PartitionSolver

public PartitionSolver(BestSolutionRecaller<Solution_> bestSolutionRecaller,
 Termination<Solution_> termination,
 List<Phase<Solution_>> phaseList,
 SolverScope<Solution_> solverScope)

Method Details

isSolving

public boolean isSolving()

Description copied from interface: Solver

This method is thread-safe.

Returns:

true if the Solver.solve(Solution_) method is still running.

terminateEarly

public boolean terminateEarly()

Description copied from interface: Solver

Notifies the solver that it should stop at its earliest convenience. This method returns immediately, but it takes an undetermined time for the Solver.solve(Solution_) to actually return.

If the solver is running in daemon mode, this is the only way to terminate it normally.

This method is thread-safe. It can only be called from a different thread because the original thread is still calling Solver.solve(Object).

Returns:

true if successful, false if was already terminating or terminated

See Also:

• Solver.isTerminateEarly()
• Future.cancel(boolean)

isTerminateEarly

public boolean isTerminateEarly()

Description copied from interface: Solver

This method is thread-safe.

Returns:

true if terminateEarly has been called since the Solver started.

See Also:

• Future.isCancelled()

addProblemFactChange

public boolean addProblemFactChange(ProblemFactChange<Solution_> problemFactChange)

Description copied from interface: Solver

This method is deprecated. Schedules a ProblemFactChange to be processed.

As a side-effect, this restarts the Solver, effectively resetting all terminations, but not Solver.terminateEarly().

This method is thread-safe. Follows specifications of BlockingQueue.add(Object) with by default a capacity of Integer.MAX_VALUE.

Parameters:

problemFactChange - never null

Returns:

true (as specified by Collection.add(E))

See Also:

• Solver.addProblemFactChanges(List)

addProblemFactChanges

public boolean addProblemFactChanges(List<ProblemFactChange<Solution_>> problemFactChanges)

Description copied from interface: Solver

This method is deprecated. Schedules multiple ProblemFactChanges to be processed.

As a side-effect, this restarts the Solver, effectively resetting all terminations, but not Solver.terminateEarly().

This method is thread-safe. Follows specifications of Collection.addAll(Collection) with by default a capacity of Integer.MAX_VALUE.

Parameters:

problemFactChanges - never null

Returns:

true (as specified by Collection.add(E))

See Also:

• Solver.addProblemFactChange(ProblemFactChange)

addProblemChange

public void addProblemChange(ProblemChange<Solution_> problemChange)

Description copied from interface: Solver

Schedules a ProblemChange to be processed.

As a side effect, this restarts the Solver, effectively resetting all Terminations, but not Solver.terminateEarly().

This method is thread-safe. Follows specifications of BlockingQueue.add(Object) with by default a capacity of Integer.MAX_VALUE.

To learn more about problem change semantics, please refer to the ProblemChange Javadoc.

Parameters:

problemChange - never null

See Also:

• Solver.addProblemChanges(List)

addProblemChanges

public void addProblemChanges(List<ProblemChange<Solution_>> problemChangeList)

Description copied from interface: Solver

Schedules multiple ProblemChanges to be processed.

As a side effect, this restarts the Solver, effectively resetting all Terminations, but not Solver.terminateEarly().

This method is thread-safe. Follows specifications of BlockingQueue.add(Object) with by default a capacity of Integer.MAX_VALUE.

To learn more about problem change semantics, please refer to the ProblemChange Javadoc.

Parameters:

problemChangeList - never null

See Also:

• Solver.addProblemChange(ProblemChange)

isEveryProblemChangeProcessed

public boolean isEveryProblemChangeProcessed()

Description copied from interface: Solver

Checks if all scheduled ProblemChanges have been processed.

This method is thread-safe.

Returns:

true if there are no ProblemChanges left to do

isEveryProblemFactChangeProcessed

public boolean isEveryProblemFactChangeProcessed()

Description copied from interface: Solver

This method is deprecated. Checks if all scheduled ProblemFactChanges have been processed.

This method is thread-safe.

Returns:

true if there are no ProblemFactChanges left to do

solve

public Solution_ solve(Solution_ problem)

Description copied from interface: Solver

Solves the planning problem and returns the best solution encountered (which might or might not be optimal, feasible or even initialized).

It can take seconds, minutes, even hours or days before this method returns, depending on the termination configuration. To terminate a Solver early, call Solver.terminateEarly().

Parameters:

problem - never null, a PlanningSolution, usually its planning variables are uninitialized

Returns:

never null, but it can return the original, uninitialized PlanningSolution with a null Score.

• Solver.terminateEarly()

solvingStarted

Overrides:

getScoreCalculationCount

public long getScoreCalculationCount()
