Member Function Documentation

AddAllEdgeTypes()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.AddAllEdgeTypes

(

com.sparsity.sparksee.gdb.EdgesDirection

dir

)

Allows for traversing all edge types of the graph.

Parameters

dir	[in] Edge direction.

AddEdgeType()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.AddEdgeType	(	int	type,
		com.sparsity.sparksee.gdb.EdgesDirection	dir )

Allows for traversing edges of the given type.

Parameters

type	[in] Edge type.
dir	[in] Edge direction.

AddNodeType()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.AddNodeType

(

int

type

)

Allows for traversing nodes of the given type.

Parameters

type

null

Close()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.ShortestPath.Close ( )

inherited

Closes the ShortestPath instance.

It must be called to ensure the integrity of all data.

ExcludeEdges()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.ExcludeEdges

(

com.sparsity.sparksee.gdb.Objects

edges

)

Set which edges can't be used.

This will replace any previously specified set of excluded edges. Should only be used to exclude the usage of specific edges from allowed edge types because it's less efficient than not allowing an edge type.

Parameters

edges

[in] A set of edge identifiers that must be kept intact until the destruction of the class.

ExcludeNodes()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.ExcludeNodes

(

com.sparsity.sparksee.gdb.Objects

nodes

)

Set which nodes can't be used.

This will replace any previously specified set of excluded nodes. Should only be used to exclude the usage of specific nodes from allowed node types because it's less efficient than not allowing a node type.

Parameters

nodes

[in] A set of node identifiers that must be kept intact until the destruction of the class.

GetCost()

double com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.GetCost

(

)

Gets the cost of the shortest path.

The cost for unweighted algorithms is the number of hops of the shortest path. For weighted algoritms, the cost is the sum of the costs of the edges of the shortest path.

Returns

The cost of the shortest path.

GetPathAsEdges()

com.sparsity.sparksee.gdb.OIDList com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.GetPathAsEdges

(

)

Gets the shortest path between the source node and the destination node as an ordered set of edges.

Returns

Ordered set of edge identifiers.

GetPathAsNodes()

com.sparsity.sparksee.gdb.OIDList com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.GetPathAsNodes

(

)

Gets the shortest path between the source node and the destination node as an ordered set of nodes.

Returns

Ordered set of node identifiers.

IsClosed()

boolean com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.ShortestPath.IsClosed ( )

inherited

Gets if ShortestPath instance has been closed or not.

See also

Close()

Returns

TRUE if the ShortestPath instance has been closed, FALSE otherwise.

Run()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.Run

(

)

Runs the algorithm.

This method can only be called once.

SetMaximumHops()

void com.sparsity.sparksee.algorithms.SinglePairShortestPath.SetMaximumHops

(

int

maxhops

)

Sets the maximum hops restriction.

All paths longer than the maximum hops restriction will be ignored.

Parameters

maxhops

[in] The maximum hops restriction. It must be positive or zero. Zero, the default value, means unlimited.
