  2. Add all the JAR files that are in the binaries directory to the classpath, except for the examples/binaries/optaplanner-examples-7.67.0.Final-redhat-00024.jar file.
  3. Add the Java source directory src/main/java and the Java resources directory src/main/resources, located under the rhpam-7.13.5-planner-engine/examples/sources/ directory.

  4. Create a run configuration:

    • Main class: org.optaplanner.examples.app.OptaPlannerExamplesApp
    • VM parameters (optional): -Xmx512M -server -Dorg.optaplanner.examples.dataDir=examples/sources/data
    • Working directory: examples/sources
