图形可视化（增强图）

Question

I have C++ program using boost graph library. I wonder if there is any way to visualize the graph (nodes and optionally edges) following a certain position values contained in nodes. Please look the examples of the image bellow to understand what I want to visualise: http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/647608graphViz.png

Thanks.

You're in luck.

Boost graph can serialize to and deserialize from the dot language (which is the language used by GraphViz ). There are several examples in the (free) Boost Graph Library book and on the site.

See eg: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/graph/doc/write-graphviz.html

If you take the output of the sample on the previous webpage and run

dot -Tpng dot > test.png

You'll get something like the following picture:
