<div> Hello Alberto<br>
Well, if things went wrong, I suggest to use the default approach:
use derivative checker to detect errors on first and second
derivatives.<br>
To see the outputs from ipopt to java it is necessary to send the
outputs of ipopt to a java stream, through a JTextArea (implements
the intermediate callback function in java) and analyze your
output.<br>
The implementation in Java of this function would be something
like that:<br>
<br>
public boolean intermediate_callback(int AlgorithmMode, int
iter,<br>
double obj_value, double inf_pr, double inf_du, double
mu,<br>
double d_norm, double regularization_size, double
alpha_du,<br>
double alpha_pr, int ls_trials) {<br>
Formatter formatter = new Formatter();<br>
// publish results to the output window<br>
myArea.append(formatter.format("%d \t %1.4e \t %1.2e \t
%1.2e \t" +<br>
"%+1.1f \t %1.2e \t %1.1f \t %1.2e \t %1.2e \t
%d",<br>
iter, obj_value, inf_pr, inf_du, mu, d_norm,
regularization_size, <br>
alpha_du, alpha_pr, ls_trials).toString() + "\n");<br>
return true;<br>
}<br>
<br>
Notice that due to a swing thread issues it may be necessary to
create a swingworker to update this values. I have a jipopt
version that interacts with swing controls and a JTextArea using
swingworkers. I will ask my company if I can share this
implementation with COIN-Ipopt, but you can try the above
solution.<br>
<br>
It is also possible to run your java executable in valgrind (even
if it runs inside jvm) and check for leaks (I know that this work
because Ive done this in the past to debug the first versions of
jipopt). The problem in this case is that, since jipopt.dll was
not built with debug symbols, you may not find exactly where (what
line) exactly the problem is, but it can give you a clue.<br>
<br>

<div dir="ltr">Dear Rafael and Edson,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you very much for your patience and
attention. I was finally and just now able to solve the link
issue. It was because my project is inside another (much
bigger) open-source project, and I needed to add the jipopt
.jar library not to the path of my own project, but to the
path of the whole workbench. Thank you for your advise during
this last month, it was very helpful to find the root of the
problem.</div>
<div>However, now I think I got another problem which I
believe is out of my scope (it seems to occur out of the JVM,
and looks like a memory error).</div>
<div>Please find attached the logs of the 4 failed
executions I have had.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Again, any suggestion would be more than welcome,</div>
<div>Many thanks beforehand,</div>
<div><br>
</div>

Can you send me your version of your project (a zipped

take a look.<br>

Dear Rafael,<br>
<br>
Again, thank you very much for your prompt respond and
attention.<br>
<br>
That's the most strange thing: I am in Eclipse and I
have added the JIpopt library (jipopt-3.2.2.jar) in
the path of my project. Moreover, I am not getting any
compilation error and I can access the Ipopt class
from Eclipse and the imports I do in my Java class
which extends Ipopt works also fine.<br>
<br>
I have also checked the jipopt-3.2.2.jar file and it
has indeed inside the org.coinor.Ipopt class. That is
why I don't know exactly where could be the problem.<br>
<br>
Thank you very much again,<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Alberto<br>
