OptaPlanner benchmarking won't run

I'm trying to run an OptaPlanner benchmark with the following configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plannerBenchmark xmlns="https://www.optaplanner.org/xsd/benchmark" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

However, I get this error message:

I've tried many other benchmark configs including with <solverBenchmarkBluePrintType>CONSTRUCTION_HEURISTIC_WITH_AND_WITHOUT_LOCAL_SEARCH</solverBenchmarkBluePrintType> but none of them work either.

I had it working previously, but I went back to it after a number of changes and it no longer works.

I'm using a SimpleLongScore now instead of a SimpleScore and I'm wondering if that has anything to do with the error since before it wasn't throwing this exception.

Any ideas?

Edit #1:
I wish I could provide more code, but I really don't know what code to include.

The bizarre thing is that OptaPlanner runs just fine through mvn compile quarkus:dev, but when I run my benchmark app, from the main entry, it gives the errors as mentioned before, java.lang.IllegalStateException: The class (class java.lang.Long) should have a no-arg constructor to create a planning clone.

Here's my main:

    fun main(args: Array<String>) {
        val plannerBenchmarkFactory:PlannerBenchmarkFactory = PlannerBenchmarkFactory.createFromXmlResource("benchmarkBluePrintConfig.xml")
        val plannerBenchmark: PlannerBenchmark = plannerBenchmarkFactory.buildPlannerBenchmark()
        plannerBenchmark.benchmarkAndShowReportInBrowser()
    }

The solverConfig.xml can also be the same for both, but only the benchmark app throws the error. It's pretty odd to me.

Solution

  • I figured it out.

    In my Visit class I was using a @CustomShadowVariable:

        @DeepPlanningClone
    @CustomShadowVariable(
        variableListenerClass = ArrivalTimeUpdatingVariableListener::class,
        sources = [PlanningVariableReference(variableName = "previousStandstill")]
    )
    var arrivalTime: Long? = null

    Removing @DeepPlanningClone solved the problem.

    I have no idea why it runs fine when the SolverManager is @Inject'd as opposed to throwing the error when SolverConfig/SolverManager is created through the API (as it is in my Benchmark App).
