C++ Finder<VertexType, EdgeType>
Finder is a C++ template class for finding a vertex within a <A href="http://openwetware.org/wiki/User:CalebKennedy/LabeledGraph">LabeledGraph</A>.
Public methods:
| <A href="#const">Finder constructors & destructor</A> | methods to allocate, copy, and deallocate Pruners | |
| <A href="#oper">Finder operator</A> | overloaded pruning method | |
| <A href="#bktk">backtrack</A> | instantiate a <A href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backtracking">backtrack</A> | |
| <A href="#clear">clear</A> | set current pathlength equal to zero | |
| <A href="#svert">startVertex</A> | returns the start vertex |
<A name="const">Pruner constructors & destructor</A>
Pruner is an <A href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_(computer_science)#Categories_of_classes">abstract class</A>.
<A name="oper">Pruner operator</A>
virtual bool operator()(Vertex* const) = 0
The operator() is a <A href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_function">pure virtual function</A> that can be overloaded in classes that inherit from Pruner to define application- and user-specific pruning methods for depth-first traversals.
<A name="bktk">backtrack</A>
virtual void backtrack(Vertex<VertexType, EdgeType>* const) = 0
Backtrack decrements the current pathlength and declares the current vertex unvisited.
<A name="clear">clear</A>
virtual void clear(void)
<A name="svert">startVertex</A>
Vertex* startVertex(void) const
