InputFile

Import data into a model before beginning optimization
Type: string
Default value: ""

Specifies the name of a file that will be read before beginning a command-line optimization run. This parameter can be used to input a MIP start (a .mst or .sol file), MIP hints (a .hnt file), a simplex basis (a .bas file), or a set of parameter settings (a .prm file) from the Gurobi command line. The suffix may optionally be followed by .zip, .gz, bz2, or .7z if the input files are compressed.

Note: Command-line only
