OOQP is an object-oriented C++ package, based on a primal-dual interior-point method, for solving convex quadratic programming problems (QPs). It contains code that can be used "out of the box" to solve a variety of structured QPs, including general sparse QPs, QPs arising from support vector machines, Huber regression problems, and QPs with bound constraints.

OOQP also can be used as a framework can be used to design efficient solvers for new classes of structured QPs. Its design allows for easy substitution of the linear algebra modules, allowing different standard linear algebra packages to be tried.
