In a paper by Teo and Jennings, a constraint transcription is used together with the concept of control parametrisation to devise a computational algorithm for solving a class of optimal control problems involving terminal and continuous state constraints of inequality type. The aim of this paper is to extend the results to a more general class of constrained optimal control problems, where the problem is also subject to terminal equality state constraints. For illustration, a numerical example is included.
