Hi,<br>
<br>
I have tested cyipopt on a linux machine and was not able to
reproduce the problem. Both examples executed correctly.<br>
<br>
My system's setup:<br>
openSUSE 11.3 64bit running on a VMware<br>
python 2.6.5<br>
cython 0.15<br>
numpy 1.6.1<br>
scipy 0.10b<br>
ipopt 3.10.1 compiled against Blas/Lapback/HSL<br>

<div>Hello,<br>
<br>
I have written a new python wrapper for Ipopt. It is
called cyipopt and <br>
can be downloaded from:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://code.google.com/p/cyipopt/">http://code.google.com/p/cyipopt/</a><br>
<br>
It is similar to pyipopt. Likewise it makes use of the
Ipopt C <br>
interface. But it uses a different calling convention,
more similar to <br>
the Matlab interface. I include two examples under the
folder 'test'. <br>
One is the classic hs071 problem and the other one is a
translation of <br>
the lasso example from the Matlab interface. The
matplotlib package is <br>
needed for running the lasso example.<br>
<br>
Another difference is that it is written using Cython,
which makes it <br>
much easier to develop and maintain. It also enables the
implementation <br>
of some convenience features, e.g. if no jacobian/hessian
structure <br>
callbacks are defined than the jacobian/hessian are
assumed to be dense. <br>
Other convenience examples are:<br>
1) It figures out the number of non zero values by calling
the structure <br>
callbacks.<br>
2) Missing boundaries (on the optimization variables and
constraints) <br>
are set to infinity.<br>
It is also possible to add support for scipy.sparse
matrices if needed.<br>
<br>
I have tested cyipopt on Win 7 32/64 bit. I will be happy
to know if <br>
someone is able to use it on linux machines.<br>

<div>I tried it on Red Hat Linux and :</div>

<div>1. I had to edit the setup.py file to make the
installation work. Here are the parts I had to change. Some
of this is specific to my computer, obviously! The one thing
I would recommend is that you use forward slashes for path
delimiters. From <a moz-do-not-send="true"

<div><b>Note that any pathnames (files or directories)
supplied in the setup script
should be written using the Unix convention, i.e.
slash-separated. The
Distutils will take care of converting this
platform-neutral representation into
whatever is appropriate on your current platform
before actually using the
pathname. This makes your setup script portable across
operating systems, which
of course is one of the major goals of the Distutils.

<div>2. The lasso example worked fine. But the other example
