<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black'>It doesn&#8217;t seem possible to either
initialize or change the value of dual variables during the optimization in the
C++ implementation of IPOPT.&nbsp; Seems all the callbacks have a <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>const</span></i> in the signature, and the code does
not seem to provide hooks to influence the iterations between evaluations. &nbsp;Is
this correct?&nbsp; Are there any workarounds you can suggest?</span></font></p>
