[Ipopt] Help

[Andreas Waechter]

Hi Aritra,

I'm not using MSVS much at all, maybe someone else can give you a hint how 
to fix your issue.

However, you might want to know that there are Windows binaries for Ipopt 
available, including a DLL.  Maybe this is already good enough for your 
purposes and you don't need to go through the hassle of compiling Ipopt 
yourself.  The webpage with the binaries is

Regards,

Andreas
