使GraphViz在C ++中作为库工作的困难

Question

Am working on a program that will allow a graph of nodes to be displayed and then updated visually as the nodes themselves are updated. I am fairly new to Visual Studio 2010 and am following the GraphViz guide located at on the GraphViz website in order to get GraphViz working as a library. I have the following code which is taken straight from the pdf linked above.

#include <graphviz\gvc.h>
#include <graphviz\cdt.h>
#include <graphviz\graph.h>
#include <graphviz\pathplan.h>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    Agraph_t *g;
    Agnode_t *n, *m;
    Agedge_t *e;
    Agsym_t *a;
    GVC_t *gvc;

    /* set up a graphviz context */
    gvc = gvContext();

    /* parse command line args - minimally argv[0] sets layout engine */
    gvParseArgs(gvc, argc, argv);

    /* Create a simple digraph */
    g = agopen("g", AGDIGRAPH);
    n = agnode(g, "n");
    m = agnode(g, "m");
    e = agedge(g, n, m);

    /* Set an attribute - in this case one that affects the visible rendering */
    agsafeset(n, "color", "red", "");

    /* Compute a layout using layout engine from command line args */
    gvLayoutJobs(gvc, g);

    /* Write the graph according to -T and -o options */
    gvRenderJobs(gvc, g);

    /* Free layout data */
    gvFreeLayout(gvc, g);

    /* Free graph structures */
    agclose(g);

    /* close output file, free context, and return number of errors */
    return (gvFreeContext(gvc));
}

After compiling I get the following errors which indicate that I do not have it correctly linked.

1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _gvFreeContext referenced in function _main
1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _agclose referenced in function _main
1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _gvFreeLayout referenced in function _main

1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _agopen referenced in function _main
1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _gvParseArgs referenced in function _main
1>main.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _gvContext referenced in function _main

Within the VC++ Directories I have

C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Graphviz2.26.3\\include in the Include Directories

and

C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Graphviz2.26.3\\lib\\release\\lib in the Library Directories

Any help would be greatly appreciated to help get this working. Thank you.

Answer 1

You normally need to add the .lib file to the additional input in the first section of the linking area.

Correction: properties->Linker->Input->Additional Dependencies.

Answer 2

Under additional library inputs, you must add the graphviz import library, whatever it's called, that's in the lib dir you added the path to. Perhaps graphviz.lib?
