Feasible heuristic solution?

Answered

My apologies if doing this is simple and obvious, but I have been unable to find the appropriate documentation. I have a binary IP that takes a while to solve, and I'm interested instead in getting a quick feasible heuristic solution without taking the extra time to solve to optimality. Is this possible with Gurobi? Thank you.

  Hi Antonio,

  Yes, you can do this by setting the SolutionLimit parameter to 1.

  There are a variety of other ways you can direct Gurobi to terminate early. For example, you can tell Gurobi to terminate after a certain amount of time has elapsed or once a certain objective bound value has been reached. See the "Termination" section here for other ideas.

  I hope this helps!
