Class AStar

java.lang.Object

com.graphhopper.routing.AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

com.graphhopper.routing.AStar

All Implemented Interfaces:

RoutingAlgorithm

public class AStar
extends AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

This class implements the A* algorithm according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A*_search_algorithm

Different distance calculations can be used via setApproximation.

Constructor Detail

AStar

public AStar(Graph graph,
             Weighting weighting,
             TraversalMode tMode)

Method Detail

setApproximation

public AStar setApproximation(WeightApproximator approx)

Parameters:

approx - defines how distance to goal Node is approximated

initCollections

protected void initCollections(int size)

calcPath

public Path calcPath(int from,
                     int to)

Description copied from interface: RoutingAlgorithm

Calculates the best path between the specified nodes.

Returns:

the path. Call the method found() to make sure that the path is valid.

extractPath

protected Path extractPath()

Description copied from class: AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

To be overwritten from extending class. Should we make this available in RoutingAlgorithm interface?

Specified by:

extractPath in class AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

Returns:

true if finished.

createSPTEntry

protected SPTEntry createSPTEntry(int node,
                                  double weight)

Overrides:

createSPTEntry in class AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

finished

protected boolean finished()

Description copied from class: AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

To be overwritten from extending class. Should we make this available in RoutingAlgorithm interface?

Specified by:

finished in class AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

Returns:

true if finished.

getVisitedNodes

public int getVisitedNodes()

Description copied from interface: RoutingAlgorithm

Returns the visited nodes after searching. Useful for debugging.

getName

public String getName()

Specified by:

getName in interface RoutingAlgorithm

Overrides:

getName in class AbstractRoutingAlgorithm

Returns:

name of this algorithm
