Dears,
I've been fighting some (few) quarters with the translation of the following 
constraint into GLPK.
If anybody can help with a working answer :

trying to translate efficiently the "element" CP constraint to GLPK, I've the 
following (simpler) constraints that i want to translate (but let's forget 
"element" for now) :

                (binary_y = 1) <=> (X = Z and W = K)            every thing is  
variable.

X,Z are bounded (1..60), W,K are also bounded (1..10, they are vector indices)

That's, if I ever have binary_y = 1, I want to put 2 pairs of variables equal. 
'and' is a logical connector and '<=>' stands for 'equivalent' (double 
'implies').
In fact, I'm working with a problem with 20000 variables and many many 
constraints. So the 'performance' is a critical issue.

I know that the 'element' constraint has been studied but those general 
solutions did not work (efficiently) for me.
A translation by the BigM method is welcome (apart from all cons of that 
method).

regards

Alex
