I have done preliminary testing of mipStart using standalone cbc.
It looks promising. <br>
However, our real problems have a bunch of SOS2 constraints. I
checked but it does not<br>
seems that cbc v2.9.0 can import/read such files yet, am I
correct? The other<br>
thing I was wondering is that whether mipStart would work with
SOS2 constraints?<br>
Say we have a lp problem with binary variables and some SOS2
constraints, would<br>
mipStart work by, again, just providing the values of the binary
variables, and <br>
leaving the variables in the SOS2 constraints to be decided?<br>
<br>
Also, is there some doc/pub about Haroldo implementation/method?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance<br>
<br>
Alexis<br>

Thanks John.
I am actually using the API. I found this example
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://projects.coin-or.org/Cbc/browser/trunk/Cbc/examples/hotstart.cpp">https://projects.coin-or.org/Cbc/browser/trunk/Cbc/examples/hotstart.cpp</a>
I will try it. Is the example you were referring to?

Subject: [Cbc] Hot Start for MIP
Message-ID: <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:5550E1D7.8030902@softree.com"><5550E1D7.8030902@softree.com></a>

I have got a large MIP to solve for which I would like to implement a
hot start strategy.
My understanding is that I should use the function
CbcModel::setHotstartSolution(const double *solution, const int
*priorities=NULL),
where solution assumes the same ''order'' of variables as defined for
the model itself. I am not so sure to understand the meaning of
the pointer priorities though. The hotstart solution I intend to give is
an actual feasible solution to the MIP.
Am I on the right track?
Thanks in advance for the help
