\chapter{Introduction}
The GNU Linear Programming Kit (GLPK)\cite{GLPK} package supplies a solver for
large scale linear programming (LP) and mixed integer programming (MIP). The
GLPK project is hosted at
\linebreak\href{http://www.gnu.org/software/glpk}{http://www.gnu.org/software/glpk}.

It has two mailing lists:\index{support}

\chapter{Getting started}

This chapter will run you through the installation of GLPK for Java and the
execution of a trivial example.

\section{Installation}\index{installation}
\subsection{Windows}

The following description assumes:

\begin{itemize}
\item You are using a 64-bit version of Windows. Replace folder name w64 by w32
if you are using a 32-bit version.
\item The current version of GLPK is \glpkVersionMajor.\glpkVersionMinor.
Please, adjust paths if necessary.
\item Your path for program files is "C:\textbackslash Program Files".
Please, adjust paths if necessary.
\end{itemize}

Download the current version of GLPK for Windows from
\href{https://sourceforge.net/projects/winglpk/}{https://sourceforge.net/projects/winglpk/}.

The filename for version \glpkVersionMajor.\glpkVersionMinor\ is
winglpk-\glpkVersionMajor.\glpkVersionMinor.zip. Unzip the file. Copy folder
glpk-\glpkVersionMajor.\glpkVersionMinor\ to
"C:\textbackslash Program Files\textbackslash GLPK\textbackslash ".

To check the installation run the following command:

\lstset{language=bash,escapeinside={\#}{.}}
\begin{lstlisting}
"C:\Program Files\GLPK\w64\glpsol.exe" --version
\end{lstlisting}

To use GLPK for Java you need a Java development kit to be installed.
The Oracle JDK can be downloaded from
\href{http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html}{http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html}.

To check the installation run the following commands:

\begin{lstlisting}
"%JAVA_HOME%\bin\javac" -version
java -version
\end{lstlisting}

\subsection{Linux}
\subsubsection{Debian package}

For Debian and Ubuntu an installation package for GLPK for Java exists.
It can be installed by the following commands:

\lstset{language=bash,escapeinside={\#}{.}}
\begin{lstlisting}
sudo apt-get install libglpk-java
\end{lstlisting}

The installation will be in /usr not in /usr/local as assumed in the examples
below.

\subsubsection{Installation from source}

Download the current version of GLPK source with

\begin{lstlisting}
wget ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/glpk-#\glpkVersionMajor..#\glpkVersionMinor..tar.gz
\end{lstlisting}

Unzip the archive with:

\begin{lstlisting}
tar -xzf glpk-#\glpkVersionMajor..#\glpkVersionMinor..tar.gz
cd glpk-#\glpkVersionMajor..#\glpkVersionMinor.
\end{lstlisting}

Configure with

\begin{lstlisting}
./configure
\end{lstlisting}

Make and install with:

\begin{lstlisting}
make
make check
sudo make install
\end{lstlisting}

Check the installation with

\begin{lstlisting}
glpsol --version
\end{lstlisting}

For the next steps you will need a Java Development Kit (JDK) to be installed.

You can check the correct installation with the following commands:

\begin{lstlisting}
$JAVA_HOME/bin/javac -version
java -version
\end{lstlisting}

If the JDK is missing refer to http://openjdk.java.net/install/ for
installation instructions.

To build GLPK for Java you will need package SWIG (Simplified Wrapper and
Interface Generator, \href{http://www.swig.org/}{http://www.swig.org/}). You
can check the installation with the following command:

\begin{lstlisting}
swig -version
\end{lstlisting}

Most Linux distribution contain a SWIG package. The installation command will
depend on the distribution, e.g.

\begin{itemize}
\item Debian: sudo apt-get install swig
\item Fedora: sudo yum install swig
\item Gentoo: sudo emerge swig
\end{itemize}

Download GLPK for Java from \href{https://sourceforge.net/projects/glpk-java/files/}{https://sourceforge.net/projects/glpk-java/files/}.

Unzip the archive with:

\begin{lstlisting}
tar -xzf glpk-java-#\glpkJavaVersion..tar.gz
cd glpk-java-#\glpkJavaVersion.
\end{lstlisting}

Configure with:
\begin{lstlisting}
./configure
\end{lstlisting}

If configure is called with \code{--enable-libpath},
class GLPKJNI will try to load the GLPK library from the path specified by
java.library.path (see section \ref{sec:JNI-library}).

Some POSIX systems like OS X have jni.h in a special path. You may want to
specify this path in the parameters CPPFLAGS and SWIGFLAGS for the configure
script, e.g.

\begin{lstlisting}
./configure \
  CPPFLAGS=-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers \
  SWIGFLAGS=-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers
\end{lstlisting}

If libglpk.so is in a special path you may specify this path using parameter
LDFLAGS, e.g.

\begin{lstlisting}
./configure LDFLAGS=-L/opt/lib
\end{lstlisting}

Make and install with:

\begin{lstlisting}
make
make check
sudo make install
\end{lstlisting}

\index{installation path}If you have no authorization to install GLPK and GLPK
for Java in the /usr directory, you can alternatively install it in your home
directory as is shown in the following listing.

\begin{lstlisting}
#\#. Download source code
mkdir -p /home/$USER/src

-classpath /home/$USER/glpk/share/java/glpk-java-#\glpkJavaVersion..jar:. \
GmplSwing marbles.mod
\end{lstlisting}

\subsection{OS X}
\subsubsection{Installation from source}

For building GLPK for Java the package manager Homebrew is needed. The
installation and usage is described at \url{https://brew.sh}.

Install GLPK

\begin{lstlisting}
brew install glpk
\end{lstlisting}

For the next steps you will need a Java Development Kit (JDK) to be installed.

You can check the correct installation with the following commands:

\begin{lstlisting}
$JAVA_HOME/bin/javac -version
java -version
\end{lstlisting}

If the JDK is missing it can be installed with

\begin{lstlisting}
brew cask install java
\end{lstlisting}

To build GLPK for Java you will need package SWIG (Simplified Wrapper and
Interface Generator, \href{http://www.swig.org/}{http://www.swig.org/}). You
can check the installation with the following command:

\begin{lstlisting}
swig -version
\end{lstlisting}

SWIG can be installed with

\begin{lstlisting}
brew install swig
\end{lstlisting}

Download GLPK for Java from \url{https://sourceforge.net/projects/glpk-java/files/}.

Unzip the archive with:

\begin{lstlisting}
tar -xzf glpk-java-#\glpkJavaVersion..tar.gz
cd glpk-java-#\glpkJavaVersion.
\end{lstlisting}

Configure with:
\begin{lstlisting}
./configure
\end{lstlisting}

If configure is called with \code{--enable-libpath},
class GLPKJNI will try to load the GLPK library from the path specified by
java.library.path (see section \ref{sec:JNI-library}).

OS X has jni.h in a special path. You will have to specify this path by setting
parameters CPPFLAGS and SWIGFLAGS for the configure script.

\begin{lstlisting}
./configure \
  CPPFLAGS=-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers \
  SWIGFLAGS=-I/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers
\end{lstlisting}

If libglpk.so is in a special path you may specify this path using parameter
LDFLAGS, e.g.

\begin{lstlisting}
./configure LDFLAGS=-L/opt/lib
\end{lstlisting}

Make and install with:

\begin{lstlisting}
make
make check
sudo make install
\end{lstlisting}

\section{Trivial example}

In the example we will create a Java class which will write the GLPK version to the console.

With a text editor create a text file Test.java with the following content:

\lstset{language=Java,escapeinside={\#}{.}}
\begin{lstlisting}
import org.gnu.glpk.GLPK;
public class Test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println( GLPK.glp_version());
  }
}
\end{lstlisting}

\subsection{Windows}

Compile the class

\lstset{language=bash,escapeinside={\#}{.}}
\begin{lstlisting}
set CLASSPATH=C:Program Files\GLPK\glpk-#\glpkVersionMajor..#\glpkVersionMinor.\w64\glpk-java.jar
"%JAVA_HOME%/bin/javac" Test.java
\end{lstlisting}

Run the class

\begin{lstlisting}
set CLASSPATH=C:\Program Files\GLPK\glpk-#\glpkVersionMajor..#\glpkVersionMinor.\w64\glpk-java.jar;.
java -Djava.library.path="C:Program Files\GLPK\glpk-#\glpkVersionMajor..#\glpkVersionMinor.\w64" Test
\end{lstlisting}

The output will be the GLPK version number, for example: \glpkVersionMajor.\glpkVersionMinor.

\subsection{Linux}
Compile the class

\begin{lstlisting}
javac -classpath /usr/local/share/java/glpk-java.jar Test.java
\end{lstlisting}

Run the class:

\begin{lstlisting}
java -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib/jni \
-classpath /usr/local/share/java/glpk-java.jar:. \
Test
\end{lstlisting}

The output will be the GLPK version number, for example: \glpkVersionMajor.\glpkVersionMinor.

\section{Loading the JNI library}
\label{sec:JNI-library}
\index{JNI library}
To be able to use the JNI library in a Java program it has to be loaded.
The path to dynamic link libaries can specified on the command line when
calling the Java runtime, e.g.
\begin{verbatim}
java -Djava.library.path=/usr/local/lib/jni/libglpk_java
\end{verbatim}

The following code is used in class GLPKJNI to load the JNI library:

% Use Java style for listings.
% For escaping to latex inside listings use "`'".
\lstset{language=Java,escapeinside={\`}{'}}
\begin{lstlisting}
static {
  try {
    if (System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase().contains("windows")) {
      // try to load Windows library
#ifdef GLPKPRELOAD
      try {
        System.loadLibrary("glpk_`\glpkVersionMajor'_`\glpkVersionMinor'");
      } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
        // The dependent library might be in the OS library search path.
      }
#endif
      System.loadLibrary("glpk_`\glpkVersionMajor'_`\glpkVersionMinor'_java");
    } else {
      // try to load Linux library
#ifdef GLPKPRELOAD
      try {
        System.loadLibrary("glpk");
      } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
        // The dependent library might be in the OS library search path.
      }   
#endif
      System.loadLibrary("glpk_java");
    }
  } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
    System.err.println(
      "The dynamic link library for GLPK for Java could not be"
      + "loaded.\nConsider using\njava -Djava.library.path=");
    throw e;
  }
}
\end{lstlisting}

GLPKPRELOAD is enabled in the Windows build files by default.
For POSIX systems it can be enabled by

\lstset{language=bash,escapeinside={\#}{.}}
\begin{lstlisting}
./configure --enable-libpath
\end{lstlisting}

If the JNI library can not be loaded, you will receive an exception
\linebreak java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError.

\section{Exceptions}
\index{exceptions}
\index{GlpkException}
When illegal parameters are passed to a function of the GLPK native library
an exception GlpkException is thrown. Due to the architecture of GLPK all
GLPK objects are invalid when such an exception has occured.

\subsection{Implementation details}
GLPK for Java registers a function glp\_java\_error\_hook() to glp\_error\_hook()
before calling an GLPK API function. If an error occurs function glp\_free\_env
is called and a long jump is used to return to the calling environment. Then
function glp\_java\_throw() is called which throws GlpkException.

\section{Network problems}
For network problems additional data like capacity and cost of arcs or the
inflow of vertics has to be specified. The GLPK library does not provide
data structures. In GLPK for Java classes \_glp\_java\_arc\_data and
\_glp\_java\_vertex\_data are provided.

When creating a graph the size of the structures for these classes has to be
specified. In some routines the offsets to individual fields in the structures are
needed. The following constants have been defined:

\begin{itemize}
\item GLP\_JAVA\_A\_CAP  - offset of field cap in arc data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_A\_COST - offset of field cost in arc data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_A\_LOW  - offset of field low in arc data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_A\_RC   - offset of field rc in arc data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_A\_X    - offset of field x in arc data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_A\_SIZE - size of arc data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_V\_CUT  - offset of field cut in vertex data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_V\_PI   - offset of field pi in vertex data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_V\_RHS  - offset of field rhs in vertex data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_V\_SET  - offset of field set in vertex data
\item GLP\_JAVA\_V\_SIZE - size of vertex data
\end{itemize}

For accessing vertices method GLPK.glp\_java\_vertex\_get can be used.

For accessing the data areas of arcs and vertices methods
GLPK.glp\_java\_arc\_get\_data,\linebreak
GLPK.glp\_java\_vertex\_data\_get, and
GLPK.glp\_java\_vertex\_get\_data can be used.

\lstset{language=Java,escapeinside={\#}{'}}
\begin{lstlisting}
glp_arc arc;
glp_java_arc_data adata;
glp_java_vertex_data vdata;

glp_graph graph =
        GLPK.glp_create_graph(
        GLPKConstants.GLP_JAVA_V_SIZE,
        GLPKConstants.GLP_JAVA_A_SIZE);
GLPK.glp_set_graph_name(graph,
        MinimumCostFlow.class.getName());

int ret = GLPK.glp_add_vertices(graph, 9);

GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 1, "v1");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 2, "v2");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 3, "v3");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 4, "v4");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 5, "v5");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 6, "v6");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 7, "v7");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 8, "v8");
GLPK.glp_set_vertex_name(graph, 9, "v9");
           
vdata = GLPK.glp_java_vertex_data_get(graph, 1);
vdata.setRhs(20);
vdata = GLPK.glp_java_vertex_data_get(graph, 9);
vdata.setRhs(-20);
        
arc = GLPK.glp_add_arc(graph, 1, 2);
adata = GLPK.glp_java_arc_get_data(arc);
adata.setLow(0); adata.setCap(14); adata.setCost(0);

...

GLPK.glp_write_mincost(graph, 
        GLPKConstants.GLP_JAVA_V_RHS,
        GLPKConstants.GLP_JAVA_A_LOW,
        GLPKConstants.GLP_JAVA_A_CAP,
        GLPKConstants.GLP_JAVA_A_COST,
        "mincost.dimacs");
GLPK.glp_delete_graph(graph);

\end{lstlisting}

\section{Callbacks}
\index{callbacks}
\index{GlpkCallback}
\index{GlpkCallbackListener}
The MIP solver provides a callback functionality. This is used to call
method callback of class GlpkCallback. A Java program can listen to the
callbacks by instantiating a class implementing interface
GlpkCallbackListener and registering the object with method addListener()
of class GlpkCallback. The listener can be deregistered with method
removeListener(). The listener can use method GLPK.glp\_ios\_reason() to find
out why it is called. For details see the GLPK library documentation.

\begin{landscape}
\begin{figure}
\caption{Callbacks and Error Handling}
\includegraphics[scale=.313]{swimlanes.pdf}
\end{figure}
\end{landscape}

\section{Output listener}
\index{output listener}
\index{GlpkTerminal}
\index{GlpkTerminalListener}
GLPK provides a hook for terminal output. A Java program can listen to the
callbacks by instantiating a class implementing interface GlpkTerminalListener
and registering the object with method addListener of class GlpkTerminal.
The listener can be dregistered with method removeListener().
After a call to glp\_free\_env() the GlpkTerminal has to registered again
by calling GLPK.glp\_term\_hook(null, null). glp\_free\_env() is called if
an exception GlpkException occurs.

\section{Aborting a GLPK library call}
\index{abort}
\index{GlpkException}
\index{glp\_java\_error}
Method void GLPK.glp\_java\_error(String message) can be used to abort any call
to the GLPK library. An exception GlpkException will occur. The call must be
placed in the same thread as the initial call that is to be aborted.
The output method of a GlpkTerminalListener can be used for this purpose.

\section{Debugging support}
\index{message level}
\index{debug}
\index{glp\_java\_set\_msg\_lvl}
Method void GLPK.glp\_java\_set\_msg\_lvl(int msg\_lvl) can be used to enable
extra output signaling when a GLPK library function is entered or left using 
value with GLPKConstants.GLP\_JAVA\_MSG\_LVL\_ALL. The output is disabled by a
call with value GLPKConstants.GLP\_JAVA\_MSG\_LVL\_OFF.

\section{Locales}
\index{locales}
\index{glp\_java\_set\_numeric\_locale}
Method void GLPK.glp\_java\_set\_numeric\_locale(String locale) can be used to
set the locale for numeric formatting. When importing model files the GLPK
library expects to be using locale "C".

\section{Threads}
\index{threads}
The GLPK library is not thread safe. Never two threads should be running that
access the GLPK library at the same time. When a new thread accesses the
library it should call GLPK.glp\_free\_env(). When using an GlpkTerminalListener
it is necessary to register GlpkTerminal again by calling
\linebreak GLPK.glp\_term\_hook(null, null).

When writing a GUI application it is advisable to use a separate thread for
the calls to GLPK. Otherwise the GUI cannot react to events during the call
to the GLPK libary.

\chapter{Troubleshooting}
\index{troubleshooting}
This chapter discusses errors that may occur due to incorrect usage of
the GLPK for Java package.

If the GLPK for Java class library was built for another version of GLPK
than the GLPK for JNI library a java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError may
occur in class org.gnu.glpk.GLPKJNI, e.g.

\begin{verbatim}
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
org.gnu.glpk.GLPKJNI.GLP_BF_LUF_get()I
at org.gnu.glpk.GLPKJNI.GLP_BF_LUF_get(Native Method)
at org.gnu.glpk.GLPKConstants.<clinit>(GLPKConstants.java:56) 
\end{verbatim}

If the GLPK for JNI library was built for another version of GLPK than
the currently installed GLPK library an java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError
may occur during dlopen, e.g.

\begin{verbatim}
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
/usr/local/lib/jni/libglpk_java.36.dylib:
dlopen(/usr/local/lib/jni/libglpk_java.36.dylib, 1):
Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/glpk/lib/libglpk.35.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/jni/libglpk_java.36.dylib
