38<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt> function interprets a graph described using the
39<a class="reference external" href="http://graphviz.org/">GraphViz</a> DOT language and builds a BGL graph that captures that
40description. Using these functions, you can initialize a graph using
41data stored as text.</p>
42<p>The DOT language can specify both directed and undirected graphs, and
43<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt> differentiates between the two. One must pass
44<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt> an undirected graph when reading an undirected graph;
45the same is true for directed graphs. Furthermore, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt>
46will throw an exception if it encounters parallel edges and cannot add
47them to the graph.</p>
48<p>To handle properties expressed in the DOT language, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt>
49takes a <a class="reference external" href="../../property_map/doc/dynamic_property_map.html">dynamic_properties</a> object and operates on its collection of
50property maps. The reader passes all the properties encountered to
51this object, using the GraphViz string keys as the property keys.
52Furthermore, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt> stores node identifier names under the
53vertex property map named <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">node_id</span></tt>.</p>

115<p>Under certain circumstances, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt> will throw one of the
116above exceptions. The three concrete exceptions can all be caught
117using the general <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">graph_exception</span></tt> moniker when greater precision
118is not needed. In addition, all of the above exceptions derive from
119the standard <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">std::exception</span></tt> for even more generalized error
120handling.</p>
121<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bad_parallel_edge</span></tt> exception is thrown when an attempt to add a
122parallel edge to the supplied MutableGraph fails. The DOT language
123supports parallel edges, but some BGL-compatible graph types do not.
124One example of such a graph is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">boost::adjacency_list&lt;setS,vecS&gt;</span></tt>,
125which allows at most one edge can between any two vertices.</p>
126<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">directed_graph_error</span></tt> exception occurs when an undirected graph
127type is passed to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graph</span></tt> but the textual representation of the
128graph is directed, as indicated by the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">digraph</span></tt> keyword in the DOT
129language.</p>
130<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">undirected_graph_error</span></tt> exception occurs when a directed graph
131type is passed to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graph</span></tt> but the textual representation of the
132graph is undirected, as indicated by the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">graph</span></tt> keyword in the DOT
133language.</p>
134<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bad_graphviz_syntax</span></tt> exception occurs when the graph input is not a
135valid GraphViz graph.</p>

183<p>To use the GraphViz readers, you will need to build and link against

190<ul class="simple">
191<li>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt> function does not use any code from the
192GraphViz distribution to interpret the DOT Language. Rather, the
193implementation was based on documentation found on the GraphViz web
194site, as well as experiments run using the dot application. The
195resulting interpretation may be subtly different from dot for some
196corner cases that are not well specified.</li>
197<li>On successful reading of a graph, every vertex and edge will have
198an associated value for every respective edge and vertex property
199encountered while interpreting the graph. These values will be set
200using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">dynamic_properties</span></tt> object. Those edges and
201vertices that are not explicitly given a value for a property (and that
202property has no default) will be
203given the default constructed value of the value type. <strong>Be sure
204that property map value types are default constructible.</strong></li>
205<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphviz</span></tt> treats subgraphs as syntactic sugar. It does not
206reflect subgraphs as actual entities in the BGL. Rather, they are
207used to shorten some edge definitions as well as to give a subset
208of all nodes or edges certain properties. For example, the
209DOT graphs <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">digraph</span> <span class="pre">{</span> <span class="pre">a</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">subgraph</span> <span class="pre">{b</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">c}</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">e</span> <span class="pre">}</span></tt> and
210<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">digraph</span> <span class="pre">{</span> <span class="pre">a</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">b</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">e</span> <span class="pre">;</span> <span class="pre">a</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">c</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">e</span> <span class="pre">;</span> <span class="pre">b</span> <span class="pre">-&gt;</span> <span class="pre">c}</span></tt> are equivalent.</li>
211<li>Subgraph IDs refer to subgraphs defined earlier in the graph
212description. Undefined subgraphs behave as empty subgraphs
213(<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">{}</span></tt>). This is the same behavior as GraphViz.</li>
