Re: [igraph] Vertex ID's during deletion

[Gábor Csárdi]

Hi Nick,

you can keep track of attributes using igraph attributes in C as well. See here:
http://igraph.sourceforge.net/doc/html/ch12s02.html

The igraph implementation of attributes in C is very simple, so maybe
you only want to use one for vertices, one for edges, numeric ID
attributes for both of them. Then you can use these IDs to access the
rest of the attributes on your own.

Best,
Gabor
