Error? in OptimizationPackage/Optimization.md Documentation

[gbarz]

The code provided in the document examples below does not run successfully for me in Julia 1.10. Instead the following is returned in both the unconstrained and constrained cases:

ERROR: UndefVarError: LBFGS not defined

In the unconstrained problem, if Optimization.LBFGS() is changed to just LBFGS(), it finds the solution. However, the constrained problem still returns the following:

ERROR: The algorithm LBFGS{Nothing, LineSearches.InitialStatic{Float64}, LineSearches.HagerZhang{Float64, Base.RefValue{Bool}}, Optim.var"#19#21"} does not support constraints. Either remove the cons function passed to OptimizationFunction or use a different algorithm.

Is there something else needed to get this to run successfully?

Unconstrained rosenbrock problem

using Optimization, Zygote

rosenbrock(x, p) = (p[1] - x[1])^2 + p[2] * (x[2] - x[1]^2)^2 x0 = zeros(2) p = [1.0, 100.0]

optf = OptimizationFunction(rosenbrock, AutoZygote()) prob = Optimization.OptimizationProblem(optf, x0, p) sol = solve(prob, Optimization.LBFGS())

With nonlinear and bounds constraints

function con2_c(res, x, p) res .= [x[1]^2 + x[2]^2, (x[2] * sin(x[1]) + x[1]) - 5] end

optf = OptimizationFunction(rosenbrock, AutoZygote(), cons = con2_c) prob = OptimizationProblem(optf, x0, p, lcons = [1.0, -Inf], ucons = [1.0, 0.0], lb = [-1.0, -1.0], ub = [1.0, 1.0]) res = solve(prob, Optimization.LBFGS(), maxiters = 100)

What versions are you using, can you show ]st?

I would confirm by restarting julia, maybe you had older versions that are being used even though your st shows new versions

[gbarz]

Thanks for the review. After a full VS Code reboot, it is indeed working. I had created a new environment to ensure updated package versions but some old settings must have been lingering.

Hopefully it was not too much of your time. Navigating the options in Optimization and Jump environments has been quite a bit to process initially.

No worries at all! It happens, and we also need to make this all a bit easier. Getting better every day.
