Re: [Help-glpk] Compiling xli_mathprog.dll that supports tables (i.e csv, dbf, sql)

Hi Andrew,

Yes, matrix pattern produced by running mathprog script / model.

Yes, it is easy to compile glpk_x_y.dll using one of batch scripts
provided in glpk/w32 or glpk/w64. However, if you look at one of the
batch *.bat (below) in the xli_mathprog.rar. It includes platform.exe.
I think it is cross platform exe file. I searched platform.exe in the
net and I could not find it.

I think this batch file below need to be revised, but the problem I
don't know how.

Thanks. Noli
