virtual EFindMinReturn MoochoPack::NLPSolverClientInterface::find_min ( )
pure virtual

Find the minimun of the set NLP.

This function returns SOLUTION_FOUND if the NLP has been solved to the desired tolerances. In this case this->track().output_final(...,TERMINATE_TRUE) and this->nlp().report_final_solution(...,true) are called before this function returns..

If the solution is not found, then this->nlp().report_final_solution(...,false) is called and one of the following occurs:

  • If the maximum number of iterations has been exceeded then MAX_ITER_EXCEEDED will be returned. In this case this->track().output_final(...,MAX_ITER_EXCEEDED) is called.
  • If the maximum runtime has been exceeded then MAX_RUN_TIME_EXCEEDED will be returned. In this case this->track().output_final(...,MAX_RUN_TIME_EXCEEDED) is called.
  • An exception is thrown. The client should be prepaired to catch any exceptions thrown from this function. All of the purposefully thrown exceptions are derived from std::exception so the client can check the what() function to see and description of the error. If an exception is thrown then this->track().output_final(...,TERMINATE_FALSE) will be called before this exception is rethrown out of this functiion. If the constraints are found to be infeasible, then the exception InfeasibleConstraints will be thrown. If a line search failure occurs then the exception LineSearchFailure will be thrown. If some test failed then the exception TestFailed will be thrown. Many other exceptions may be thrown but these are the main ones that the SQP algorithms known about and will purposefully generate.

Preconditions:

Postcondtions:

  • Minimum of NLP is found to opt_tol, max_iter was reached or max_run_time reached (throw std::exection)

Implemented in MoochoPack::NLPAlgoContainer.

virtual void MoochoPack::NLPSolverClientInterface::print_algorithm ( std::ostream &  out) const
pure virtual

Prints a description of the algorithm.

Implemented in MoochoPack::NLPAlgoContainer, and MoochoPack::NLPAlgoClientInterface.

virtual void MoochoPack::NLPSolverClientInterface::set_algo_timing ( bool  algo_timing)
pure virtual

Causes algorithm to be timed.

Call with algo_timing == true before calling find_min() to have the algorithm timed.

Implemented in MoochoPack::NLPAlgoContainer.

virtual bool MoochoPack::NLPSolverClientInterface::algo_timing ( ) const
pure virtual
virtual void MoochoPack::NLPSolverClientInterface::print_algorithm_times ( std::ostream &  out) const
