This is the support page of a python binding to the Coin library and more precisely to its Osi part. It should allows people to define and solve Lp/Mip problems in Python using the Lp/Mip solvers supported by the Coin library. Currently the binary version available for download allows the user to use the Clp and Vol solvers directly and the Glpk and Cplex solvers if the corresponding dlls are present. The code should be easy to extend to the other Coin supported solvers (Osl, XPress, ...) I plan in the future to get access to such solvers in order to allow the users to use these solvers too.
I develop the code under win32 but I'am interested making it working for other platforms. If anyone make this code compile on one of these other platforms I will be very interested modifying my code and building instructions according to their experiences.
23 december 2002 The first release of the binding of the Coin library for Python is available for download.
