear programming (MIP), and
other related problems. It is a set of routines written in ANSI C89 and
organized as a callable library.

        In this release:

        An option was added to build a re-entrant version of the
        package suitable for running in a multi-threaded environment.
        This option is enabled by default on configuring the package
        if the compiler used supports the thread local storage class
        specifier (e.g. _Thread_local or __thread). Thanks to
        David Monniaux <address@hidden> for suggestion and
        Chris Matrakidis <address@hidden> for configure.ac patch.

        A re-entrant version of the package allows running multiple
        independent instances of glpk in different threads of a multi-
        threaded application. Note that glpk is not thread-safe by
        design, so if the application calls glpk routines from multiple
        threads, no thread may access glpk program objects (glp_prob,
        glp_tree, etc.) created by other threads; besides, each thread
        before termination should call the API routine glp_free_env to
        prevent memory leak.

        A DLL support was added. Thanks to Heinrich Schuchardt
        <address@hidden> for contribution.

        Some changes were made to allow compiling the package using
        stdcall calling convention (this is needed only for compiling
        GLPK with MSVC to run under MS Windows).
