Interface IndexGraphFactory

    GraphFactory<Integer,​Integer>, IntGraphFactory

    public interface IndexGraphFactory
    extends IntGraphFactory
    A factory for Index graphs.

    The factory can be used to create new empty graphs, with different options and capabilities. Few methods are available to optimize the graph implementation choice. The factory can also be used to create a copy of an existing graphs, with the same vertices and edges, with/without copying the vertices/edges weights.

    Both the graph factory and IndexGraphBuilder are used to create new graphs. The difference is that vertices and edges can be added to the builder, which is then used to construct non empty graphs, while the factory is only used to choose a graph implementation and create an empty graph.

    This interface is a specific version of IntGraphFactory for IndexGraph.

      • newCopyOf

        default IndexGraph newCopyOf​(Graph<Integer,​Integer> g)
        Description copied from interface: GraphFactory
        Create a copy of a given graph, with the same vertices and edges, without copying weights.

        An identical copy of the given graph will be created, with the same vertices and edges, without copying the vertices/edges weights. The returned Graph will always be mutable, with no side affects on the original graph.

        Differing from Graph.copy(), the capabilities of the new graph are determined by the factory configuration, rather than copied from the given graph. Note for example that if the factory chooses to use an implementation that does not support self edges (if GraphFactory.allowSelfEdges(boolean) was not called with true), attempting to create a copy of a graph that does contains self edges will result in an exception.

        For an immutable copy of a graph, see GraphFactory.newImmutableCopyOf(Graph, boolean, boolean).

      • newBuilder

        IndexGraphBuilder newBuilder()
        Description copied from interface: GraphFactory
        Create a new graph builder with the factory parameters.

        The created builder can be used to add vertices and edges, and then build a (mutable or immutable) non empty graph, differing from the factory which only builds empty graphs. The capabilities such as un/directed, support of self edges, support of parallel edges, and hints such as expected number of vertices and edges, other hints, etc. are copied from the factory to the builder.

        default IndexGraphBuilder newBuilderCopyOf​(Graph<Integer,​Integer> g)
        Create a new graph builder with the factory parameters initialized with an existing graph vertices and edges, without copying the weights.

        If the given graph is directed, the new builder will build directed graphs, and similarly for undirected graphs.

      • setDirected

        IndexGraphFactory setDirected​(boolean directed)
        Description copied from interface: GraphFactory
        Determine if graphs built by this factory should be directed.

        Usually the factory will be created using either GraphFactory.directed() or GraphFactory.undirected(), and there will be no need to call this method. However, it is sometimes useful use the same factory to build both directed and undirected graphs, and this method can be used to change the factory configuration. For example, a factory can be passed to a random graph generator, which can generated both directed and undirected graphs, depending on the generator parameters.

        Specified by:
        setDirected in interface GraphFactory<Integer,​Integer>
        Specified by:
        setDirected in interface IntGraphFactory
        Parameters:
        directed - if true graphs built by this factory will be directed, else they will be undirected
        Returns:
        this factory
      • allowSelfEdges

        IndexGraphFactory allowSelfEdges​(boolean selfEdges)
        Description copied from interface: GraphFactory
        Determine if graphs built by this factory should be support self edges.

        By default, graphs built by this factory will not support self edges.

        Specified by:
        allowSelfEdges in interface GraphFactory<Integer,​Integer>
        Specified by:
        allowSelfEdges in interface IntGraphFactory
        Parameters:
        selfEdges - if true graphs built by this factory will support self edges, else they will not
        Returns:
        this factory
      • allowParallelEdges

        default IndexGraphFactory allowParallelEdges()
        Description copied from interface: GraphFactory
        Change the config of this factory so that the built graphs will support parallel edges.

        By default, graphs built by this factory will support parallel edges. The reason is that in order to enforce no parallel edges are added to the graph, an efficient lookup of edges (keyed by an edge's vertices) is required, which is an operation most graph algorithms do not use and therefore most implementations are not optimized for. See GraphFactory.Hint.FastEdgeLookup.

        allowParallelEdges in interface GraphFactory<Integer,​Integer>
        Specified by:
        allowParallelEdges in interface IntGraphFactory
        Returns:
        this factory

        By default, graphs built by this factory will support parallel edges.

        Description copied from interface: GraphFactory
        [TL;DR Don't call me!] Set an option.

        The builder might support different options to customize its implementation. These options never change the behavior of the algorithm, only its internal implementation. The possible options are not exposed as 'public' because they are not part of the API and may change in the future.

        These options are mainly for debug and benchmark purposes.

        setOption in interface GraphFactory<Integer,​Integer>
        Specified by:
        setOption in interface IntGraphFactory
