## Class AbstractSolver<Solution_>

- java.lang.Object
- - org.optaplanner.core.impl.solver.AbstractSolver<Solution_>

- Type Parameters:
    `Solution_` - the solution type, the class with the `PlanningSolution` annotation
  All Implemented Interfaces:
    Solver<Solution_>
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    DefaultSolver, PartitionSolver

      public abstract class AbstractSolver<Solution_>
      extends Object
      implements Solver<Solution_>

  Common code between `DefaultSolver` and child solvers (such as `PartitionSolver`.

  Do not create a new child `Solver` to implement a new heuristic or metaheuristic, just use a new `Phase` for that.

  See Also:
    `Solver`, `DefaultSolver`
