I am working on a column generation problem.
The master problem shall be written in MathProg and save the dual values in
a database.
The subproblems to generate the colums shall be written in MathProg too
using
the dual values from the database.
Generated columns will be kept on the database.

When developping the equations this approach seems easier to me then
starting
programming C or Java.

I am currently adding this and will upload it to my subversion repository.
