 This library offers an abstraction over multiple solvers. By default, it uses [cbc][cbc], but
 you can also activate other solvers using cargo features.

+### [cplex-rs][cplex]
+
+The IBM ILOG CPLEX Optimizer is a commercial high-performance optimization solver for linear, mixed-integer and quadratic programming.
+
+good_lp uses the [cplex-rs](https://github.com/mbiggio/cplex-rs/tree/main) crate to call CPLEX through safe rust bindings, which in turn uses the [cplex-rs-sys](https://crates.io/crates/highs-sys) crate to call the raw bindings to the CPLEX C API.
+
+You will need a valid CPLEX installation to use this feature. CPLEX should be installed in its default installation directory, or alternatively you can specify its installation directory through the `CPLEX_PATH` environment variable at compile time
+
+Since cplex-rs-sys uses [bindgen](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen) to generate the raw C bindings, you will also need need an installation of clang and llvm as indicated in the [bindgen requirements](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-bindgen/requirements.html).
