Hi, I am wondering, if it is good style to throw an exception in the middle of a BGL algorithm, for example during BFS when I have found what I want. Or are there nicer ways to achive the same goal? Thanks in advance, andreas

Yes, this is the recommended way to abort a BGL algorithm such as BFS. Doug
