LpBase::Constr Class Reference

Detailed Description

This data stucture represents a linear constraint in the LP. Basically it is a linear expression with a lower or an upper bound (or both). These parts of the constraint can be obtained by the member functions expr(), lowerBound() and upperBound(), respectively. There are two ways to construct a constraint.

• You can set the linear expression and the bounds directly by the functions above.
• The operators <=, == and >= are defined between expressions, or even between constraints whenever it makes sense. Therefore if e and f are linear expressions and s and t are numbers, then the followings are valid expressions and thus they can be used directly e.g. in addRow() whenever it makes sense.

           e<=s
           e<=f
           e==f
           s<=e<=t
           e>=t
  

  Warning:

  The validity of a constraint is checked only at run time, so e.g. addRow(x[1]<=x[2]<=5) will compile, but will fail an assertion.
