With the procedure OptionGetString you can obtain the string representation of the current value of an AIMMS option, as displayed in the AIMMS Options dialog box.

OptionGetString(
     OptionName,          ! (input) scalar string expression
     CurrentString        ! (output) scalar string parameter
     )

Arguments

OptionName

A string expression holding the name of the option.

CurrentString

A scalar string parameter that, on return, contains the string representation of the current value of the option.

Return Value

The procedure returns 1 if the option exists, or 0 if the name refers to a non-existent option.
