    36   // \brief Notifier class to notify observes about alterations in
    37   // a container.
    38   //
    39   // The simple graphs can be refered as two containers: a node container
    40   // and an edge container. But they do not store values directly, they
    41   // are just key continars for more value containers, which are the
    42   // node and edge maps.
    43   //
    44   // The node and edge sets of the graphs can be changed as we add or erase
    45   // nodes and edges in the graph. LEMON would like to handle easily
    46   // that the node and edge maps should contain values for all nodes or
    47   // edges. If we want to check on every indicing if the map contains
    48   // the current indicing key that cause a drawback in the performance
    49   // in the library. We use another solution: we notify all maps about
    50   // an alteration in the graph, which cause only drawback on the
    51   // alteration of the graph.
    52   //
    53   // This class provides an interface to a node or edge container.
    54   // The first() and next() member functions make possible
    55   // to iterate on the keys of the container.
    56   // The id() function returns an integer id for each key.
    57   // The maxId() function gives back an upper bound of the ids.
    58   //
    59   // For the proper functonality of this class, we should notify it
    60   // about each alteration in the container. The alterations have four type:
    61   // add(), erase(), build() and clear(). The add() and
    62   // erase() signal that only one or few items added or erased to or
    63   // from the graph. If all items are erased from the graph or if a new graph
    64   // is built from an empty graph, then it can be signaled with the
    65   // clear() and build() members. Important rule that if we erase items
    66   // from graphs we should first signal the alteration and after that erase
    67   // them from the container, on the other way on item addition we should
    68   // first extend the container and just after that signal the alteration.
    69   //
    70   // The alteration can be observed with a class inherited from the
    71   // ObserverBase nested class. The signals can be handled with
    72   // overriding the virtual functions defined in the base class.  The
    73   // observer base can be attached to the notifier with the
    74   // attach() member and can be detached with detach() function. The
    75   // alteration handlers should not call any function which signals
    76   // an other alteration in the same notifier and should not
    77   // detach any observer from the notifier.
    78   //
    79   // Alteration observers try to be exception safe. If an add() or
    80   // a clear() function throws an exception then the remaining
    81   // observeres will not be notified and the fulfilled additions will
    82   // be rolled back by calling the erase() or clear() functions.
    83   // Hence erase() and clear() should not throw exception.
    84   // Actullay, they can throw only \ref ImmediateDetach exception,
    85   // which detach the observer from the notifier.
    86   //
    87   // There are some cases, when the alteration observing is not completly
    88   // reliable. If we want to carry out the node degree in the graph
    89   // as in the \ref InDegMap and we use the reverseArc(), then it cause
    90   // unreliable functionality. Because the alteration observing signals
    91   // only erasing and adding but not the reversing, it will stores bad
    92   // degrees. Apart form that the subgraph adaptors cannot even signal
    93   // the alterations because just a setting in the filter map can modify
    94   // the graph and this cannot be watched in any way.
