Heinrich,
looking at the thread example I added the glp_config("TLS”) check and I was
getting a undefined reference which made me realized that for some reason I was
linking to a wrong and old GLPK library instead of the one manually compiled by
me.
So it’s all good now.
Thanks for your help!
Best,
Simone
