SelectionSorterWeightFactory (Timefold Solver core implementation 0.8.42 API)

Type Parameters:

Solution_ - the solution type, the class with the PlanningSolution annotation

T - the selection type

All Known Subinterfaces:

PlanningEntity.NullDifficultyWeightFactory, PlanningVariable.NullStrengthWeightFactory

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface SelectionSorterWeightFactory<Solution_,T>
```
Creates a weight to decide the order of a collections of selections (a selection is a PlanningEntity, a planningValue, a Move or a Selector). The selections are then sorted by their weight, normally ascending unless it's configured descending.
Implementations are expected to be stateless. The solver may choose to reuse instances.
