<H1>AStar Visitor Concept</H1>
This concept defines the visitor interface for <a
href="./astar_search.html"><tt>astar_search()</tt></a>. Users can
define a class with the AStar Visitor interface and pass an object of
the class to <tt>astar_search()</tt>, thereby augmenting the actions
taken during the graph search.
<h3>Refinement of</h3>
<a href="../../utility/CopyConstructible.html">Copy Constructible</a>
(copying a visitor should be a lightweight operation).

<tr>
<th>Name</th><th>Expression</th><th>Return Type</th><th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Initialize Vertex</td>
<td><tt>vis.initialize_vertex(u, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on each vertex of the graph when it is first
initialized (i.e., when its property maps are initialized).
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Discover Vertex</td>
<td><tt>vis.discover_vertex(u, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked when a vertex is first discovered and is added to the
OPEN list.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Examine Vertex</td>
<td><tt>vis.examine_vertex(u, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on a vertex as it is popped from the queue (i.e., it
has the lowest cost on the OPEN list). This happens immediately before
<tt>examine_edge()</tt> is invoked on each of the out-edges of vertex
<tt>u</tt>.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Examine Edge</td>
<td><tt>vis.examine_edge(e, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on every out-edge of each vertex after it is
examined.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Edge Relaxed</td>
<td><tt>vis.edge_relaxed(e, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
Upon examination, if the following condition holds then the edge is
relaxed (the distance of its target vertex is reduced) and this method
is invoked:
<blockquote>
<pre>
tie(u, s) = incident(e, g);
D d_u = get(d, u), d_v = get(d, s);
W w_e = get(w, e);
assert(compare(combine(d_u, w_e), d_s));
</pre>
</blockquote>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Edge Not Relaxed</td>
<td><tt>vis.edge_not_relaxed(e, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
Upon examination, if an edge is not relaxed (see above) then this
method is invoked.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Black Target</td>
<td><tt>vis.black_target(e, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked when a vertex that is on the CLOSED list is
``rediscovered'' via a more efficient path and is re-added to the
OPEN list.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Finish Vertex</td>
<td><tt>vis.finish_vertex(u, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on a vertex when it is added to the CLOSED list. This
happens after all of its out-edges have been examined.
</td>
</tr>
