Tutorial needs to be clear that v2.2 needs to be used, or brought up-to-date with graphlab-code.
The current tutorial doesn't work off of the master branch of the github repository (found trying to coach a friend through the installation and starting examples.
Noticed two small problems with the tutorial:
-
use of graphlab::distributed_graph_type as opposed to graphlab::distributed_graph. This is correct in most of the tutorial except on page http://docs.graphlab.org/using_graphlab_distributed_graph_load_data.html following "At this point, your code will look like this:".
-
Both instances of the line parser have bugs in them on page http://docs.graphlab.org/using_graphlab_distributed_graph_load_data.html again.
The first version has "retun true" instead of "return true", while the version following "At this point, your code will look like this:" is missing the "return true" entirely.
Oops, I didn't see this issue here, and filed #122 . On the plus-side, #122 has a patch / pull request...
