public interface PathMeter

extends CEPathMeter

PathMeters measure the cost to enter and leave nodes and cross edges. These are most often used by other algorithms to find the cost of travelling a specific CEPath. Write one of these and feed it to the algorithm with the path or directed graph.

For GEDigraphs and GEPaths, the costToCross method will receive the GENERICEDGE object.

If a method receives an argument that it can not evaluate, throw an IllegalArgumentException. If your PathMeter really only works with doubles and converting to an int makes no sense, throw an UnsupportedOperationException where the method returns an int. Else, describe what rounding rules you are using.
