Chapter 4. Downloading Red Hat build of OptaPlanner examples

Procedure

1. To run the examples, in the rhdm-7.12.0-planner-engine/examples directory enter one of the following commands:

   Linux or Mac:

   $ ./runExamples.sh

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   Windows:

   $ runExamples.bat

   Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

   The OptaPlanner Examples window opens.

2. Select an example to run that example.

Procedure

1. Open the OptaPlanner examples as a new project:

   1. For IntelliJ or Netbeans, open examples/sources/pom.xml as the new project. The Maven integration guides you through the rest of the installation. Skip the rest of the steps in this procedure.
   2. For Eclipse, open a new project for the /examples/binaries directory, located under the rhdm-7.12.0-planner-engine directory.
2. Add all the JAR files that are in the binaries directory to the classpath, except for the examples/binaries/optaplanner-examples-7.59.0.Final-redhat-00006.jar file.
3. Add the Java source directory src/main/java and the Java resources directory src/main/resources, located under the rhdm-7.12.0-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
5. Run the run configuration.
