Why `void` nested types in `vertex_info` and `edge_info`?
vertex_info and edge_info are class templates for defining aggregates. When passed void as a template parameter:
- the corresponding aggregate member disappears,
- the corresponding nested type is
void: https://github.com/stdgraph/graph-v2/blob/desc4/include/graph/graph_info.hpp#L41.
Why do we get an alias for void rather than a missing alias? Is there a use case for this?
I'd found that I wanted other code to adapt to whether a value existed or not. (I don't remember the circumstances off the top of my head.) It was easiest to have an alias of void.
