COIN-OR CBC Lotsize variable creation and MPS file of formulation

98 views Asked by At

I am working on a Linear Programming Formulation where I require some variables to take values from a predefined set. I was pointed out to use the CBC Lotsize Variable Type (https://github.com/coin-or/Cbc/discussions/516#discussioncomment-3007885). However the CBC C++ libraries use MPS format to be fed into them. I am not finding any way to create MPS file of my formulation. Please suggest the way forward...

The best way is to use Gurobi for modelling the entire formulation. Then save the model in any formal you wish.

Gurobi supports saving the mathematical model in .lp , .mps as well as many other formats...
