Hi,

I was wondering which is the appropriate CPLEX build for a 64-bit Windows 7 system that is running CygWin.

Thank you,

32bits or 64bits CPLEX on windows are OK if you want to run cplex.exe on cygwin.

John,

Thanks for your answer.

By "cplex.exe" do you refer to all interfaces or just the Simplex Optimizer?

I am mainly interested in porting C API and Concert code.

Thanks,

Chris

Just a note...

I tried compiling my application under Cygwin.
I tried using both the x86-64_debian and x64_windows_vs2010 versions...

I have the following compilation error in both cases:

"ilosys.h: fatal error: generic.h: No such file or directory"

In ilosys.h, there is a reference to a file called "generic.h", which does not exist in the distribution.
The file "generic.h" is referenced since none of the following 4 flags (ILO_MSVC, ILO_LINUX, ILO_APPLE, ILO_HP11) is defined in Cygwin.

Note that my application compiles well in a Linux based system.

Hope someone here could help get to the bottom of this...

Thanks

I am not exactly sure but I think what you are trying to do is not officially supported. Do things work if you just define ILO_MSVC or ILO_LINUX?
