[Coin-discuss] Building all the OSI interfaces

[Dean Kassmann]

The Osi tarball has Clp, DyLP, and Vol as part of the distribution.

What is the recommended way to build all the Osi interfaces, including
SYMPHONY, Cbc, etc? It seems strange that some of the downstream
libraries are included in the Osi tarball and others aren't.

I'd like to use the --with-cbc-lib configure syntax but that seems to
only work for third-party solvers.

In general, my build system builds each library seperately (Clp,
Ipopt, SYMPHONY, Cbc, DyLP, etc) using autoconf.  They each export the
libs and headers for that library and live in separate parts of the
file system.

I'd like a way to build all the Osi interfaces for the libraries in a
clean fashion using the prior build libraries above. Is that possible?
I'd prefer to somehow tell the Osi configure script what libraries I
am interested in building and where to look for their respective
libraries and headers.

How do others do this?

Cheers,
Dean
