Re: [eclipse-clp-users] Scheduling using the C++ interface to ECLiPSe

Hi there,

I recently had a similar task to do. After a help from Joachem I managed to
finally handle things with C. Found it easier than the C++ interface and actually
I just needed a simple interfacing.

I am sending a sample C and eclipse code for the magic square.

I compiled it in .NET so if you use the same environment remember to use Release
version for the executable otherwise it keeps asking for some .dlls ..
And also the first directives in the .C are necessary if not in unix..

If someone has a similar thing in C++ I would like to see it as well..

Good luck,

Christos

Hi!

I have a classical scheduling problem (with a nonlinear cost function) where 
the task is to schedule a number of jobs with given resource demands 
(execution times) on one or several processors (resources). The type of 
constraints are precedence constraints and resource constraints. Due to 
legacy constraints, I have to implement this in C++ using the C++ ECLiPSe 
interface. I have set up the environment and I'm currently trying to 
understand the C++ interface. There are some small examples in the ECLiPSe 
installation, but many of them don't work.

Does anyone have any example code that solves a similar problem using
 ECLiPSe 
with the C++ interface? Other comments are
 appreciated.

Thanks,
/Soheil
