<br class="">
Cmpl does not contain an explicit definition of SOS variables yet. It is necessary to formulate it as a constraint.<br class="">

> I am continuing to explore the issue of piece-wise linear optimization of a 1-dimensional objective function. It is unclear to me if CMPL contains an explicit definition of sos2 variables, or if this needs to be handled separately through definition of constraints. I see the example in the documentation, but that appears to be a 2-dimensional case and the 'sos' look to be constraint labels.<br class="">
