[Coin-ipopt] Lagrange Multipliers in AMPL

Dear Karsten,

I just changed the AMPL interface, so that the Lagrangian multipliers are
now passed back to AMPL.  You can get the corrected source file

COIN/Ipopt/IPOPT/AMPL_interface/ipoptAMPL.c

via CVS, or download it directly from the web:

http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/cvs/coin/COIN/Ipopt/IPOPT/AMPL_interface/ipoptAMPL.c?rev=1.4

or wait until is it included in tomorrows tarball.

With this, the multiplier information should be accessible to you in the
way outlined in your message.

I hope this helps,

Andreas
