Solver interface |
| 180 |
|
|
- all solvers and integrators are now built as 'external library' DLL/SOs. |
| 181 |
|
|
- new ASCENDSOLVERS environment variable gives additional search path location |

|
|
to permission from Arne Drud to add the 'conopt.h' file to our source code. |
| 190 |
jpye |
1522 |
