lpsolve distributed files

lpsolve is distributed as several separate archive files. It is most unlikely that you need them all for your purpose. This text describes each archive's contents.

There are two kind of archive files:

  • ziped files (.zip)
  • gziped tar files (.tar.gz)

Ziped files are basically binaries (executables/libraries) for the Windows platform.

gziped tar files can be divided into two categories:

  • binaries (executables, libraries) for the Linux platform.
  • source files that are operating system independent.

Executables
lp_solve_5.5.0.14_IDE_Setup.exe LPSolve IDE (Integrated Development Interface) for Windows.
A user-friendly interface to lpsolve to formulate your model. At this moment only available for Windows.
lp_solve_5.5.0.14_exe.tar.gz lp_solve stand-alone program and bfp/xli libraries for Linux (SuSE, Red Hat).

lp_solve_5.5.0.14_exe.zip lp_solve stand-alone program and bfp/xli libraries for Windows.

Libraries
lp_solve_5.5.0.14_dev.tar.gz lpsolve libraries for Linux (SuSE, Red Hat).
Precompiled libraries if you want to call the lpsolve API from your application.
lp_solve_5.5.0.14_dev.zip lpsolve libraries for Windows.
The dll is needed by many of the examples (VB, C, C#, VB, VB.NET, Delphi, Java, ...) and the libraries and include files are needed when you statically link the lpsolve library with your application.
Documentation
lp_solve_5.5.0.14_doc.tar.gz lp_solve reference guide in HTML format.
For use under Unix/Linux. Can also be used under Windows, however lp_solve_5.5.0.14.chm is handier under that platform.
