The following simple multiprocessing of a square function works fine:
from multiprocessing import Pool
class A(object):
def square(self, x):
return x * x
def test(self):
pool = Pool()
result = pool.map(self.square, range(5))
return result
But when I add an initialization of a Gurobi model in the class like this,
from multiprocessing import Pool
from gurobipy import *
class A(object):
def __init__(self):
self.b = Model()
def square(self, x):
return x * x
def test(self):
pool = Pool()
result = pool.map(self.square, range(5))
return result
A().test()
It returns the following error:
File "model.pxi", line 290, in gurobipy.Model.__getattr__ (../../src/python/gurobipy.c:53411)
KeyError: '__getstate__'
A serial version with Gurobi works fine:
from gurobipy import *
class A(object):
def __init__(self):
self.b = Model()
def square(self, x):
return x * x
def test(self):
res = [self.square(i) for i in range(5)]
return res
A().test()
