Macro Variable _ORLP_ |
The LP procedure defines a macro variable named _ORLP_. This variable contains a character string that indicates the status of the procedure. It is set whenever the user gets control, at breakpoints, and at procedure termination. The form of the _ORLP_ character string is STATUS= PHASE= OBJECTIVE= P_FEAS= D_FEAS= INT_ITER= INT_FEAS= ACTIVE= INT_BEST= PHASE1_ITER= PHASE2_ITER= PHASE3_ITER=. The terms are interpreted as follows:
STATUS= |
the status of the current solution |
PHASE= |
the phase the procedure is in (1, 2, or 3) |
OBJECTIVE= |
the current objective value |
P_FEAS= |
whether the current solution is primal feasible |
D_FEAS= |
whether the current solution is dual feasible |
INT_ITER= |
the number of integer iterations performed |
INT_FEAS= |
the number of integer feasible solutions found |
ACTIVE= |
the number of active nodes in the current branch-and-bound tree |
INT_BEST= |
the best integer objective value found |
PHASE1_ITER= |
the number of iterations performed in phase 1 |
PHASE2_ITER= |
the number of iterations performed in phase 2 |
PHASE3_ITER= |
the number of iterations performed in phase 3 |
Table 5.5 shows the possible values for the nonnumeric terms in the string.

This information can be used when PROC LP is one step in a larger program that needs to identify how the LP procedure terminated. Because _ORLP_ is a standard SAS macro variable, it can be used in the ways that all macro variables can be used (see the SAS Guide to Macro Processing).
