BGL: ColorMap for depth_first_search
by Christian Sturz 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hi, I want to use the depth_first_search algorithm. Since I need the DFS version where a start vertex is specified, I also have to define a ColorMap. That's the function I want to use: template <class Graph, class DFSVisitor, class ColorMap> void depth_first_search(const Graph& g, DFSVisitor vis, ColorMap color, typename graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor start) However, I'm not able to define a working ColorMap. Since the map is irrelevant for me, the … [View More]

Linking problem with read_graphviz
by Michaela Kedikova 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hello, I'm new to boost(I'm working with boost_1_34_1) and I have a problem with read_graphviz. I'm working with MSVC 8. I've already built all external libraries using bjam and link them to my project. I also built libbgl-viz.lib, which contains all the source files in libs/graph/src.(As it was suggested in a thread) But I still have a link-error when I try to compile the graphviz.cpp example. I've searched in the mailing-list for solutions of this problem, but I didn't find anything, which … [View More]helped me. Now I hope that somebody could give me a hint, what the problem may be. (My suggestion is, whether there is a missing object in a library or there are some difficulties between boost1_34_1 and MSVC 8.0). I post the error message below: 1>test_graphviz.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "void __cdecl boost::read_graphviz(class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class

betweenness centrality
by ivanballatore＠libero.it 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hi, i'm an italian developper and i have a question about the function brandes_betweenness_centrality. I would know if it's possbile to run brandes_betweenness_centrality only on a subset of nodes of a graph, because the execution of the function on the entire graph is too long. I want to calculate the betweenness approximation starting from the value computed for this subset of vetexes. Sorry for my english(i'm italian...).

subgraph with vertex lists
by Boris Lau 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hello, I'm new to boost and a bit confused about how to choose the vertex list type. My graph has around 50.000, and will be pruned down to roughly 500, so I use clear_vertex and remove_vertex a lot. According to http://www.boost.org/libs/graph/doc/adjacency_list.html, this works well only with VL=listS, otherwise I cannot safely remove vertices. Is that true? Ok, let's assume for now I need to use VL=listS in order to be able to safely remove vertices. How can I use the subgraph adaptor? It … [View More]

fusion library not in boost 1.34.1?
by Robert Dailey 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hi, I've been working out of the development branch for boost for a while and I always took for granted that fusion was part of the library. However, after downgrading back to 1.34.1, I notice it isn't in there. Is there a reason for this? How do I go about downloading a version of fusion that will work with 1.34.1? Thanks.

Building boost 1.34.1 with MSVC 8 (64-bit)

Hello, I hope John Maddock is reading this as he had some knowledge of the Intel compiler problem. Similar to the thread quoted below, I am getting the "Windows cannot open this file" dialog when trying to build boost using VC8 as 64-bit. (Doesn't have /this/ problem when I don't set address-model=64 or use the VC7.1 x86 compiler for 32-bit builds.) This is with boost-jam-3.1.16-1-ntx86.

[call_traits] call_traits<enum>::param_type is const reference
by Sergei Politov 23 Feb '08

As I can see, call_traits for enum types defines param_type as const reference. I cannot find a reason for it. It is possible to use is_enum to determine whether type is enum or not, and define param_type for enums similar to value_type. Could anybody describe the situation?

Re: [Boost-users] All orderings of boost::graph::topological_sort()

At the moment my input consists of about 32 vertices, although I'd like not to count on it to remain this way. I can probably assume the number of nodes will remain in the order of magnitude of hundreds … [View More]or less. I'm talking about a schedule generating program for an undergraduate student. It generates a schedule for a semester for a student, given some constraints (time of day, courses done already and so on) and the course dependency (this course must not be taken before that one and so on). I would very much like to support other complexities such as some courses may be taken while a certain dependent is being taken, while others must be taken before any of their dependents may be taken. But I leave such complexities as worries for future versions. For the time being, all I want is to be able to generate all the different schedules (i.e., all various topo sorts). Indeed, something like std::next_permutation() would make a lot of sense. It would be fast and flexible. My next task would then be to find an algorithm to quickly estimate the number of different orderings. :) > For an input small enough that the > set of feasible orderings will fit in memory I would simply generate all > permutations and screen for feasibility rather than attempting to create > an enumeration algorithm. I don't follow. Can I change the ordering of vertices without ruining the graph's integrity? How?

That is the reason for my query on my OP in the first place. I don't quite understand how manipulate the input vertices of the depth_first_search(). For what I understand, depth_first_search() works on a set of start vertices (which have no incoming edges), and for each of these the algorith dives in to the depth of the vertex's tree. Permuting the order of these vertices would give me advance me a lot, but I don't know how to do that. > If there is enough interest to justify adding an efficient deterministic > enumerator for poset orders I'll write one. Graph-theoretical > algorithms are a fun way to spend the weekend :-) I personally think the topological_sort() algorithm begs for an algorithm that would allow iterating over all unique orderings. As I stated above, I think something of the sort of std::next_permutation() would make a lot of sense, especially because graph algorithms, and finding all different toposorts in particular, tend to be expensive operations. Simply asking for one ordering at a time gives a lot of flexibility to the user with the added benefit of efficiency and integration with the STL's way of doing things. -- Matan [View Less]
