init

Method Detail

init

void init(Graph g)

Has to be invoked before the data structure can be used. The data structure may only be used with nodes belonging to the given graph. After init() all edges map to null.

Specified by:

init in interface Initializable

Parameters:

g - the graph for which the EdgeMap shall be defined.

put

Val put(Edge e,
        Val newVal)

Set the value of an edge

Parameters:

e - the edge for which the value shall be set

newVal - the new value of the edge

Returns:

the old value of the edge (null if no value has been set)
