I lean towards (true, false), and then you can add derived edges by
hand with addConstructionEdge, although if you have a lot of them (or
if you have generated all the accessor methods, e.g. with
Demeter/Java) I guess it's easier to do (false, true)-- that's
probably a lot slower, though.

Note to self: need to add removeConstructionEdge...

I've updated the javadoc at

  http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/dougo/dj/

(I will move this to the Demeter page when it's done.)

Here's the documentation of that constructor:

  Make a class graph from all classes in the default package.  If
  f is true, include all fields; if m is true, include all non-void
  no-argument methods.

Does that need to be explained in more detail?
