set_maxim

Set objective function to maximize.

void set_maxim(lprec *lp);

Return Value

set_maxim has no return value.

Parameters

lp

Pointer to previously created lp model. See return value of make_lp, copy_lp, read_lp, read_LP, read_mps, read_freemps, read_MPS, read_freeMPS, read_XLI

Remarks

The set_maxim function sets the objective direction to maximize. The default of lp_solve is to minimize, except for read_lp, read_LP where the default is to maximize.

Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "lp_lib.h"
int main(void)
{
 lprec *lp;
 /* Create a new LP model */
 lp = make_lp(0, 0);
 if(lp == NULL) {
 fprintf(stderr, "Unable to create new LP model\n");
 return(1);
 }
 set_maxim(lp);
 delete_lp(lp);
 return(0);
}
