The MOSEK command line tool Version 7.0 (Revision 141)

3.6. CONSTRAINT AND VARIABLE NAMES 13
below:
ampl: model diet.mod;
ampl: data diet.dat;
ampl: option solver mosek;
ampl: option mosek options
ampl? ’msk ipar optimizer = msk optimizer primal simplex \
ampl? msk ipar sim max iterations = 100000’;
ampl: solve;
In the example above a string called mosek options is created which contains the parameter settings.
Each parameter setting has the format
parameter name = value
where ”parameter name” can be any valid MOSEK parameter name. See Appendix 9 for a description
of all valid MOSEK parameters.
An alternative way of specifying the options is
ampl: option mosek options
ampl? ’msk ipar optimizer = msk optimizer primal simplex’
ampl? ’ msk ipar sim max iterations = 100000’;
New options can also be appended to an existing option string as shown below
ampl: option mosek options $mosek options
ampl? ’ msk ipar sim print freq = 0 msk ipar sim max iterations = 1000’;
The expression $mosek options expands to the current value of the option. Line two in the example
appends an additional value msk ipar sim max iterations to the option string.
3.5.2 Options
3.5.2.1 outlev
MOSEK also recognizes the outlev option which controls the amount of printed output. 0 means no
printed output and a higher value means more printed output. An example of setting outlev is as
follows:
ampl: option mosek options ’outlev=2’;
3.5.2.2 wantsol
MOSEK recognize the option wantsol. We refer the reader to the AMPL manual [1] for details about
this option.
3.6 Constraint and variable names
AMPL assigns meaningfull names to all the constraints and variables. Since MOSEK uses item names
in error and log messages, it may be useful to pass the AMPL names to MOSEK.
