Description Pedro F. Giffuni 2011-06-25 00:50:09 UTC 
CoinMP is a C library that supports functionality from three different
COIN-OR (Optimization) projects:

- CLP (Coin LP)
- CBC (Coin Branch-and-Cut)
- CGL (Cut Generation Library)

It also includes the clp and cbc binaries so it conflicts with math/clp
(which is a newer version and uses the fortran solvers so is not obsolete).

I left a knob that builds the glpk solver too, unfortunately our math/glpk
port removed the required headers so this option won't build out of the box.

This package will likely replace lp_solve in the new Apache OpenOffice.org
project.

Why not just add ports for cbc and cgl, instead of this bundle port?
Does it have some added functionality beyond the components listed
above?

I added them, but then removed them, because no other in-tree ports
that I knew of needed anything other than glpk.h, demon@ didn't seem
to care, and it made maintaining the pkg-plist easier.  What
additional headers are needed by CoinMP?

I'll take it.

Yes, in addition to CLP, CBC, CGL, and their cosrrespoding OSI
interface, there's a C library called CoinMP, that will be used
in OpenOffice's calc.

Actually, I added them for CLP and we had a knob to use them there but
I never understood how to make any use of it. I eventually got tired
of having port bumps everytime GLPK was updated and killed the knob.
I recall pretty much every header that you removed was required, but
the thing with COIN is that it's mostly libraries so you usually only
need this if you are a programmer and want to use the specific functionality in OSI.

Pedro.
