Description
This is the second in a sequence of examples that show how to use the external equations (=X=) facility with GAMS/CONOPT. The second model is also simple unconstrained quadratic model and the quadratic function is defined in an external equation. But this time we communicate the data from GAMS via a put file including information on the size of the model. We can now change the data in GAMS without reprogramming the Fortran or C routine. The model is slightly convoluted. We want to be able to solve it for different subsets I of the Domain D.

This is the second in a sequence of examples that show how to
use the external equations (=X=) facility with GAMS/CONOPT.
The second model is also simple unconstrained quadratic model
and the quadratic function is defined in an external equation.
But this time we communicate the data from GAMS via a put file
including information on the size of the model. We can now change
the data in GAMS without reprogramming the Fortran or C routine.
The model is slightly convoluted. We want to be able to solve
it for different subsets I of the Domain D.

set D Domain for the variables / i1*i14 /;
set I(D) Subset for actual optimization;
alias (D,E), (i,j);
Parameter Q(D,D) Covariance Matrix
X0(D) Targets;
Q(D,E) = power(0.5, abs(ord(D)-ord(E)) );
X0(D) = ord(D) / card(D);
display Q, x0;
variable x(D), z;
equation zdef, zdefX;
* Define I for the first solve to hold 7 elements
I(D) = yes$(ord(D) le 7);
* The desired equation, implemented in GAMS, is
zdef.. sum {(i,j),
(x(i)-x0(i)) * Q(i,j) * (x(j)-x0(j)) }
=e= z;
* It is implemented as an external equation as:
zdefX.. sum {D$I(D), ord(D)*x(D) } + (card(I)+1)* z =X= 1;
$onText
See the comments in ex1.gms for further details.
We use D instead of I in the equation since I is now a dynamic
set and we cannot use ord(I).
The size of the set I and the model data is now written to
the file ex2.put using PUT statements. Note that we end with
a putclose statement so the file is closed when we read it
in the external module.

Now define I to hold all 14 elements. This should give rise to an
error since we have only allocated space for 10 elements in the
Fortran and Delphi routine.
The C-version allocates memory dynamically and will work correctly.
