Package jlink.flowchart.graph

Collection of classes to form a model of a graph structure.

Description

Class Summary

JLEdge
JLEdgeSet	The complete set of edges used in a JLGraph is modelled using this class.
JLGraph	Implementaion of a graph structure.
JLVertex
JLVertexPair
JLVertexSet	The complete set of vertices used in a JLGraph is modelled using this class.

Exception Summary

DuplicateJLEdgeException
DuplicateJLVertexException	Occasionally when using methods that add a JLVertex to a JLGraph (which is the same as adding a JLVertex to inside a JLVertexSet), the calling program may have accidentally duplicated an addition of a vertex.
IncompleteJLEdgeException

Package jlink.flowchart.graph Description

Collection of classes to form a model of a graph structure. The resultant graph structure can be used by itself for mathematical analysis using classes from jlink.flowchart.graph.maths, or it can be passed as a model to JLFlowchart which will render a flowchart and display it. If jlink.flowchart.JLFlowchart needs to apply intelligent formatting to the graph, it can do so using classes from jlink.flowchart.graph.layout. These classes implement a series of algorithms to neatly draw out graphs.

Users of JLink should note a few things about this document. As JLink represents a mathematical structure, efforts have been made to use class names that reflect correct mathematical terminology and yet are meaningful to readers of the API. As such, the following classes and mathematical terms in this package are used interchangeably:

• "graph/digraph" and JLGraph
• "vertex" and JLVertex
• "edge" and JLEdge
• "vertex set" and JLVertexSet
• "edge set" and JLEdgeSet

In general, classes in JLink start with a "JL" to reflect that it belongs to the JLink library.
