We're excited to share that we are moving forward. We're leaving behind the LocalSolver brand and transitioning to our new identity: Hexaly. This represents a leap forward in our mission to enable every organization to make better decisions faster when faced with operational and strategic challenges.

LocalSolver 11.5

Release notes

  • A method to retrieve the objective gap has been added in each supported language.

  • Introduction of the main mode for LSP. In the main mode, the modeler behaves like an ordinary programming language. In this mode, you are free to do what you want, without being constrained by the formalism of the classic mode: you can load or save models at any time, run several successive optimizations or even use LSP for its scripting language capabilities without running any optimization at all.

  • The LocalSolver module has been added to LSP. In addition to the main mode, many features of the LocalSolver API that were only available through Python, Java, C# and C++ are now exposed in LSP through the localsolver module.

  • The CSV module has been added to the LSP language to parse CSV files.

CSV Module

The LSP language has now a CSV module. It allows you to read CSV content from a file.

For more details about the CSV module, please check out the documentation on CSV module in the standard library.
