Let me see if I’m following … you’ve made modifications to mipsopf_solver.m and you would like them to be used by the DC OPF as well as the AC OPF? If so, unfortunately, that is not possible. The mipsopf_solver() function is specific to the AC OPF formulation. The standard DC OPF formulation results in a simple QP or LP problem that can be passed directly to qps_matpower() to solve using any of the available QP/LP solvers.
Do your modifications to the DC OPF problem still result in a QP or LP problem? If so, you should be able to make the modifications for the DC version right in dcopf_solver().
