<H1>DFS Visitor Concept</H1>
This concept defines the visitor interface for <a
href="./depth_first_search.html"><tt>depth_first_search()</tt></a>.
Users can define a class with the DFS Visitor interface and pass and
object of the class to <tt>depth_first_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(s, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on every vertex of the graph before the start of the
graph search.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Start Vertex</td>
<td><tt>vis.start_vertex(s, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on the source vertex once before the start of the
search.
</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 encountered for the first time.
</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 discovered.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Tree Edge</td>
<td><tt>vis.tree_edge(e, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on each edge as it becomes a member of the edges that
form the search tree.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Back Edge</td>
<td><tt>vis.back_edge(e, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on the back edges in the graph. For an undirected
graph there is some ambiguity between tree edges and back edges since
the edge <i>(u,v)</i> and <i>(v,u)</i> are the same edge, but both the
<tt>tree_edge()</tt> and <tt>back_edge()</tt> functions will be
invoked. One way to resolve this ambiguity is to record the tree
edges, and then disregard the back-edges that are already marked as
tree edges. An easy way to record tree edges is to record
predecessors at the <tt>tree_edge</tt> event point.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Forward or Cross Edge</td>
<td><tt>vis.forward_or_cross_edge(e, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This is invoked on forward or cross edges in the graph. In an
undirected graph this method is never called.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Finish Vertex</td>
<td><tt>vis.finish_vertex(u, g)</tt></td>
<td><tt>void</tt></td>
<td>
This invoked on a vertex after all of its out edges have been added to the
search tree and all of the adjacent vertices have been discovered
(but before their out-edges have been examined).
