Class GraphBuilder<N>

  • Type Parameters:
    N - The most general node type this builder will support. This is normally Object unless it is constrained by using a method like nodeOrder(com.google.common.graph.ElementOrder<N1>), or the builder is constructed based on an existing Graph using from(Graph).

    @Beta
    @DoNotMock
    public final class GraphBuilder<N>
    extends java.lang.Object
    A builder for constructing instances of MutableGraph or ImmutableGraph with user-defined properties.

    A Graph built by this class has the following default properties:

    • does not allow self-loops
    • orders Graph.nodes() in the order in which the elements were added (insertion order)

    Graphs built by this class also guarantee that each collection-returning accessor returns a (live) unmodifiable view; see the external documentation for details.
