intlinprog - MaxTime and LPMaxIter

Dear Everyone, Could I ask how to set the intlinprog option in order to have BOTH MaxTime and LPMaxIter set to Inf (or as large as it can). Seems the two variables are interrelated (change one would effect the other). Thanks, Francis

You cannot set them to inf but you can set them to a large number.

>> opts = optimoptions('intlinprog','MaxTime',inf,'LPMaxIter',inf)

opts = 
intlinprog options:

   Set by user:
    LPMaxIter: Inf
      MaxTime: Inf
   Default:

...

Now whether that's a good idea or not...

Thanks Sean,

I tested it today. Discovered that the optimization will not start if the MaxTime is set to Inf. An appropriate choice would be 100,000 to 1,000,000.
