Adds the specified edge to the graph, including its vertices if not already included.

Parameters:

edge - edge to add
Returns:

                                          V sourceVertex,

g - the graph for which the specified edge to be added.
sourceVertex - source vertex of the edge.
targetVertex - target vertex of the edge.
weight - weight of the edge.

addGraph

public static <V,E> boolean addGraph(Graph<? super V,? super E> destination,
                                     Graph<V,E> source)
Adds all the vertices and all the edges of the specified source graph to the specified destination graph. First all vertices of the source graph are added to the destination graph. Then every edge of the source graph is added to the destination graph. This method returns true if the destination graph has been modified as a result of this operation, otherwise it returns false.

The behavior of this operation is undefined if any of the specified graphs is modified while operation is in progress.

Parameters:
destination - the graph to which vertices and edges are added.
source - the graph used as source for vertices and edges to add.
Returns:
true if and only if the destination graph has been changed as a result of this operation.

addGraphReversed

public static <V,E> void addGraphReversed(DirectedGraph<? super V,? super E> destination,
                                          DirectedGraph<V,E> source)
Adds all the vertices and all the edges of the specified source digraph to the specified destination digraph, reversing all of the edges. If you want to do this as a linked view of the source graph (rather than by copying to a destination graph), use EdgeReversedGraph instead.

The behavior of this operation is undefined if any of the specified graphs is modified while operation is in progress.

Parameters:
destination - the graph to which vertices and edges are added.
source - the graph used as source for vertices and edges to add.

EdgeReversedGraph

addAllEdges

public static <V,E> boolean addAllEdges(Graph<? super V,? super E> destination,
                                        Graph<V,E> source,
                                        java.util.Collection<? extends E> edges)
Adds a subset of the edges of the specified source graph to the specified destination graph. The behavior of this operation is undefined if either of the graphs is modified while the operation is in progress. addEdgeWithVertices(org.jgrapht.Graph, V, V) is used for the transfer, so source vertexes will be added automatically to the target graph.

Parameters:
destination - the graph to which edges are to be added
source - the graph used as a source for edges to add
edges - the edges to be added
Returns:
true if this graph changed as a result of the call

addAllVertices

public static <V,E> boolean addAllVertices(Graph<? super V,? super E> destination,
                                           java.util.Collection<? extends V> vertices)
Adds all of the specified vertices to the destination graph. The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified vertex collection is modified while the operation is in progress. This method will invoke the Graph.addVertex(Object) method.

Parameters:
destination - the graph to which edges are to be added
vertices - the vertices to be added to the graph.
Returns:
true if graph changed as a result of the call
Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified vertices contains one or more null vertices, or if the specified vertex collection is null.

Graph.addVertex(Object)

neighborListOf

Returns:
a list of the vertices that are the neighbors of the specified vertex.

Returns:
a list of the vertices that are the direct predecessors of the specified vertex.

Returns:
a list of the vertices that are the direct successors of the specified vertex.

undirectedGraph

public static <V,E> UndirectedGraph<V,E> undirectedGraph(Graph<V,E> g)
Returns an undirected view of the specified graph. If the specified graph is directed, returns an undirected view of it. If the specified graph is already undirected, just returns it.

Parameters:
g - the graph for which an undirected view is to be returned.
Returns:
an undirected view of the specified graph, if it is directed, or or the specified graph itself if it is already undirected.
