Re: [Boost-users] How to delete all vertices and edges in BGL

Hi, The clear() function did the trick for me. I am using vecS for OutEdgeList and VertexList. I guess using listS would have been better in this case. The list would not have caused the iterator problem. Thanks for your help. Regards, Abhijit Deshmukh On 7/12/05, Jeremy Graham Siek wrote:

Hi Guys,

The major problem here is that you shouldn't be dereferencing vertices(databaseGraph).second, because it is a past-the-end iterator. You could rewrite the loop as:

while (vertices(databaseGraph).first != vertices(databaseGraph).second) { b = *vertices(databaseGraph).first; clear_vertex(b, databaseGraph); remove_vertex(b, databaseGraph); }

But the above loop could also have problems due to vertex iterator invalidation caused by remove_vertex... it depends on the graph used.

Can you let me know what is the correct way of deleting all edges and vertices in a mutable property undirected graph.

The easy way is just "databaseGraph.clear()"

Yep.
