Comment:

 Hi Paolo,

 I myself don't have access to MA57, so I haven't tried this, nor do I know
 of anybody who has tried to compile Ipopt with MA57 and Metis.

 The Makefiles in {{{ThirdParty/HSL}}} will not work in this case, since
 they don't know about Metis.  However, you can just compile a library with
 MA57 and Metis separately, independent of Ipopt, and then tell the Ipopt
 {{{configure}}} script how it can link with the MA57/Metis library you
 created.  This is the purpose of the {{{--with-hsl}}} flag for
 {{{configure}}}.  Please have a look at the second item in the "Detailed
 Installation Information" appendix in the Ipopt documentation (currently,
 the online link for this topic is http://www.coin-
 or.org/Ipopt/documentation/node183.html).

 I hope this helps,

 Andreas
