Hello everyone,
I've been looking for some time at the documentation and I couldn't find a single way to obtain an inverse mapping for a property map. That is, given a property p, I would like to obtain a vertex descriptor v. It seems that the mapping is only in one direction. Is there a way to obtain the inverse mapping too? If so, what is the complexity associated with obtaining the vertex descriptor?
Hi Alejandro, Unless you explicitly set up an inverse property map, there's no way to invert a mapping using the property map interface. The only interface to retrieving anything from the property map is by key: get(map, key) (or map[key] if you're using an LValuePropertyMap). Regards, Aaron
