  • Cygwin

First you must download scipsuit from here.

Then you must extract it with tar xvfz scipoptsuite-3.1.1.tgz command.

Do the following steps in order to install scip on 32-bit Windows using cygwin (unfortunately you cannot install scip on 64-bit Windows using cygwin):

  1. Install these packages: bison, flex, pcre, gcc, g++, gcc-fortran, readline (find them using the search bar in the cygwin installer)
  2. Copy the contents of the include folder into cygwin/usr/include
  3. Copy the contents of the lib folder into cygwin/lib
  4. Go to the zimpl folder of scipsuite and run the make command
  5. Go to the scipsuite root directory and run the make command
  6. Go to the scip/bin folder and run ./scip; everything should work and you should see a welcome message as follows:
parham@SVE14A27CXH ~/scipoptsuite-3.1.0/scip-3.1.0/bin
$ ./scip
