cplexmiqcp no feasible solution with feasible start point

    Dear all,

    I am using cplexmiqcp in Matlab.
    I first compute a feasible solution of the MIP (which I check and verifies all the constraints).
    I then call cplexmiqcp giving this point as initial guess (x0) in the call.
    If I set 'MaxTime'=0.1 it may return "-5 time limit exceeded, no integer solution" even if x0 is feasible (it checked something like 30 solutions but not the initial guess).

    It seems the initial point is ignored. Is there a way to start the solver from the initial (and feasible) point and refine it with time?

    Thank you for you time.
    Best,

    Javier

    There used to be a bug in the toolbox functions that effectively ignored starting solutions :-(
