Make has_dual_solution_ private.
Line 249 exposes mutable solution state. A caller can change dual availability without preserving the solution invariant. Move the field to private scope. Expose a read-only has_dual_solution() accessor. Limit state changes to the solver construction path.
As per coding guidelines, “keep data members private.”

Verify that failed accessors do not modify caller buffers.
The test passes uninitialized buffers and checks only the returned status. It will pass if an accessor writes into the buffer before returning CUOPT_INVALID_ARGUMENT.
Initialize exact-size caller buffers with sentinels. Add an adjacent guard value. Assert that each buffer and guard remain unchanged after both failed calls. This covers the buffer-write regression described by this PR.

Add a cuOptGetProblemIntAttribute(problem, CUOPT_ATTR_NUM_CONSTRAINTS, ...) assertion for the expected combined count of 2. cuOptGetNumConstraints and the integer-attribute dispatch are separate paths.

Document or privatize the new Python API surface.
has_dual_solution is a new public Solution constructor parameter, but the class documentation does not describe it. raise_if_no_dual_solution is a new public method without type hints or a docstring.
Make the helper private if it is internal. Otherwise, add type hints and document its parameter, return value, and AttributeError. Document that has_dual_solution=False disables dual-solution and reduced-cost access.
As per coding guidelines, “Require type hints on new public Python functions and classes” and “Document new public Python APIs with meaningful docstring content covering parameters, returns, and raises.”

Preserve has_dual_solution_ in copy_from.
The new flag is not copied with the other solution state. A fresh destination remains true when it copies a QCQP solution, which can re-enable invalid dual and reduced-cost access. Assign has_dual_solution_ = other.has_dual_solution_ in copy_from, and check other solution reconstruction paths for the same state transfer.

This diff seems more invasive than necessary to handle the temporary situation where QCQP doesn't return duals. We already have a documented convention of returning NaN in this situation, we just need the vectors to be of the correct length. What code do we need to track the appropriate lengths of the vectors to return in the interfaces? We'll need this logic when QCQP duals are implemented anyway. |

I have updated its computation and now it's the sum of linear and quadratic constraints. This is to address Chris's comment, which is achievable at the point.

So the idea is that you want to return NaN here, until we support getting the dual solution from QCQP problems? Rather than returning a bad status?

I was expecting that we'd want cuOptGetDualSolution to return a vector of length num_linear_constraints. Combined with the change in definition of getNumConstraints in this PR, we're changing the contract of cuOptGetDualSolution. Do we want to do this? Is this change in line with what the API will look like once we can return duals on quadratic constraints?

We can avoid duplication and call cuOptGetProblemIntAttribute(problem, CUOPT_ATTR_NUM_CONSTRAINTS, &num_constraints_ptr) here instead.

Description
cuOptGetDualSolution/cuOptGetReducedCostswrote more elements thancuOptGetNumConstraintsdocumented whenever the problem had quadraticconstraints, overrunning a caller-sized buffer. Root cause: quadratic
constraints are internally reformulated into second-order cones for the
barrier solver, which grows the row count beyond the original
constraint count, but the returned dual vector was never resized back
down before being copied into the caller's buffer — and dual recovery
for QCQP isn't supported yet regardless.
Fix: dual solution / reduced cost access for QCQP now returns an error
instead of writing invalid or wrong-sized data, consistently across all
three surfaces:
cuOptGetDualSolution/cuOptGetReducedCostsreturnCUOPT_INVALID_ARGUMENT(matching the existing MIP-solution pattern).Solution.get_dual_solution()/get_reduced_cost()raiseAttributeErroronly when explicitly called — the solve itself stillsucceeds normally.
dual_solution/reduced_costare simply omitted from theresponse payload (same mechanism already used for other optional
fields), so a QCQP solve still succeeds end-to-end.
In all cases, a normal solve (primal solution, objective, termination
status, etc.) is unaffected for QCQP problems — only explicit
dual/reduced-cost access is gated.
Also fixes the underlying ambiguity flagged in the issue discussion:
cuOptGetNumConstraints/CUOPT_ATTR_NUM_CONSTRAINTSpreviouslyreported linear constraints only; they now report linear + quadratic
constraints combined. Added a new
CUOPT_ATTR_NUM_QUADRATIC_CONSTRAINTSattribute so callers can still recover the quadratic-only count.
