LPSolve IDE

The LPSolve IDE (Integrated Development Interface) is a very user friendly Windows interface to the lpsolve API. All functionality of lpsolve can be accessed via a graphical and very user friendly application.

Many thanks to Henri Gourvest for making this nice interface to lpsolve and making it available to the community.

Here is a list of some of the features of the IDE:

Everything is graphical and mouse controled
Enter your lp model in all supported formats and even via an XLI interface (See External Language Interfaces)
Convert your lp model from any supported format to another supported format and even via an XLI interface (See External Language Interfaces)
Very user friendly editor to enter/change the model with syntax highlight.
Syntax checking of the model
Solve the model
See the results in grids
Control every possible lpsolve option (tolerances, presolve, scaling, ...)

Export model to HTML, RTF, LaTeX output
Export matrix to CSV, HTML, RTF output

Installation

This program has no setup procedure. It doesn't need one. Just put all files from the archive into a directory and run the exe, that is all. Note however that it needs the lpsolve dll (lpsolve51.dll) to do its job. Four your convenience, a dll is provided with this archive, but it is not guaranteed to be the most recent one. To get the most recent lpsolve dll, download it from the lpsolve yahoo site (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lp_solve/files/Version5.1) It is contained in the lp_solve_5.1_dev.zip archive. Also note that the IDE also puts some messages on the console. This may be changed in the future. When started from a command prompt, the messages are shown in this screen, when started from Windows, a console screen will also be created. If you are looking for a message not shown in the IDE, maybe it is shown on the console window...
