Class COptQuestTuner

public class COptQuestTuner
extends COptQuestOptimization

The COptQuestTuner class helps you in determining the optimal settings for search parameters in the COptQuestSearchParameters class for a model.

You will need to inherit this class and run your model in the overridden Evaluate() method. After the model is run you will need to set an objective value for the set of search parameters provided by this class. When the tuner is finished you can print out the search parameters using the Write() method of the COptQuestSearchParameters class.
