GRBstartenv
| int | GRBstartenv ( | GRBenv | *env ) |
Start an empty environment. This routine starts an empty environment created by GRBemptyenv. If the environment has already been started, this routine will do nothing.
This routine will also populate several parameters (ComputeServer, TokenServer, ServerPassword, etc.) from your gurobi.lic file. This routine will also check the current working directory for a file named gurobi.env, and it will attempt to read parameter settings from this file if it exists. The file should be in PRM format (briefly, each line should contain a parameter name, followed by the desired value for that parameter).. After that, it will apply all paramter changes specified by the user prior to this call. Note that this might overwrite parameters set in the license file, or in the gurobi.env file, if present.
After all these changes are performed, the code will actually activate the environment, and make it ready to work with models.
In general, you should aim to create a single Gurobi environment in your program, even if you plan to work with multiple models. Reusing one environment is much more efficient than creating and destroying multiple environments.
Return value:
A non-zero return value indicates that there was a problem starting the environment. Refer to the Error Code table for a list of possible return values.
Arguments:
env: The empty environment to start.
