RE: [jgrapht-users] The code

Hi Vernon,=20

The problem is in your implementation of class V.

The class overrides the equals() method without overriding hashCode()
method. Doing it is against the contract of equals() and hashCode() =
methods,
and it confuses the HashSet class used internally by JGraphT.

This is a mistake that almost every Java programmer does only once. I'm
saying "once" because it usually takes enough time to find, to never =
forget
about it :).

Please read CAREFULLY the documentation of equals() and hashCode():
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/Object.html

The answers are coming ... ;)

All the best,
Barak
