Re: [Boost-users] [graph][BGL] Why can not I use edge_index_t?

Hello Jeremiah, I am a little confused with the property maps, and I am trying different things. What I really want is to define some properties for the edges on a mutable graph. I am using a distributed adjacency list. I tried with distributed property maps, with iterator property maps and now I am trying defining internal properties. What do you recommend for my case? I want to add and remove edges and vertices, and the properties should be synchronized between processors. Thanks, El 13/03/13 14:54, Jeremiah Willcock escribió:

Hello,

I want to create an iterator_property_map to iterate over the edges, but I cannot declare the following: typedef property_map::const_type EdgeIndexMap; The compilation gives me an error.

I am using an adjacency list with vertex and edge properties. I can use a vertex_index_t, so I assumed that I could use the equivalent for edges. But I don't understand why I can't.

This is my adjacency list: typedef boost::adjacency_list, bidirectionalS, property, EdgeProperties> Graph;

Have anyone deal with something similar?

None of the adjacency_list graph types provides edge_index_t as a built-in property map as far as I know. If you need that map, you will need to define it as an internal property and fill it in yourself (and update it if/when your graph changes). If you just need to use it for property maps, internal properties are much easier. If you are not mutating your graph's structure, the compressed_sparse_row_graph type provides an edge_index_t property automatically as well.
