[Cgl] Re: [Coin-discuss] generateCpp()

[John J Forrest]

Whom else!

If a cut generator (or heuristic etc) is modified from its default 
constructor and then this is called  a series of lines of code is output 
which changes the default generator to the current state.

I wrote it when feeling in need of light entertainment, however it has a 
serious purpose.  If you use the stand-alone cbc (or any other solver) 
then your commands may change the behavior of the cut generators.  When 
you like the result you add -cpp 1 (other numbers create more output) and 
lo and behold  a driver is created which mimics those actions.

[Coin-discuss] generateCpp()







Who did add the following method to CglCutGenerator.hpp:

// Create C++ lines to get to current state
virtual std::string generateCpp( FILE * fp) {return "";};

This is reimplemented in several (all?) generators and generate
some mysterious C++ code. What is the use of this method? Why is
it there?

Please post answers to the cgl mailing list.
