RE: [Help-glpk] Using "all cuts"

[Meketon, Marc]

Thank you for the clarification.  I'll keep with glp_intopt.

Do you or anyone out there have a working example of using the call back 
function that uses specialized branching and backtracking choices?

Lpx_intopt is a deprecated routine; eventually it will be replaced by
glp_intopt. Currently glp_intopt is unable to generate cover and clique
cuts, because this requires the mip preprocessor, which is still not
implemented for glp_intopt.
