Hi all, are there still people who want to use the LEDA adapter in the Graph library? Back in 2007, I contributed adapters for some property maps. The checkin unfortunately introduced a typo (let's call it a transmission error ...) which is still there. So apparently no-one used it since then?! There also have been some discussions on removing the support, and patch requests were denied due to a lack of maintainer ... If there is _any_ interest in still maintaining leda_graph.hpp, I'd do it, as Douglas had already offered to me in 2007. I have more time and a better understanding now, and I'd really like to dive a bit more into Boost development. Besides, there apparently now is a free (as in beer) version of LEDA available, which should facilitate more widespread testing. Regards, Jens

LEDA may not be dead but it smells funny. LEDA is child of a time when the STL was still in its infancy. Thus, it always seemed quite unnatural (to me) to write C++ code that uses both LEDA and Boost or the STL. There has not been a new LEDA release since two years or so. May be there is a need for the LEDA adapter for some legacy code, but I think one sould remove it on a long therm perspective.

If you send a patch, I am willing to put it in. People haven't responded to the bug reports that were submitted, so I also assumed nobody was interested. -- Jeremiah Willcock

OK, I'll work on making it up-to-date with the latest (free) LEDA version and make the tests pass, and send respective patches to you. But I guess I'll need some support, e.g. with the tests (see other thread). Best regards, Jens

Please see attached patch.
Changes:
* header paths updated to LEDA 6.3 * fixed missing > lost in a previous commit
That is now applied to the trunk. Thank you. -- Jeremiah Willcock
