filtered_graph&lt;Graph, EdgePredicate, VertexPredicate&gt;
</pre>
</H1>
<P>
The <tt>filtered_graph</tt> class template is an adaptor that creates
a filtered view of a graph. The predicate function objects determine
which edges and vertices of the original graph will show up in the
filtered graph. If the edge predicate returns <tt>true</tt> for an
edge then it shows up in the filtered graph, and if the predicate
returns <tt>false</tt> then the edge does not appear in the filtered
graph. Likewise for vertices. The <tt>filtered_graph</tt> class does
not create a copy of the original graph, but uses a reference to the
original graph. The lifetime of the original graph must extend past
any use of the filtered graph. The filtered graph does not change the
structure of the original graph, though vertex and edge properties of
the original graph can be changed through property maps of the
filtered graph. Vertex and edge descriptors of the filtered graph are
the same as, and interchangeable with, the vertex and edge descriptors
of the original graph.
<P>The <a href="#num_vertices"><tt>num_vertices</tt></a> and <a
href="#num_edges"><tt>num_edges</tt></a> functions do not filter
before returning results, so they return the number of vertices or
edges in the underlying graph, unfiltered <a href="#2">[2]</a>.
<H3>Example</H3>
<P>
In this example we will filter a graph's edges based on edge
weight. We will keep all edges with positive edge weight.
First, we create a predicate function object.
<PRE>
template &lt;typename EdgeWeightMap&gt;
struct positive_edge_weight {
positive_edge_weight() { }
positive_edge_weight(EdgeWeightMap weight) : m_weight(weight) { }
template &lt;typename Edge&gt;
bool operator()(const Edge& e) const {
return 0 &lt; get(m_weight, e);
}
EdgeWeightMap m_weight;
};
</PRE>
Now we create a graph and print out the filtered graph.
<pre>
int main()
{
using namespace boost;
typedef adjacency_list&lt;vecS, vecS, directedS,
no_property, property&lt;edge_weight_t, int&gt; &gt; Graph;
typedef property_map&lt;Graph, edge_weight_t&gt;::type EdgeWeightMap;
enum { A, B, C, D, E, N };
const char* name = "ABCDE";
Graph g(N);
add_edge(A, B, 2, g);
add_edge(A, C, 0, g);
add_edge(C, D, 1, g);
add_edge(C, E, 0, g);
add_edge(D, B, 3, g);
add_edge(E, C, 0, g);
positive_edge_weight&lt;EdgeWeightMap&gt; filter(get(edge_weight, g));
filtered_graph&lt;Graph, positive_edge_weight&lt;EdgeWeightMap&gt; &gt;
fg(g, filter);
std::cout &lt;&lt; "filtered edge set: ";
print_edges(fg, name);
std::cout &lt;&lt; "filtered out-edges:" &lt;&lt; std::endl;
print_graph(fg, name);
return 0;
}
</pre>
The output is:
<PRE>
filtered edge set: (A,B) (C,D) (D,B)
filtered out-edges:
A --> B
B -->
C --> D
D --> B
E -->
</PRE>

This depends on the underlying graph type. If the underlying
<tt>Graph</tt> type models <a

filtered graph. If the underlying <tt>Graph</tt> type models fewer or
smaller concepts than these, then so does the filtered graph.

</pre>
Returns an iterator-range providing access to the out-edges of vertex
<tt>u</tt> in graph <tt>g</tt>. If the graph is undirected, this
iterator-range provides access to all edges incident on vertex
<tt>u</tt>. For both directed and undirected graphs, for an out-edge
<tt>e</tt>, <tt>source(e, g) == u</tt> and <tt>target(e, g) == v</tt>
where <tt>v</tt> is a vertex adjacent to <tt>u</tt>.

</pre>
Returns an iterator-range providing access to the in-edges of vertex
<tt>v</tt> in graph <tt>g</tt>. For an in-edge <tt>e</tt>,

vertex <tt>u</tt> that is adjacent to <tt>v</tt>, whether the graph is
directed or undirected.

edge_range(vertex_descriptor u, vertex_descriptor v,
const filtered_graph&amp; g)
</pre>
Returns a pair of out-edge iterators that give the range for all the
parallel edges from <tt>u</tt> to <tt>v</tt>. This function only works
when the underlying graph supports <tt>edge_range</tt>, which requires
that it sorts its out edges according to target vertex and allows
parallel edges. The <tt>adjacency_list</tt> class with
<tt>OutEdgeList=multisetS</tt> is an example of such a graph.
<hr>
<h4>Property Map Access</h4>

template &lt;class <a href="./PropertyTag.html">PropertyTag</a>&gt;
property_map&lt;filtered_graph, Tag&gt;::const_type
get(PropertyTag, const filtered_graph&amp; g)
</pre>
Returns the property map object for the vertex property specified by
<TT>PropertyTag</TT>. The <TT>PropertyTag</TT> must match one of the
properties specified in the graph's <TT>VertexProperty</TT> template
argument.
<hr>
<pre>
template &lt;class <a href="./PropertyTag.html">PropertyTag</a>, class X&gt;
typename property_traits&lt;property_map&lt;filtered_graph, PropertyTag&gt;::const_type&gt::value_type
get(PropertyTag, const filtered_graph&amp; g, X x)
</pre>
This returns the property value for <tt>x</tt>, where <tt>x</tt> is either
a vertex or edge descriptor.
<hr>
<pre>
template &lt;class <a href="./PropertyTag.html">PropertyTag</a>, class X, class Value&gt;
void
put(PropertyTag, const filtered_graph&amp; g, X x, const Value& value)
</pre>
This sets the property value for <tt>x</tt> to
<tt>value</tt>. <tt>x</tt> is either a vertex or edge descriptor.
<tt>Value</tt> must be convertible to
<tt>typename property_traits&lt;property_map&lt;filtered_graph, PropertyTag&gt;::type&gt::value_type</tt>

<h3>Notes</h3>
<p>
<a name="1">[1]</a> The reason for requiring <a
href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/DefaultConstructible.html">Default
Constructible</a> in the <tt>EdgePredicate</tt> and
<tt>VertexPredicate</tt> types is that these predicates are stored
by-value (for performance reasons) in the filter iterator adaptor, and
iterators are required to be Default Constructible by the C++
Standard.
<p> <a name="2">[2]</a> It would be nicer to return the number of
vertices (or edges) remaining after the filter has been applied, but
this has two problems. The first is that it would take longer to
calculate, and the second is that it would interact badly with the
underlying vertex/edge index mappings. The index mapping would no
longer fall in the range <tt>[0,num_vertices(g))</tt> (resp. <tt>[0,
num_edges(g))</tt>) which is assumed in many of the algorithms.
