Do I Need Any Extra Software?

Answer»

Unless you want to USE SCIP as a pure CP-Solver (see here), you need an underlying LP-Solver installed and linked to the libraries (see the INSTALL file in the SCIP root directory).

LP-solvers currently supported by SCIP are:

  • SoPlex
  • IBM ILOG CPLEX
  • FICO XPress
  • Gurobi (version at LEAST 7.0.2 required)
  • CLP (interface currently sometimes produces wrong results)
  • Glop, Google OR tools (experimental, LPI contained in OR tools)
  • Mosek
  • QSopt (experimental)

We also provide some precompiled binaries. Besides that, you might need a modeling language like ZIMPL to generate *.MPS or *.lp files. ZIMPL files can also directly be read by SCIP. You can download a package which includes SCIP, SoPlex and ZIMPL here.

If you want to use SCIP for mixed integer nonlinear programming, you might want to use an underlying NLP solver (e.g., Ipopt). SCIP ALREADY comes with the CppAD expression interpreter (e.g., CppAD) as part of the source code.
