[Coin-ipopt] installation problem in ipopt

[Stefan Vigerske]

Hi,

>     I  download the ipopt and third party components.  I want to install the ipopt using Visual Studio  on Windows, so I have installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 .NET , Microsoft Platform SDK and the Intel Visual Fortran Compier 9.0 firstly. I also set the compiling environment regarding to the the Readme  file  in the folder VisualStudio_dotNET.  I found that there are seven projects in the folder VisualStudio_dotNET.  According to the project dependencies in the Visual Studio, I think the build order of the seven projects should be  hs071_f, ipopt,  FortranLinAlg ,  ScalableProblems, hs071_cpp, hs071_c, CppExample,   so I decide to build the hs071_f firstly. However, I encunter the following  errors when building the hs071_f ( a Fortran Project):

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think that you need hs071_f, it should be
just an example file. At least, I didn't need it.
First, you might need FortranLinAlg, if this compiles the Lapack, Blas,
and HSL code. Then you should try to compile the Ipopt library.

Some of the unresolved symbols (_IP...) are there because there is no
ipopt library in the linking path.
