[Ipopt] Wrapping two functions together in Ipopt API

[Wijekoon, Manusha]

You can always share results of one calculation with others by using class variables (if you are using a class) or global variables.

Subject: [Ipopt] Wrapping two functions together in Ipopt API


I'm a beginner in Ipopt as well as C++.

in Ipopt, I've to write implementations of the following functions, in a class.

virtual bool eval_f(Index n, const Number* x, bool new_x, Number& obj_value);

virtual bool eval_grad_f(Index n, const Number* x, bool new_x, Number* grad_f);

In my problem, eval_grad_f share many calculations and results with eval_f. ( For example, without obj_value I cannot calculate grad_f). If the both functions were in a single wrapped function, that would have been much easy for me. I want to reuse results and computation of eval_f in the eval_grad_fun. Please suggest an efficient way to do this.
