Re: Data model design questio: graph in database

Dear Mike,

I will definitely play aroudn with your nice suggestion, but I would like
to share a concern I have. At this stage I am actually unsure how this
will work.

Indeed, suppose a vertex is given as input and one tries to query the
database about all the edges that originate from this vertex. The answer
will be under the form of a list of edges, but those will be of class
Edge and I assume that their type method will return the Edge class
and not the class associated to the actual child.

Likewise, once given the list of edges, one has access to the list of
vertices that are neiighbourgs of the original one, but under the form
of a list of objects of the base class, Vertex, with still no way to find
the type of the child object that has given rise to that Vertex one.

Am I perhaps missing something here?

Many thanks in advance and apologies for th likely naïve question,

Seb.
