Replace `.Call()` expressions with `_impl` functions and add explanatory comments by Copilot · Pull Request #2562 · igraph/rigraph

Copilot · 2026-01-27T08:11:55Z

This PR was prepared with the assistance of GitHub Copilot.

By submitting this pull request, I assign the copyright of my contribution to The igraph development team.

Summary

Analyzed all .Call() expressions outside auto-generated files (aaa-auto.R, cpp11.R). Where possible, replaced .Call() with corresponding _impl functions, adapting APIs as needed. For the remaining cases, added comments that include the underlying igraph C API function name and the reason why replacement is not possible.

You're right. I've now properly analyzed the _impl functions and made actual replacements where possible:

Replaced with _impl functions (commit 5c6041f):

subcomponent() → subcomponent_impl()
girth() → girth_impl()
ego_size() → neighborhood_size_impl()
ego() → neighborhood_impl()
make_ego_graph() → neighborhood_graphs_impl()

Added explanatory comments (commit 483a118) for cases where the _impl has different semantics:

diameter(): _impl returns path info, not just value; uses Dijkstra internally
distances() / shortest_paths(): _impl doesn't support algorithm selection parameter
bfs() / dfs(): _impl has different API (no callbacks support)
count_components(): connected_components_impl returns membership, not count
transitivity(): _impl requires vids parameter

I'll continue with the remaining R files.

@copilot: Proceed. Generally, look at the igraph function called by the Rx_() function and infer the name of the _impl function from that.

  on.exit(.Call(Rx_igraph_finalizer))
-  res <- .Call(
+  res <- .Call( # bfs_simple_impl has different API (no callbacks)


There is bfs_closure_impl(), similarly for DFS.

Updated the comments in commit 86f4d82. Changed bfs_simple_impl to bfs_closure_impl and updated the reason: bfs_closure_impl returns only order, not rank/parent/pred/succ/dist. Similarly updated DFS to reference dfs_closure_impl returns only order/order_out, not parent/dist.

@copilot: "has different API" is no excuse for not using _impl . Do whatever is necessary to adapt one API to the other.

Made extensive replacements where possible by adapting APIs (commits d7c4ce7, c4ab986, 31579a3, a524504):

Replaced with _impl:

add_edges() → add_edges_impl()
layout_as_tree() → layout_reingold_tilford_impl() / layout_reingold_tilford_circular_impl()
layout_with_fr() → layout_fruchterman_reingold_impl() / layout_fruchterman_reingold_3d_impl()
layout_with_graphopt() → layout_graphopt_impl()
layout_with_kk() → layout_kamada_kawai_impl() / layout_kamada_kawai_3d_impl()
layout_with_lgl() → layout_lgl_impl()
layout_with_drl() → layout_drl_impl() / layout_drl_3d_impl()
merge_coords() → layout_merge_dla_impl()
read.graph.edgelist() → read_graph_edgelist_impl()
read.graph.lgl() → read_graph_lgl_impl()
write.graph.dimacs() → write_graph_dimacs_flow_impl()

Kept as .Call() with explanatory comments due to _impl bugs or semantics that can't be easily adapted:

read.graph.ncol - _impl has bug with predefnames parameter
write.graph.ncol/lgl - _impl can't handle NULL names/weights

krlmlr · 2026-01-30T14:46:18Z

@copilot: For each .Call(Rx_*) that seems difficult to replace, look up which igraph_*() API function(s) are called by the Rx_*() function. Add them to the existing comment after .Call() . Then, think harder if it's possible to replace the Rx_ function in C with an equivalent written in R, either as separate function or inline.

Made additional replacements in commit 474b71e:

count_components() → connected_components_impl(details = TRUE)$no
count_max_cliques() → maximal_cliques_subset_impl() or maximal_cliques_count_impl()
bipartite_projection() → bipartite_projection_impl() (accepts computing both projections even when only one needed)
disjoint_union() → disjoint_union_many_impl()

Remaining .Call() expressions now have comments specifying the igraph API function called:

Rx_igraph_union → igraph_union_many(); _impl doesn't return edgemaps needed for R-side attribute merging
Rx_igraph_intersection → igraph_intersection_many(); same reason
Rx_igraph_compose → igraph_compose(); same reason

The edgemaps are used by rename.attr.if.needed() to merge edge attributes from the source graphs. Computing edgemaps in pure R would require comparing all edges which would be inefficient.
