Lazy
| Type: | int |

| Modifiable: | Yes |
Determines whether a linear constraint is treated as a lazy
constraint. At the beginning of the MIP solution process, any
constraint whose Lazy attribute is set to 1, 2, or 3 (the default
value is 0) is removed from the model and placed in the lazy
constraint pool. Lazy constraints remain inactive until a feasible
solution is found, at which point the solution is checked against the
lazy constraint pool. If the solution violates any lazy constraints,
the solution is discarded and one or more of the violated lazy
constraints are pulled into the active model.
Larger values for this attribute cause the constraint to be pulled into the model more aggressively. With a value of 1, the constraint can be used to cut off a feasible solution, but it won't necessarily be pulled in if another lazy constraint also cuts off the solution. With a value of 2, all lazy constraints that are violated by a feasible solution will be pulled into the model. With a value of 3, lazy constraints that cut off the relaxation solution are also pulled in.
Note that deleting constraints from your model will cause this attribute to be discarded. If you'd like it to persist, your program will need to repopulate it after deleting the constraints and making a subsequent model update call.
Only affects MIP models.
