[Os-project-managers] More schema issues

[Horand Gassmann]

Hi guys,

I just implemented the varType etc. attributes and am editing the  
parserTest files. In parserTest.osol I ran into further problems. In  
the OSoL schema the values in the <var>, <con> and <obj> elements are  
attributes (which is fine), but there are also "lbValue" and "ubValue"  
attributes to deal with. We do not have a way to attach a type to those.

I cannot remember the reason why we chose to allow

<other numberOfVar="1" name="slack" solver="mySolver"  
description="minimal distance from the bounds>
<var lbValue="0.001" ubValue="0.002/>
</other>

instead of

<other numberOfVar="1" name="lSlack" solver="mySolver"  
description="minimal distance from the lower bound>
<var value="0.001"/>
</other>
<other numberOfVar="1" name="uSlack" solver="mySolver"  
description="minimal distance from the upper bound>
<var value="0.001"/>
</other>

True, it is more compact, but do I now need to add further attributes  
"lbValueType" and "ubValueType"?

Cheers

gus
