Yes, OK. We are asking now. Who wants an GLPK/MathProg IDE?
I do! I am pretty sure that a cross-platform IDE would be very useful
for newer users for getting started, but also for more advanced users,
given a suitable design.
And what OS are you using?
Windows and Linux
I have had some thoughts about this earlier and I believe that the main
feature I would want (which GUSEK doesn't have as fas as I know) is to
run through the API rather than glpsol. This would help in being able to
build the model before solving it and to inspect it. Possibly, it would
even assist in debugging. Also, one could get nicer looking feedback of
the solution process than just outputting the text file. It would also
be possible to add functionality to pause on and/or write newly found
solutions for (M)ILP. Finally, one could inspect the solution
graphically using e.g. a spreadsheet-like display.
Naturally, this is quite a bit of work, but mainly I would like to
encourage you to think in this direction. As the API is used one could
easily replace shard libraries/DLLs when newer versions of GLPK is released.
I wouldn't commit on contributing actually coding, but depending on the
language used, I may contribute functionality I miss and at least
provide good ideas. :-)
With best regards
Oscar
