Hi,

i would like to know why it is, that there is no documentation about

boost/graph/graph_utility.hpp

Functions like 'print_graph' or 'print_edges' are used quite often in the examples, for instance here

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/libs/graph/doc/filtered_graph.html

For a newbie, as i am, it is always confusing to have to deal with undocumented functions.

How should i start in such a case. I finally did something like

find ./ | xargs grep print_edges

inside of my boost directory. Are there any other undocumented functions within the Boost Graph Library?

There are a bunch, mostly from things being put in and then people forgetting to document them. Examples should not be using undocumented functions, though. -- Jeremiah Willcock
