Hi,

do you know if CPLEX 10.0 supports Visual C++ 2003?

CPLEX 10.0 does support Visual C++ 2003.

It's not true that any C++ compiler can be used with CPLEX.

It is possible other C/C++ compilers can be used with the Callable Library API of CPLEX (the C API) since the Callalble Library is provided as a DLL for Windows.  Using the Concert C++ API, due to C++ name mangling and other considerations, requires compilers which are compatible with one of the of VC++ 2003/2005/2008, which are supported by CPLEX.  I don't know if there are such compilers.

Hi all,
I am not quiet sure if CPLEX 9 does work with VC++ 2005(version 8). I took the Blend example under stat_mta and copied into another file.cpp and created another project, then I could compile the file as shown below that it does not show any error. But when I build the project, 32 errors are shown in the second message below.  In deed, I followed the information or read me file which explains how to configure this with the VC++; but it doesn’t take in consideration the new VC++ 2005 that it has not ST for example. Also when I tried to compile one example under Stat_sta with the Single threaded configuration, it ask for the library libc.lib, which was removed in VC++ 2005.
To this end, I would be grateful to you if you can can help me in finding a solution to this problem.

CPLEX 9 does not work with VC++ 8, only VC++ 7.1 and MSVC6. VC++ 8 did not exist when CPLEX 9 was released.

The errors you are seeing are due to the incompatibility between VC++ 8 and VC++ 7.1 (or MSVC6 if that is the version of the project file you started with); the concert.lib and ilocplex.lib built with VC++ 7.1 can not be used with object files built with VC++ 8.
