Detailed Description

Context class.

It provides a very similar functionality than the Traversal classes. The main difference is Context returns a resulting collection whereas Traversal provides an iterator behaviour.

Check out the 'Algorithms' section in the SPARKSEE User Manual for more details on this.

Method Documentation

- (void) addAllEdgeTypes: (enum STSEdgesDirection)  d

Allows for traversing all edge types of the graph.

Parameters
d[in] Edge direction.
- (void) addEdgeType: (int)  t
d: (enum STSEdgesDirection)  d 

Allows for traversing edges of the given type.

Parameters
t[in] Edge type.
d[in] Edge direction.
- (void) addNodeType: (int)  t

Allows for traversing nodes of the given type.

Parameters
tnull
- (void) close

Closes the Context instance.

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

- (STSObjects*) compute

Gets the resulting collection of nodes.

Returns
The resulting collection of nodes.
+ (STSObjects*) computeWithArguments: (STSSession *)  session
node: (long long)  node
nodeTypes: (STSTypeList *)  nodeTypes
edgeTypes: (STSTypeList *)  edgeTypes
dir: (enum STSEdgesDirection)  dir
maxhops: (int)  maxhops
include: (BOOL)  include 

Helper method to easily compute a context from a node.

Parameters
session[in] Session to get the graph from and perform operation.
node[in] Node to start traversal from.
nodeTypes[in] Allowed node type list. NULL means all node types are allowed.
edgeTypes[in] Allowed edge type list. NULL means all edge types are allowed.
dir[in] Allowed direction for the allowed edge types.
maxhops[in] The maximum hops restriction. It must be positive or zero. Zero, the default value, means unlimited.
include[in] If TRUE, the resulting collection will include those nodes at distance less or equal than the given one, otherwise it will just include those nodes at distance equal than the given one. This parameter just makes sense if maxhops is different from 0; in that case it includes all nodes no matters the distance.
Returns
Returns an Objects with the computed context of a node.
- (void) excludeEdges: (STSObjects *)  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.
- (void) excludeNodes: (STSObjects *)  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.
- (id) initWithSession: (STSSession *)  session
node: (long long)  node 

Creates a new instance.

Parameters
session[in] Session to get the graph from and perform operation.
node[in] Node to start traversal from.
- (void) setMaximumHops: (int)  maxhops
include: (BOOL)  include 

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.
include[in] If TRUE, the resulting collection will include those nodes at distance less or equal than the given one, otherwise it will just include those nodes at distance equal than the given one. This parameter just makes sense if maxhops is different from 0; in that case it includes all nodes no matters the distance.
