<PRE>
edge_list&lt;EdgeIterator, ValueType, DiffType&gt;
</PRE>
</H1>
<P>
The <TT>edge_list</TT> class is an adaptor that turns a pair of edge
iterators into a class that models <TT>EdgeListGraph</TT>. The
<TT>value_type</TT> of the edge iterator must be a <TT>std::pair</TT> (or
at least have <TT>first</TT> and <TT>second</TT> members). The
<TT>first_type</TT> and <TT>second_type</TT> of the pair must be the
same and they will be used for the graph's <TT>vertex_descriptor</TT>.
The <TT>ValueType</TT> and <TT>DiffType</TT> template parameters are only
needed if your compiler does not support partial
specialization. Otherwise they default to the correct types.
<P>
<H3>Example</H3>
<P>
Applying the Bellman-Ford shortest paths algorithm to an
<TT>edge_list</TT>.

<PRE>
enum { u, v, x, y, z, N };
char name[] = { 'u', 'v', 'x', 'y', 'z' };
typedef std::pair&lt;int,int&gt; E;
E edges[] = { E(u,y), E(u,x), E(u,v),
E(v,u),
E(x,y), E(x,v),
E(y,v), E(y,z),
E(z,u), E(z,x) };
int weight[] = { -4, 8, 5,
-2,
9, -3,
7, 2,
6, 7 };
typedef boost::edge_list&lt;E*&gt; Graph;
Graph g(edges, edges + sizeof(edges) / sizeof(E));
std::vector&lt;int&gt; distance(N, std::numeric_limits&lt;short&gt;::max());
std::vector&lt;int&gt; parent(N,-1);
distance[z] = 0;
parent[z] = z;
bool r = boost::bellman_ford_shortest_paths(g, int(N), weight,
distance.begin(),
parent.begin());
if (r)
for (int i = 0; i &lt; N; ++i)
std::cout &lt;&lt; name[i] &lt;&lt; ": " &lt;&lt; distance[i]
&lt;&lt; " " &lt;&lt; name[parent[i]] &lt;&lt; std::endl;
else
std::cout &lt;&lt; "negative cycle" &lt;&lt; std::endl;
</PRE>
The output is the distance from the root and the parent
of each vertex in the shortest paths tree.

v: 4 x

<hr>
<tt>boost::graph_traits&lt;edge_list&gt;::vertex_descriptor</tt>
<br><br>
The type for the vertex descriptors associated with the
<TT>edge_list</TT>. This will be the same type as
<TT>std::iterator_traits&lt;EdgeIterator&gt;::value_type::first_type</TT>.
<hr>
<tt>
boost::graph_traits&lt;edge_list&gt;::edge_descriptor
</tt>

The type for the edge descriptors associated with the
<TT>edge_list</TT>.
<hr>
<tt>
boost::graph_traits&lt;edge_list&gt;::edge_iterator
</tt>
<br><br>
The type for the iterators returned by <TT>edges()</TT>. The iterator
category of the <TT>edge_iterator</TT> will be the same as that of the
<TT>EdgeIterator</TT>.
<hr>
<h3>Member Functions</h3>
<hr>
<tt>
edge_list(EdgeIterator first, EdgeIterator last)
</tt>
<br><br>
Creates a graph object with <TT>n</TT> vertices and with the
