Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`addPhaseLifecycleListener(PhaseLifecycleListener<Solution_> phaseLifecycleListener)`	Add a `PhaseLifecycleListener` that is only notified of the `phase` and the `PhaseLifecycleListener.stepStarted(AbstractStepScope)` step} starting/ending events from this phase (and the `SolverLifecycleListener.solvingStarted(SolverScope)` solving} events too of course).
`void`	`removePhaseLifecycleListener(PhaseLifecycleListener<Solution_> phaseLifecycleListener)`
`void`	`setSolverPhaseLifecycleSupport(PhaseLifecycleSupport<Solution_> solverPhaseLifecycleSupport)`	Used to make `AbstractSolver.addPhaseLifecycleListener(PhaseLifecycleListener)` work.
`void`	`solve(SolverScope<Solution_> solverScope)`

  - setSolverPhaseLifecycleSupport
```
void setSolverPhaseLifecycleSupport(PhaseLifecycleSupport<Solution_> solverPhaseLifecycleSupport)
```
    Used to make AbstractSolver.addPhaseLifecycleListener(PhaseLifecycleListener) work.
    
    Parameters:
    
    solverPhaseLifecycleSupport - never null
  - addPhaseLifecycleListener
```
void addPhaseLifecycleListener(PhaseLifecycleListener<Solution_> phaseLifecycleListener)
```
    Add a PhaseLifecycleListener that is only notified of the phase and the PhaseLifecycleListener.stepStarted(AbstractStepScope) step} starting/ending events from this phase (and the SolverLifecycleListener.solvingStarted(SolverScope) solving} events too of course).
    To get notified for all phases, use AbstractSolver.addPhaseLifecycleListener(PhaseLifecycleListener) instead.
    
    Parameters:
    
    phaseLifecycleListener - never null
  - removePhaseLifecycleListener
```
void removePhaseLifecycleListener(PhaseLifecycleListener<Solution_> phaseLifecycleListener)
```
    Parameters:
    
    phaseLifecycleListener - never null

void solve(SolverScope<Solution_> solverScope)
