This reminds me that at the very top of my "wish" list for GLPK is a control 
language for GMPL.  Something to experiment with various decomposition methods, 
column generation, and so on.

Subject: Re: [Help-glpk] Parametric studies in GMPL?

Hello Jeffy,

you can use a shell script.

Here is a minimalistic example. Save the following as file test.awk

BEGIN {
modfile = "test.mod";
datfile = "test.dat";
system("rm " modfile);
printf ("Writing model file\n");
printf ("#model file\n") > modfile;
printf ("param iter;\n") > modfile;
printf ("solve;\n") > modfile;
printf ("display iter;\n") > modfile;
printf ("end;\n") > modfile;
close(modfile);
for (i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
  system("rm " datfile);
  printf("\n\nIteration %i\n",i);
  printf ("Writing data file\n");
  printf("#data file %i\n", i) > datfile;
  printf("data;\n") > datfile;
  printf("param iter := %i;\n", i) > datfile;
  printf("end;\n") > datfile;
  close(datfile);
  system("glpsol -m " modfile " -d " datfile);
  }
exit;
}


Run the script with

awk -f test.awk

Windows users can find a binary for awk at 
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gawk.htm
For Windows replace "rm " by "del ".

Please, observe that glpsol allows multiple data files,
so you could have one with the changing parameter and another
with the rest of your model data.

Best regards

Xypron
