Possible command line parameters to customize

Top  Previous  Next

A complete list of parameters is in the chapter on Command Line Parameters.  Perhaps the most desirable options to consider for run customization are

 

CharsetCauses use of extended (international) character set.
CNSName to be used for default CNS solver.
DformatDate format to use in output.
DNLPName to be used for default DNLP solver.
ErrmsgControls position of error messages in echo print and through use of Errmsg=1 allows one to reposition error messages to just after error marking.
InputdirInput search paths. Can include several directories separated by OS specific symbols.
Inputdir1 to 40Input search path names to be used.  Default is no search path.
LibincdirLibrary include directory. Used to complete a filename for $Libinclude.
LimcolInclude the first n cases for each named variable in the LST file.
LimrowInclude the first n cases for each named equation in the LST file.
LogoptionControls destination for the Log file, used with setting of 2 to permit Unix/Linux jobs to operate in background.
LPName to be used for default LP solver.
MCPName to be used for default MCP solver.
MINLPName to be used for default MINLP solver.
MIPName to be used for default MIP solver.
MPECName to be used for default MPEC solver.
NLPName to be used for default NLP solver.
OptdirLocation to look for solver option files.
OptfileDefault value for model.optfile, can be set to 1 if one always wants GAMS to look for option file.
PagesizePage size. If less than 30 it will be reset to the default of 60.
PagewidthPrint width. This value should be between 72 and 32767.
ProfileCauses GAMS to include information on statement execution time and memory use in LST file allowing one to find slow or large memory using statements.
PsPage size. If less than 30 it will be reset to the default of 60.
PutdirDefault directory where put files will be saved. If not specified, it will be set to the work directory.
PwPrint width. This value should be between 72 and 32767.
RMINLPName to be used for default RMINLP solver.
RMIPName to be used for default RMIP solver.
SavepointSave a point GDX file with the current solution.
TformatTime format.

 

I will not describe these fully here, as the GAMS Command Line Parameters chapter does an extensive job.
