Other

  • Added DSDP to the list of supported solvers (#3745)
  • Updated YALMIP migration guide (#3748)

Version 1.22.0 (May 12, 2024)

Added

  • Added Base.complex(r, i) where r and i may be real-valued variables or affine or quadratic expressions (#3734)
  • Added @force_nonlinear for controlling when affine and quadratic expressions are instead parsed as nonlinear expressions. This can be useful for advanced users in a limited set of circumstances. (#3732)
  • Added support for returning the variable coefficients of a vector-valued constraint via normalized_coefficient. In addition, set_normalized_coefficients has been softly deprecated (no warning is thrown and old code will still work for all future 1.X releases of JuMP) in favor of set_normalized_coefficient. This change was made to unify how we get and set variable coefficients. (#3743)

Fixed

  • Fixed missing promote_operation method that resulted in slow code (#3730)
  • Improved performance of getindex for Containers.DenseAxisArray (#3731)
  • Fixed the error message when the legacy nonlinear API is mixed with the new nonlinear API. In particular, we now uniformly throw an error message when unexpected objects occur in nonlinear expressions. (#3741)

Other

Version 1.21.1 (April 11, 2024)

Fixed

  • Fixed behavior of complex-value related functions like real, imag, conj and abs2 when called on GenericNonlinearExpr. This fixes a method error when calling x' where x is an array of nonlinear expressions. As a related consequence, we now always error when creating nonlinear expressions with complex components. Previously, only some constructors were checked for complex expressionns. (#3724)

Other

Version 1.21.0 (March 31, 2024)

Added

  • Added support for matrix inequality constraints with the HermitianPSDCone (#3705)
  • Added batched modification methods for set_normalized_rhs, set_objective_coefficient and set_normalized_coefficient. Using these methods can be more efficient for some solvers (#3716)
  • Added the private constant _CONSTRAINT_LIMIT_FOR_PRINTING, which controls how many constraints are printed to the screen during print(model). The main purpose of this is to prevent large quantities of text being printed when print(model) is accidentally called on a large model. (#3686)

Fixed

  • Changed Containers.SparseAxisArray to use an OrderedDict as the backing data structure. Iterating over the elements in a SparseAxisArray now iterates in the order that the elements were created. Previously, the order was undefined behavior. (#3681)
  • Fixed complex variables for non-Float64 coefficient types (#3691)
  • Fixed LinearAlgebra.hermitan(::AbstractJuMPScalar) (#3693)
  • Fixed multiplying real scalar by Hermitian matrix (#3695)

Fixed

Other

Version 1.15.1 (September 24, 2023)

Fixed

Other

Version 1.15.0 (September 15, 2023)

This is a large minor release because it adds an entirely new data structure and API path for working with nonlinear programs. The previous nonlinear interface remains unchanged and is documented at Nonlinear Modeling (Legacy). The new interface is a treated as a non-breaking feature addition and is documented at Nonlinear Modeling.

Breaking

Although the new nonlinear interface is a feature addition, there are two changes which might be breaking for a very small number of users.

  • The syntax inside JuMP macros is parsed using a different code path, even for linear and quadratic expressions. We made this change to unify how we parse linear, quadratic, and nonlinear expressions. In all cases, the new code returns equivalent expressions, but because of the different order of operations, there are three changes to be aware of when updating:
    • The printed form of the expression may change, for example from x * y to y * x. This can cause tests which test the String representation of a model to fail.
    • Some coefficients may change slightly due to floating point round-off error.
    • Particularly when working with a JuMP extension, you may encounter a MethodError due to a missing or ambiguous method. These errors are due to previously existing bugs that were not triggered by the previous parsing code. If you encounter such an error, please open a GitHub issue.
  • The methods for Base.:^(x::VariableRef, n::Integer) and Base.:^(x::AffExpr, n::Integer) have changed. Previously, these methods supported only n = 0, 1, 2 and they always returned a QuadExpr, even for the case when n = 0 or n = 1. Now:
    • x^0 returns one(T), where T is the value_type of the model (defaults to Float64)
    • x^1 returns x
    • x^2 returns a QuadExpr
    • x^n where !(0 <= n <= 2) returns a NonlinearExpr.
    We made this change to support nonlinear expressions and to align the mathematical definition of the operation with their return type. (Previously, users were surprised that x^1 returned a QuadExpr.) As a consequence of this change, the methods are now not type-stable. This means that the compiler cannot prove that x^2 returns a QuadExpr. If benchmarking shows that this is a performance problem, you can use the type-stable x * x instead of x^2.

Version 1.2.0 (August 16, 2022)

Breaking

This is a large minor release because it significantly refactors the internal code for handling nonlinear programs to use the MathOptInterface.Nonlinear submodule that was introduced in MathOptInterface v1.3.0. As a consequence, the internal datastructure in model.nlp_data has been removed, as has the JuMP._Derivatives submodule. Despite the changes, the public API for nonlinear programming has not changed, and any code that uses only the public API and that worked with v1.1.1 will continue to work with v1.2.0.

Added

  • Added all_constraints(model; include_variable_in_set_constraints) which simplifies returning a list of all constraint indices in the model.
  • Added the ability to delete nonlinear constraints via delete(::Model, ::NonlinearConstraintRef).
  • Added the ability to provide an explicit Hessian for a multivariate user-defined function.
  • Added support for querying the primal value of a nonlinear constraint via value(::NonlinearConstraintRef)

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug in Containers.DenseAxisArray so that it now supports indexing with keys that hash to the same value, even if they are different types, for example, Int32 and Int64.
  • Fixed a bug printing the model when the solver does not support MOI.Name.

Other

  • Added a constraint programming formulation to the Sudoku tutorial.
  • Added newly supported solvers Pajarito, Clarabel, and COPT to the installation table.
  • Fixed a variety of other miscellaneous issues in the documentation.

Version 1.1.1 (June 14, 2022)

Other

  • Fixed problem displaying LaTeX in the documentation
  • Minor updates to the style guide
  • Updated to MOI v1.4.0 in the documentation

Version 1.1.0 (May 25, 2022)

Added

  • Added num_constraints(::Model; count_variable_in_set_constraints) to simplify the process of counting the number of constraints in a model
  • Added VariableRef(::ConstraintRef) for querying the variable associated with a bound or integrality constraint.
  • Added set_normalized_coefficients for modifying the variable coefficients of a vector-valued constraint.
  • Added set_string_names_on_creation to disable creating String names for variables and constraints. This can improve performance.

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug passing nothing to the start keyword of @variable

Other

  • New tutorials:
    • Sensitivity analysis of a linear program
    • Serving web apps
  • Minimal ellipse SDP tutorial refactored and improved
  • Docs updated to the latest version of each package
  • Lots of minor fixes and improvements to the documentation

Version 1.0.0 (March 24, 2022)

Read more about this release, along with an acknowledgement of all the contributors in our JuMP 1.0.0 is released blog post.

Breaking

  • The previously deprecated functions (v0.23.0, v0.23.1) have been removed. Deprecation was to improve consistency of function names:
    • num_nl_constraints (see num_nonlinear_constraints)
    • all_nl_constraints (see all_nonlinear_constraints)
    • add_NL_expression (see add_nonlinear_expression)
    • set_NL_objective (see set_nonlinear_objective)
    • add_NL_constraint (see add_nonlinear_constraint)
    • nl_expr_string (see nonlinear_expr_string)
    • nl_constraint_string (see nonlinear_constraint_string)
    • SymMatrixSpace (see SymmetricMatrixSpace)
  • The unintentionally exported variable JuMP.op_hint has been renamed to the unexported JuMP._OP_HINT

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug writing .nl files
  • Fixed a bug broadcasting SparseAxisArrays

Version 0.23.2 (March 14, 2022)

Added

  • Added relative_gap to solution_summary
  • register now throws an informative error if the function is not differentiable using ForwardDiff. In some cases, the check in register will encounter a false negative, and the informative error will be thrown at run-time. This usually happens when the function is non-differentiable in a subset of the domain.

Fixed

  • Fixed a scoping issue when extending the container keyword of containers

Other

  • Docs updated to the latest version of each package

Version 0.23.1 (March 2, 2022)

Deprecated

  • nl_expr_string and nl_constraint_string have been renamed to nonlinear_expr_string and nonlinear_constraint_string. The old methods still exist with deprecation warnings. This change should impact very few users because to call them you must rely on private internals of the nonlinear API. Users are encouraged to use sprint(show, x) instead, where x is the nonlinear expression or constraint of interest.

Added

  • Added support for Base.abs2(x) where x is a variable or affine expression. This is mainly useful for complex-valued constraints.

Fixed

  • Fixed addition of complex and real affine expressions
  • Fixed arithmetic for Complex-valued quadratic expressions
  • Fixed variable bounds passed as Rational{Int}(Inf)
  • Fixed printing of the coefficient (0 + 1im)
  • Fixed a bug when solution_summary is called prior to optimize!

Version 0.23.0 (February 25, 2022)

JuMP v0.23.0 is a breaking release. It is also a release-candidate for JuMP v1.0.0. That is, if no issues are found with the v0.23.0 release, then it will be re-tagged as v1.0.0.

Breaking

  • Julia 1.6 is now the minimum supported version
  • MathOptInterface has been updated to v1.0.0
  • All previously deprecated functionality has been removed
  • PrintMode, REPLMode and IJuliaMode have been removed in favor of the MIME types MIME"text/plain" and MIME"text/latex". Replace instances of ::Type{REPLMode} with ::MIME"text/plain", REPLMode with MIME("text/plain"), ::Type{IJuliaMode} with ::MIME"text/latex", and IJuliaMode with MIME("text/latex").
  • Functions containing the nl_ acronym have been renamed to the more explicit nonlinear_. For example, num_nl_constraints is now num_nonlinear_constraints and set_NL_objective is now set_nonlinear_objective. Calls to the old functions throw an error explaining the new name.
  • SymMatrixSpace has been renamed to SymmetricMatrixSpace

Added

  • Added nonlinear_dual_start_value and set_nonlinear_dual_start_value
  • Added preliminary support for Complex coefficient types

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug in solution_summary

Other

  • MILP examples have been migrated from GLPK to HiGHS
  • Fixed various typos
  • Improved section on setting constraint start values

Troubleshooting problems when updating

If you experience problems when updating, you are likely using previously deprecated functionality. (By default, Julia does not warn when you use deprecated features.)

To find the deprecated features you are using, start Julia with --depwarn=yes:

$ julia --depwarn=yes

Then install JuMP v0.22.3:

julia> using Pkg
julia> pkg"add JuMP@0.22.3"

And then run your code. Apply any suggestions, or search the release notes below for advice on updating a specific deprecated feature.

Version 0.22.3 (February 10, 2022)

Fixed

  • Fixed a reproducibility issue in the TSP tutorial
  • Fixed a reproducibility issue in the max_cut_sdp tutorial
  • Fixed a bug broadcasting an empty SparseAxisArray

Other

  • Added a warning and improved documentation for the modify-then-query case
  • Fixed a typo in the docstring of RotatedSecondOrderCone
  • Added Aqua.jl as a check for code health
  • Added introductions to each section of the tutorials
  • Improved the column generation and Benders decomposition tutorials
  • Updated documentation to MOI v0.10.8
  • Updated JuliaFormatter to v0.22.2

Version 0.22.2 (January 10, 2022)

Added

  • The function all_nl_constraints now returns all nonlinear constraints in a model
  • start_value and set_start_value can now be used to get and set the primal start for constraint references
  • Plural macros now return a tuple containing the elements that were defined instead of nothing
  • Anonymous variables are now printed as _[i] where i is the index of the variable instead of noname. Calling name(x) still returns "" so this is non-breaking.

Fixed

  • Fixed handling of min and max in nonlinear expressions
  • CartesianIndex is no longer allowed as a key for DenseAxisArrays.

Other

  • Improved the performance of GenericAffExpr
  • Added a tutorial on the Travelling Salesperson Problem
  • Added a tutorial on querying the Hessian of a nonlinear program

Version 0.22.0 (November 10, 2021)

JuMP v0.22 is a breaking release

Breaking

JuMP 0.22 contains a number of breaking changes. However, these should be invisible for the majority of users. You will mostly encounter these breaking changes if you: wrote a JuMP extension, accessed backend(model), or called @SDconstraint.

The breaking changes are as follows:

  • MathOptInterface has been updated to v0.10.4. For users who have interacted with the MOI backend, this contains a large number of breaking changes. Read the MathOptInterface release notes for more details.
  • The bridge_constraints keyword argument to Model and set_optimizer has been renamed add_bridges to reflect that more thing were bridged than just constraints.
  • The backend(model) field now contains a concrete instance of a MOI.Utilities.CachingOptimizer instead of one with an abstractly typed optimizer field. In most cases, this will lead to improved performance. However, calling set_optimizer after backend invalidates the old backend. For example:
    model = Model()
b = backend(model)
set_optimizer(model, GLPK.Optimizer)
@variable(model, x)
# b is not updated with `x`! Get a new b by calling `backend` again.
new_b = backend(model)
  • All usages of @SDconstraint are deprecated. The new syntax is @constraint(model, X >= Y, PSDCone()).
  • Creating a DenseAxisArray with a Number as an axis will now display a warning. This catches a common error in which users write @variable(model, x[length(S)]) instead of @variable(model, x[1:length(S)]).
  • The caching_mode argument to Model, for example, Model(caching_mode = MOIU.MANUAL) mode has been removed. For more control over the optimizer, use direct_model instead.
  • The previously deprecated lp_objective_perturbation_range and lp_rhs_perturbation_range functions have been removed. Use lp_sensitivity_report instead.
  • The .m fields of NonlinearExpression and NonlinearParameter have been renamed to .model.
  • Infinite variable bounds are now ignored. Thus, @variable(model, x <= Inf) will show has_upper_bound(x) == false. Previously, these bounds were passed through to the solvers which caused numerical issues for solvers expecting finite bounds.
  • The variable_type and constraint_type functions were removed. This should only affect users who previously wrote JuMP extensions. The functions can be deleted without consequence.
  • The internal functions moi_mode, moi_bridge_constraints, moi_add_constraint, and moi_add_to_function_constant are no longer exported.
  • The un-used method Containers.generate_container has been deleted.
  • The Containers API has been refactored, and _build_ref_sets is now public as Containers.build_ref_sets.
  • The parse_constraint_ methods for extending @constraint at parse time have been refactored in a breaking way. Consult the Extensions documentation for more details and examples.

Added

  • The TerminationStatusCode and ResultStatusCode enums are now exported by JuMP. Prefer termination_status(model) == OPTIMAL instead of == MOI.OPTIMAL, although the MOI. prefix way still works.
  • Copy a x::DenseAxisArray to an Array by calling Array(x).
  • NonlinearExpression is now a subtype of AbstractJuMPScalar
  • Constraints such as @constraint(model, x + 1 in MOI.Integer()) are now supported.
  • primal_feasibility_report now accepts a function as the first argument.
  • Scalar variables @variable(model, x[1:2] in MOI.Integer()) creates two variables, both of which are constrained to be in the set MOI.Integer.
  • Conic constraints can now be specified as inequalities under a different partial ordering. So @constraint(model, x - y in MOI.Nonnegatives()) can now be written as @constraint(model, x >= y, MOI.Nonnegatives()).
  • Names are now set for vectorized constraints.

Fixed

  • Fixed a performance issue when show was called on a SparseAxisArray with a large number of elements.
  • Fixed a bug displaying barrier and simplex iterations in solution_summary.
  • Fixed a bug by implementing hash for DenseAxisArray and SparseAxisArray.
  • Names are now only set if the solver supports them. Previously, this prevented solvers such as Ipopt from being used with direct_model.
  • MutableArithmetics.Zero is converted into a 0.0 before being returned to the user. Previously, some calls to @expression would return the undocumented MutableArithmetics.Zero() object. One example is summing over an empty set @expression(model, sum(x[i] for i in 1:0)). You will now get 0.0 instead.
  • AffExpr and QuadExpr can now be used with == 0 instead of iszero. This fixes a number of issues relating to Julia standard libraries such as LinearAlgebra and SparseArrays.
  • Fixed a bug when registering a user-defined function with splatting.

Other

  • The documentation is now available as a PDF.
  • The documentation now includes a full copy of the MathOptInterface documentation to make it easy to link concepts between the docs. (The MathOptInterface documentation has also been significantly improved.)

  • Added latex_formulation(model) which returns an object representing the latex formulation of a model. Use print(latex_formulation(model)) to print the formulation as a string.
  • User-defined functions in nonlinear expressions are now automatically registered to aid quick model prototyping. However, a warning is printed to encourage the manual registration.
  • DenseAxisArray's now support broadcasting over multiple arrays.
  • Container indices can now be iterators of Base.SizeUnknown.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug in rad2deg and deg2rad in nonlinear expressions.

  • Allow partial slicing of a DenseAxisArray, resolving an issue from 2014.
  • Fixed a bug printing variable names in IJulia.
  • Ending an IJulia cell with model now prints a summary of the model (like in the REPL) not the latex formulation. Use print(model) to print the latex formulation.

  • Removed an unnecessary type assertion in list_of_constraint_types.
  • Fixed a bug when copying models with registered expressions.

Other

  • The documentation has been significantly overhauled. It now has distinct sections for the manual, API reference, and examples. The existing examples in /examples have now been moved to /docs/src/examples and rewritten using Literate.jl, and they are now included in the documentation.
  • JuliaFormatter has been applied to most of the codebase. This will continue to roll out over time, as we fix upstream issues in the formatter, and will eventually become compulsory.

  • Fixed writing of nonlinear models to MathOptFormat (#2181).
  • Fixed construction of empty SparseAxisArray (#2179).
  • Fixed constraint with zero function (#2188).

Version 0.21.1 (Feb 18, 2020)

  • Improved the clarity of the with_optimizer deprecation warning.

Version 0.21.0 (Feb 16, 2020)

Breaking

  • Deprecated with_optimizer (#2090, #2084, #2141). You can replace with_optimizer by either nothing, optimizer_with_attributes or a closure:

    • replace with_optimizer(Ipopt.Optimizer) by Ipopt.Optimizer.
    • replace with_optimizer(Ipopt.Optimizer, max_cpu_time=60.0) by optimizer_with_attributes(Ipopt.Optimizer, "max_cpu_time" => 60.0).
    • replace with_optimizer(Gurobi.Optimizer, env) by () -> Gurobi.Optimizer(env).
    • replace with_optimizer(Gurobi.Optimizer, env, Presolve=0) by optimizer_with_attributes(() -> Gurobi.Optimizer(env), "Presolve" => 0).

    alternatively to optimizer_with_attributes, you can also set the attributes separately with set_optimizer_attribute.

  • Renamed set_parameter and set_parameters to set_optimizer_attribute and set_optimizer_attributes (#2150).

  • Broadcast should now be explicit inside macros. @SDconstraint(model, x >= 1) and @constraint(model, x + 1 in SecondOrderCone()) now throw an error instead of broadcasting 1 along the dimension of x (#2107).

  • @SDconstraint(model, x >= 0) is now equivalent to @constraint(model, x in PSDCone()) instead of @constraint(model, (x .- 0) in PSDCone()) (#2107).

  • The macros now create the containers with map instead of for loops, as a consequence, containers created by @expression can now have any element type and containers of constraint references now have concrete element types when possible. This fixes a long-standing issue where @expression could only be used to generate a collection of linear expressions. Now it works for quadratic expressions as well (#2070).

  • Calling deepcopy(::AbstractModel) now throws an error.

  • The constraint name is now printed in the model string (#2108).

Added

  • Added support for solver-independent and solver-specific callbacks (#2101).
  • Added write_to_file and read_from_file, supported formats are CBF, LP, MathOptFormat, MPS and SDPA (#2114).

  • The arithmetic between JuMP expression has be refactored into the MutableArithmetics package (#2107).
  • Improved error on complex values in NLP (#1978).

  • Documentation updates.
  • Numerous bug fixes.
  • Better error messages (#1977, #1978, #1997, #2017).
  • Performance improvements (#1947, #2032).

  • Added functions dual_objective_value, raw_status and set_parameter.
  • Added function set_objective_coefficient to modify the coefficient of a linear term of the objective (#2008).
  • Added functions set_normalized_rhs, normalized_rhs, and add_to_function_constant to modify and get the constant part of a constraint (#1935, #1960).
  • Added functions set_normalized_coefficient and normalized_coefficient to modify and get the coefficient of a linear term of a constraint (#1935, #1960).
  • Numerous other improvements in MOI 0.9, see the NEWS.md file of MOI for more details.

Version 0.19.2 (June 8, 2019)

  • Fix a bug in derivatives that could arise in models with nested nonlinear subexpressions.

Version 0.19.1 (May 12, 2019)

  • Usability and performance improvements.
  • Bug fixes.

Version 0.19.0 (February 15, 2019)

JuMP 0.19 contains significant breaking changes.

Breaking

  • JuMP's abstraction layer for communicating with solvers changed from MathProgBase (MPB) to MathOptInterface (MOI). MOI addresses many longstanding design issues. (See @mlubin's slides from JuMP-dev 2018.) JuMP 0.19 is compatible only with solvers that have been updated for MOI. See the installation guide for a list of solvers that have and have not yet been updated.

  • Most solvers have been renamed to PackageName.Optimizer. For example, GurobiSolver() is now Gurobi.Optimizer.

  • Solvers are no longer added to a model via Model(solver = XXX(kwargs...)). Instead use Model(with_optimizer(XXX, kwargs...)). For example, Model(with_optimizer(Gurobi.Optimizer, OutputFlag=0)).

  • JuMP containers (for example, the objects returned by @variable) have been redesigned. Containers.SparseAxisArray replaces JuMPDict, JuMPArray was rewritten (inspired by AxisArrays) and renamed Containers.DenseAxisArray, and you can now request a container type with the container= keyword to the macros. See the corresponding documentation for more details.

  • The statuses returned by solvers have changed. See the possible status values here. The MOI statuses are much richer than the MPB statuses and can be used to distinguish between previously indistinguishable cases (for example, did the solver have a feasible solution when it stopped because of the time limit?).

  • Starting values are separate from result values. Use value to query the value of a variable in a solution. Use start_value and set_start_value to get and set an initial starting point provided to the solver. The solutions from previous solves are no longer automatically set as the starting points for the next solve.

  • The data structures for affine and quadratic expressions AffExpr and QuadExpr have changed. Internally, terms are stored in dictionaries instead of lists. Duplicate coefficients can no longer exist. Accessors and iteration methods have changed.

  • JuMPNLPEvaluator no longer includes the linear and quadratic parts of the model in the evaluation calls. These are now handled separately to allow NLP solvers that support various types of constraints.

  • JuMP solver-independent callbacks have been replaced by solver-specific callbacks. See your favorite solver for more details. (See the note below: No solver-specific callbacks are implemented yet.)

  • The norm() syntax is no longer recognized inside macros. Use the SecondOrderCone() set instead.

  • JuMP no longer performs automatic transformation between special quadratic forms and second-order cone constraints. Support for these constraint classes depends on the solver.

  • The symbols :Min and :Max are no longer used as optimization senses. Instead, JuMP uses the OptimizationSense enum from MathOptInterface. @objective(model, Max, ...), @objective(model, Min, ...), @NLobjective(model, Max, ...), and @objective(model, Min, ...) remain valid, but @objective(m, :Max, ...) is no longer accepted.

  • The sign conventions for duals has changed in some cases for consistency with conic duality (see the documentation). The shadow_price helper method returns duals with signs that match conventional LP interpretations of dual values as sensitivities of the objective value to relaxations of constraints.

  • @constraintref is no longer defined. Instead, create the appropriate container to hold constraint references manually. For example,

    constraints = Dict() # Optionally, specify types for improved performance.
for i in 1:N
  constraints[i] = @constraint(model, ...)
end

  • The lowerbound, upperbound, and basename keyword arguments to the @variable macro have been renamed to lower_bound, upper_bound, and base_name, for consistency with JuMP's new style recommendations.

  • We rely on broadcasting syntax to apply accessors to collections of variables, for example, value.(x) instead of getvalue(x) for collections. (Use value(x) when x is a scalar object.)

Added

  • Splatting (like f(x...)) is recognized in restricted settings in nonlinear expressions.

  • Support for deleting constraints and variables.

  • The documentation has been completely rewritten using docstrings and Documenter.

  • Support for modeling mixed conic and quadratic models (for example, conic models with quadratic objectives and bi-linear matrix inequalities).

  • Significantly improved support for modeling new types of constraints and for extending JuMP's macros.

  • Support for providing dual warm starts.

  • Improved support for accessing solver-specific attributes (for example, the irreducible inconsistent subsystem).

  • Explicit control of whether symmetry-enforcing constraints are added to PSD constraints.

  • Support for modeling exponential cones.

  • Significant improvements in internal code quality and testing.

  • Style and naming guidelines.

  • Direct mode and manual mode provide explicit control over when copies of a model are stored or regenerated. See the corresponding documentation.

Regressions

There are known regressions from JuMP 0.18 that will be addressed in a future release (0.19.x or later):

  • Performance regressions in model generation (issue). Please file an issue anyway if you notice a significant performance regression. We have plans to address a number of performance issues, but we might not be aware of all of them.

  • Fast incremental NLP solves are not yet reimplemented (issue).

  • We do not yet have an implementation of solver-specific callbacks.

  • The column generation syntax in @variable has been removed (that is, the objective, coefficients, and inconstraints keyword arguments). Support for column generation will be re-introduced in a future release.

  • The ability to solve the continuous relaxation (that is, via solve(model; relaxation = true)) is not yet reimplemented (issue).

Version 0.18.5 (December 1, 2018)

  • Support views in some derivative evaluation functions.
  • Improved compatibility with PackageCompiler.

Version 0.18.4 (October 8, 2018)

  • Fix a bug in model printing on Julia 0.7 and 1.0.

Version 0.18.3 (October 1, 2018)

  • Add support for Julia v1.0 (Thanks @ExpandingMan)
  • Fix matrix expressions with quadratic functions (#1508)

Version 0.18.2 (June 10, 2018)

  • Fix a bug in second-order derivatives when expressions are present (#1319)
  • Fix a bug in @constraintref (#1330)

Version 0.18.1 (April 9, 2018)

  • Fix for nested tuple destructuring (#1193)
  • Preserve internal model when relaxation=true (#1209)
  • Minor bug fixes and updates for example

Version 0.18.0 (July 27, 2017)

  • Drop support for Julia 0.5.
  • Update for ForwardDiff 0.5.
  • Minor bug fixes.

Version 0.17.1 (June 9, 2017)

  • Use of constructconstraint! in @SDconstraint.
  • Minor bug fixes.

Version 0.17.0 (May 27, 2017)

  • Breaking change: Mixing quadratic and conic constraints is no longer supported.
  • Breaking change: The getvariable and getconstraint functions are replaced by indexing on the corresponding symbol. For instance, to access the variable with name x, one should now write m[:x] instead of getvariable(m, :x). As a consequence, creating a variable and constraint with the same name now triggers a warning, and accessing one of them afterwards throws an error. This change is breaking only in the latter case.
  • Addition of the getobjectivebound function that mirrors the functionality of the MathProgBase getobjbound function except that it takes into account transformations performed by JuMP.
  • Minor bug fixes.

The following changes are primarily of interest to developers of JuMP extensions:

  • The new syntax @constraint(model, expr in Cone) creates the constraint ensuring that expr is inside Cone. The Cone argument is passed to constructconstraint! which enables the call to the dispatched to an extension.
  • The @variable macro now calls constructvariable! instead of directly calling the Variable constructor. Extra arguments and keyword arguments passed to @variable are passed to constructvariable! which enables the call to be dispatched to an extension.
  • Refactor the internal function conicdata (used build the MathProgBase conic model) into smaller sub-functions to make these parts reusable by extensions.

Version 0.16.2 (March 28, 2017)

  • Minor bug fixes and printing tweaks
  • Address deprecation warnings for Julia 0.6

Version 0.16.1 (March 7, 2017)

  • Better support for AbstractArray in JuMP (Thanks @tkoolen)
  • Minor bug fixes

Version 0.16.0 (February 23, 2017)

  • Breaking change: JuMP no longer has a mechanism for selecting solvers by default (the previous mechanism was flawed and incompatible with Julia 0.6). Not specifying a solver before calling solve() will result in an error.
  • Breaking change: User-defined functions are no longer global. The first argument to JuMP.register is now a JuMP Model object within whose scope the function will be registered. Calling JuMP.register without a Model now produces an error.
  • Breaking change: Use the new JuMP.fix method to fix a variable to a value or to update the value to which a variable is fixed. Calling setvalue on a fixed variable now results in an error in order to avoid silent behavior changes. (Thanks @joaquimg)
  • Nonlinear expressions now print out similarly to linear/quadratic expressions (useful for debugging!)
  • New category keyword to @variable. Used for specifying categories of anonymous variables.
  • Compatibility with Julia 0.6-dev.
  • Minor fixes and improvements (Thanks @cossio, @ccoffrin, @blegat)

Version 0.15.1 (January 31, 2017)

  • Bugfix for @LinearConstraints and friends

Version 0.15.0 (December 22, 2016)

  • Julia 0.5.0 is the minimum required version for this release.
  • Document support for BARON solver
  • Enable info callbacks in more states than before, for example, for recording solutions. New when argument to addinfocallback (#814, thanks @yeesian)
  • Improved support for anonymous variables. This includes new warnings for potentially confusing use of the traditional non-anonymous syntax:
    • When multiple variables in a model are given the same name
    • When non-symbols are used as names, for example, @variable(m, x[1][1:N])
  • Improvements in iterating over JuMP containers (#836, thanks @IssamT)
  • Support for writing variable names in .lp file output (Thanks @leethargo)
  • Support for querying duals to SDP problems (Thanks @blegat)
  • The comprehension syntax with curly braces sum{}, prod{}, and norm2{} has been deprecated in favor of Julia's native comprehension syntax sum(), prod() and norm() as previously announced. (For early adopters of the new syntax, norm2() was renamed to norm() without deprecation.)
  • Unit tests rewritten to use Base.Test instead of FactCheck
  • Improved support for operations with matrices of JuMP types (Thanks @ExpandingMan)
  • The syntax to halt a solver from inside a callback has changed from throw(CallbackAbort()) to return JuMP.StopTheSolver
  • Minor bug fixes

Version 0.14.2 (December 12, 2016)

  • Allow singleton anonymous variables (includes bugfix)

Version 0.14.1 (September 12, 2016)

  • More consistent handling of states in informational callbacks, includes a new when parameter to addinfocallback for specifying in which state an informational callback should be called.

Version 0.14.0 (August 7, 2016)

  • Compatibility with Julia 0.5 and ForwardDiff 0.2
  • Support for "anonymous" variables, constraints, expressions, and parameters, for example, x = @variable(m, [1:N]) instead of @variable(m, x[1:N])
  • Support for retrieving constraints from a model by name via getconstraint
  • @NLconstraint now returns constraint references (as expected).
  • Support for vectorized expressions within lazy constraints
  • On Julia 0.5, parse new comprehension syntax sum(x[i] for i in 1:N if isodd(i)) instead of sum{ x[i], i in 1:N; isodd(i) }. The old syntax with curly braces will be deprecated in JuMP 0.15.
  • Now possible to provide nonlinear expressions as "raw" Julia Expr objects instead of using JuMP's nonlinear macros. This input format is useful for programmatically generated expressions.
  • s/Mathematical Programming/Mathematical Optimization/
  • Support for local cuts (Thanks to @madanim, Mehdi Madani)
  • Document Xpress interface developed by @joaquimg, Joaquim Dias Garcia
  • Minor bug and deprecation fixes (Thanks @odow, @jrevels)

Version 0.13.2 (May 16, 2016)

  • Compatibility update for MathProgBase

Version 0.13.1 (May 3, 2016)

  • Fix broken deprecation for registerNLfunction.

Version 0.13.0 (April 29, 2016)

  • Most exported methods and macros have been renamed to avoid camelCase. See the list of changes here. There is a 1-1 mapping from the old names to the new, and it is safe to simply replace the names to update existing models.
  • Specify variable lower/upper bounds in @variable using the lowerbound and upperbound keyword arguments.
  • Change name printed for variable using the basename keyword argument to @variable.
  • New @variables macro allows multi-line declaration of groups of variables.
  • A number of solver methods previously available only through MathProgBase are now exposed directly in JuMP. The fix was recorded live.
  • Compatibility fixes with Julia 0.5.
  • The "end" indexing syntax is no longer supported within JuMPArrays which do not use 1-based indexing until upstream issues are resolved, see here.

Version 0.12.2 (March 9, 2016)

  • Small fixes for nonlinear optimization

Version 0.12.1 (March 1, 2016)

  • Fix a regression in slicing for JuMPArrays (when not using 1-based indexing)

Version 0.12.0 (February 27, 2016)

  • The automatic differentiation functionality has been completely rewritten with a number of user-facing changes:
    • @defExpr and @defNLExpr now take the model as the first argument. The previous one-argument version of @defExpr is deprecated; all expressions should be named. For example, replace @defExpr(2x+y) with @defExpr(jump_model, my_expr, 2x+y).
    • JuMP no longer uses Julia's variable binding rules for efficiently re-solving a sequence of nonlinear models. Instead, we have introduced nonlinear parameters. This is a breaking change, so we have added a warning message when we detect models that may depend on the old behavior.
    • Support for user-defined functions integrated within nonlinear JuMP expressions.
  • Replaced iteration over AffExpr with Number-like scalar iteration; previous iteration behavior is now available via linearterms(::AffExpr).
  • Stopping the solver via throw(CallbackAbort()) from a callback no longer triggers an exception. Instead, solve() returns UserLimit status.
  • getDual() now works for conic problems (Thanks @emreyamangil.)
