namespace lemon {

  // \ingroup graphbits
  //
  // \brief Notifier class to notify observes about alterations in
  // a container.
  //
  // The simple graphs can be refered as two containers: a node container
  // and an edge container. But they do not store values directly, they
  // are just key continars for more value containers, which are the
  // node and edge maps.
  //
  // The node and edge sets of the graphs can be changed as we add or erase
  // nodes and edges in the graph. LEMON would like to handle easily
  // that the node and edge maps should contain values for all nodes or
  // edges. If we want to check on every indicing if the map contains
  // the current indicing key that cause a drawback in the performance
  // in the library. We use another solution: we notify all maps about
  // an alteration in the graph, which cause only drawback on the
  // alteration of the graph.
  //
  // This class provides an interface to a node or edge container.
  // The first() and next() member functions make possible
  // to iterate on the keys of the container.
  // The id() function returns an integer id for each key.
  // The maxId() function gives back an upper bound of the ids.
  //
  // For the proper functonality of this class, we should notify it
  // about each alteration in the container. The alterations have four type:
  // add(), erase(), build() and clear(). The add() and
  // erase() signal that only one or few items added or erased to or
  // from the graph. If all items are erased from the graph or if a new graph
  // is built from an empty graph, then it can be signaled with the
  // clear() and build() members. Important rule that if we erase items
  // from graphs we should first signal the alteration and after that erase
  // them from the container, on the other way on item addition we should
  // first extend the container and just after that signal the alteration.
  //
  // The alteration can be observed with a class inherited from the
  // ObserverBase nested class. The signals can be handled with
  // overriding the virtual functions defined in the base class.  The
  // observer base can be attached to the notifier with the
  // attach() member and can be detached with detach() function. The
  // alteration handlers should not call any function which signals
  // an other alteration in the same notifier and should not
  // detach any observer from the notifier.
  //
  // Alteration observers try to be exception safe. If an add() or
  // a clear() function throws an exception then the remaining
  // observeres will not be notified and the fulfilled additions will
  // be rolled back by calling the erase() or clear() functions.
  // Hence erase() and clear() should not throw exception.
  // Actullay, they can throw only \ref ImmediateDetach exception,
  // which detach the observer from the notifier.
  //
  // There are some cases, when the alteration observing is not completly
  // reliable. If we want to carry out the node degree in the graph
  // as in the \ref InDegMap and we use the reverseArc(), then it cause
  // unreliable functionality. Because the alteration observing signals
  // only erasing and adding but not the reversing, it will stores bad
  // degrees. Apart form that the subgraph adaptors cannot even signal
  // the alterations because just a setting in the filter map can modify
  // the graph and this cannot be watched in any way.
  //
  // \param _Container The container which is observed.
  // \param _Item The item type which is obserbved.
