""

number of threads allowed internally in CONOPT.

As discussed in Multi Threading CONOPT can use multiple threads using the OpenMP standard. The multi-threading capability is divided into three areas: (1) Internally in CONOPT, (2) during function and derivative calls using the FDEval callback routine, and (3) during directional 2^nd derivative calls using the 2DDir callback routine.

This method is used to define how many threads can be used internally in CONOPT. The argument ThreadS is interpreted as follows:

• ThreadS = 0: use MaxThread threads, as many as the OpenMP system will allocate,
• ThreadS = 1: use one thread (this is the default),
• ThreadS > 1: use min(ThreadS,MaxThread) threads.

Parameters
