Hi,
My graph is growing as the search progress so it is an implicit graph
and I understand I have to use the _no_init version (because the doc say
so). Why can I just the version with the init? Because if I use the
no_init version I need to init the properties map somehow.
I guess the moment the make the graph grows is while visitor does
examine_vertex.
I understand how I can add vertex to the graph, but how should I proceed
for the properties map?
Should I destroy and recreate new one (with the correct size) each time?
Anybody have a working example of the a* working on a implicit graph?
Thank you
Damien
