Dear Simon,<br>
<br>
if you really don't want to leave the comfort of your Windows 10
environment, I can recommend WSL:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10</a><br>
This allows to just call for example `sudo apt-get install zlib`. I
prefer this over MSYS/Cygwin/MinGW, although your mileage may vary.<br>
In general though, Linux will provide the best experience concerning
installation with all the third party dependencies.<br>
Please understand that we cannot give you in-depth instructions on
how to setup your system.<br>
<br>
The information on the slides you found is quite outdated,
unfortunately. We will try to provide a better Windows package in
the future that also contains ZIMPL. Sorry about that.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
Matthias<br>

<div dir="ltr">Dear ZIB team,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'd like to use the SCIP optimisation suite to solve
MINLIP problems (and probably some LPs), and would like it
to be linked to the defaults SoPlex and ZIMPL.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm using a win64 machine with Windows 10. I'm struggling
to fully understand how to best do the installation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The binary that's available for download doesn't have
ZIMPL integrated it seems.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After a while I found Matthias' slide set <a
href="https://scip.zib.de/workshop2014/scip_install.pdf"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://scip.zib.de/workshop2014/scip_install.pdf</a>
and thought maybe the next easiest option would be to
install it under cygwin (following the slide set).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I understand I can select packages in the cygwin setup -
is that where I'm supposed to get zlib, gmp, readline, and
pcre? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also need Ipopt, which I downloaded as a tar-ball from
the coin-or website, and then tried to install under cygwin.
However, for the installtion to work I first need things
like BLAS, ASL..</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm not a computer scientist and I found this to be very
confusing and time consuming to read in various forums and
collect bits and pieces of information on how to put the
software together. Given that I'm still far from installing
the optimisation suite, and don't know how many dependencies
I'm yet to encounter, I thought I'd pause and ask for your
advice.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Am I following the straightforward path to obtain the
software configuration I want? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. Is there a more detailed description of how to install
the defaults on my operating system? Apologies if I missed
it.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>3. Could you please help me understand which
packages/libraries I need for what, and how to install them?
Do I select them in cygwin, or download source code (to
which directory?), and run it from cygwin with "make
install"?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for your help!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All the best,</div>
<div>Simon</div>
