The Solution Object

The Solution object is a property of the parent Model object and contains all the information stored about the solution for the model. The Solution object properties are only available after the model has been solved.

Collections contained by the Solution Object

Constraints

Returns the Constraints collection for the solution.

Variables

Returns the Variables collection for the solution.

Properties for the Solution Object

IsAvailable

Specifies if the solution values are available for retrieval. (Boolean Property - Read/Write)

IsRangesAvailable

Specifies if the solution ranges are available for retrieval. (Boolean Property - Read/Write)

Visual Basic Example:

     Dim MPL As OptiMax
     Dim cpxSolver As Solver
     Dim planModel As Model
     Dim planSol As Solution


     Set MPL = New OptiMax
     Set planModel = MPL.Models.Add("Planning")

     Set planSol = planModel.Solution

     MPL.WorkingDirectory = "c:\mplwin4"
     MPL.Solvers.Add ("c:\mplwin4\CPLEX65.dll")
     Result = planModel.ReadModel("planModel.Name")
     Result = planModel.Solve

     Debug.Print "ResultString     = " & planSol.ResultString
     Debug.Print "ObjectValue      = " & planSol.ObjectValue
     Debug.Print "IsAvailable      = " & CBool(planSol.IsAvailable)

     Debug.Print "IsRangesAvail    = " & CBool(planSol.IsRangesAvailable)
     Debug.Print "Variable Count   = " & planSol.VarCount
     Debug.Print "Constraint Count = " & planSol.ConCount
     Debug.Print "Iteration Count  = " & planSol.IterationCount
