3*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery=========================
4*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
5*a3cefe7fSPierre ProncheryThe `queue` module provides an interface that allows easily building a dependency graph from an
6*a3cefe7fSPierre Proncheryarbitrary set of dependencies.  It also provides support for doing "preflight" checks on the entire
7*a3cefe7fSPierre Proncherydependency graph prior to working with it.
8*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
9*a3cefe7fSPierre ProncheryUsing the `queue` module functions is the recommended way of working with dependency graphs.

20*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
21*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   Compile a dependency resolution queue into a dependency resolution problem if possible, otherwise report an error.

27*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :rtype: bool
28*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery

32*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery

38*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   Removes references to package nodes contained in a solution.
39*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
40*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :param pkgconf_client_t* client: The pkgconf client object to use for dependency resolution.
41*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :param pkgconf_pkg_t* world: The root for the generated dependency graph.  Should have PKGCONF_PKG_PROPF_VIRTUAL flag.
42*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :returns: nothing

44*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery.. c:function:: bool pkgconf_queue_solve(pkgconf_client_t *client, pkgconf_list_t *list, pkgconf_pkg_t *world, int maxdepth)
45*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
46*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   Solves and flattens the dependency graph for the supplied dependency list.
47*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery

50*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :param pkgconf_pkg_t* world: The root for the generated dependency graph, provided by the caller.  Should have PKGCONF_PKG_PROPF_VIRTUAL flag.
51*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :param int maxdepth: The maximum allowed depth for the dependency resolver.  A depth of -1 means unlimited.
52*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :returns: true if the dependency resolver found a solution, otherwise false.

56*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
57*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   Attempt to compile a dependency resolution queue into a dependency resolution problem, then attempt to solve the problem and
58*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   feed the solution to a callback function if a complete dependency graph is found.
59*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
60*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   This function should not be used in new code.  Use pkgconf_queue_solve instead.
61*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
62*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :param pkgconf_client_t* client: The pkgconf client object to use for dependency resolution.

66*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :param void* data: An opaque pointer which is passed to the callback function.
67*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :returns: true if the dependency resolver found a solution, otherwise false.
68*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery   :rtype: bool
69*a3cefe7fSPierre Pronchery
