IEdge Methods

Executes the function method given by its name. Throws an exception if the method does not exists or the parameters are of wrong types.

Executes the procedure method given by its name. Throws an exception if the method does not exists or the parameters are of wrong types.

Creates a shallow clone of this edge. All attributes will be transfered to the new edge. The edge will not be associated to a graph, yet. So it will not have any assigned variables.

Creates a deep copy of this edge (i.e. (transient) class objects will be replicated). All attributes will be transfered to the new edge. The edge will not be associated to a graph, yet. So it will not have any assigned variables.

Returns the attribute with the given attribute name. If the attribute bearer (type) doesn't have an attribute with this name, a NullReferenceException is thrown.

Returns true, if the typed object is compatible to the given type

Returns whether this and that are deeply equal, which means the scalar attributes are equal, the container attributes are memberwise deeply equal, and object attributes are deeply equal. (If types are unequal the result is false.) Visited objects are/have to be stored in the visited objects dictionary in order to detect shortcuts and cycles. TODO: extend to structures including shortcuts and cycles, but excluding aliasing, with a visited objects map instead of a set.

Retrieves the other incident node of this edge.

Resets all attribute bearer attributes to their initial values.

Sets the attribute with the given attribute name to the given value. If the attribute bearer (type) doesn't have an attribute with this name, a NullReferenceException is thrown.
