| 4 | Note: It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to ensure that you are entitled to |
|---|
| 5 | download and use this third party package. |

| 8 | Information on the Harwell Subroutine Library (HSL) is available at |
|---|
| 9 | |
|---|
| 10 | http://www.cse.clrc.ac.uk/nag/hsl/ |
|---|
| 11 | |
|---|
| 12 | Some of the required HSL routines are available in the HSL Archive. |
|---|
| 13 | The subroutines in the HSL Archive are free for non-commercial |
|---|
| 14 | purposes (make sure you read the license). |
|---|
| 15 | |
|---|
| 16 | The sparse symmetric linear solvers that you can use in Ipopt are MA57 |
|---|
| 17 | (if you have access for the standard HSL library) and/or MA27 (if you |
|---|
| 18 | have only access to the HSL Archive). In addition, you should get |
|---|
| 19 | MC19 (from the ASL archive). |
|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | |
|---|
| 22 | Instructions on how to download files from the HSL Archive: |
|---|
| 23 | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
|---|
| 24 | |
|---|
| 25 | If you need to download subroutines from the HSL Archive website, this |
|---|
| 26 | is how it goes: |
|---|
| 27 | |
|---|
| 28 | In order to download the HSL Archive subroutines (like ma27 and mc19), |
|---|
| 29 | you need to register at the HSL Archive website |
|---|
| 30 | |
|---|
| 31 | http://hsl.rl.ac.uk/archive/hslarchive.html |
|---|
| 32 | |
|---|
| 33 | After that you can log in and go to the page that lists all the HSL |
|---|
| 34 | Archive packages for download. If you then click on the name of the |
|---|
| 35 | desired routine (like MA27), you get to a download page, where one of |
|---|
| 36 | the button reads "Download Package (comments removed)". |
|---|
| 37 | |
|---|
| 38 | Click on that button (leave the precision choice at default "Double |
|---|
| 39 | Precision"). This brings up a webpage which contains the code for the |
|---|
| 40 | subroutine as text. All you have to do now is to save this page (all |
|---|
| 41 | of it, even if there are more than one subroutines in it) into the a |
|---|
| 42 | file called "ma27ad.f". (If "Save page to..." doesn't work, you can |
|---|
| 43 | copy the content of this page into an editor and save it there.) |
|---|
| 44 | |
|---|
| 45 | Similarly, if you want to get the MC19 routine, do the same steps as above |
|---|
| 46 | and safe the context in a file called "mc19ad.f" . |
|---|
| 47 | |
|---|
| 48 | For neither MA27 or MC19 it is necessary to download any dependencies. |
|---|
| 49 | |
|---|
| 50 | Instructions on where to put the source code: |
|---|
| 51 | --------------------------------------------- |
|---|
| 52 | |
|---|
| 53 | Copy the source files for the required HSL routines into this |
|---|
| 54 | directory before running the `configure' script. The configuration |
|---|
| 55 | script will detect which source files you have and prepare the |
|---|
| 56 | Makefile accordingly. |
|---|
| 57 | |
|---|
| 58 | If you want to use MA57, please make sure that all source code for |
|---|
| 59 | MA57 ***including dependencies*** is in a file called ma57ad.f. |
|---|
| 60 | Currently, it seems that the dependencies are the files: |
|---|
| 61 | |
|---|
| 62 | fd15ad.f |
|---|
| 63 | mc21ad.f |
|---|
| 64 | mc34ad.f |
|---|
| 65 | mc47ad.f |
|---|
| 66 | mc59ad.f |
|---|
| 67 | mc64ad.f |
|---|
| 68 | mc71ad.f |
|---|
