Hi,

I'm using IDE OPL 12.4 to solve a problem,but I want to export a .lp file for it without solving the problem, and execute the .lp file with CPLEX directly.
I followed the instructions provided in this forum :
--You could set both following parameters to export your model without solving:
1. turn off the presolve
--To turn off presolve:
add a settings file to your run configuration (.ops file)
open the settings file and under "Mathematical Programming > Preprocessing", set "limit on the number of presolve passes made" to 0
2. set a time limit of 0

Also, I add the limits in my .mod file: (I tried to put this limit at the beginning or at the end of my .mod file)
execute CPX_PARAM {
cplex.preind = 0; // turns presolve off
cplex.itLim = 0; // sets Simplex maximum iteration limit to 0
}

After configuring these, I run the mod file. It export .lp file, but it also solve the problem and gives me the solution. What's the problem???
I don't want opl to solve the problem, since it takes too much time. I only need the exported .lp file.

Thank you for your help

By default, OPL will always try to solve the model.
So to do what you want, you need to use scripting with a main block (look at the examples). In this main block, just generate the model and call cplex.exportModel("file.lp").
