I am doing is nothing but including all the needed CBC, OSI and CGL header file and linking all the necessary library in order to use the branchAnbBound() method of the CbcModel class. However I would like to replicate exactly the performance of the stand-alone
executable version of cbc that I have used on the same instances as AMPL solver. Anyone knows the setting of the stand-alone executable version of cbc? I'am referring to the default options of presolve/preprocess, heuristics and cuts in the stand-alone version.

<span style="font-size:12pt;" id="divtagdefaultwrapper">branchAnbBound() </span></font>method (It si not so clear from the examples and from the user guide). It si possible to have a simple example?</p>
