Re: How to retrieve intermediate solutions of MIP problems without interrupting the solver?

Hello Yuri !

Looking through the code I can see that the function 
src/draft/glpios03.c::record_solution would be a good candidate to hook 
a callback to do what you'll want, probably we'll also want a way to 
signal to stop searching for more solutions based on the return value of 
the callback.

Cheers !
