Bug#326089: libboost-graph-dev: undefined reference to read_graphviz(std::istream&, mutate_graph&)

[Nick Lewycky]

Package: libboost-graph-dev
Version: 1.33.0-1
Severity: normal

I'm not clear if this is an issue with the packaging, or the code, or
the documentation. Boost suggests that read_graphviz has the
prototype:

template <typename MutableGraph>
bool read_graphviz(std::istream& in, MutableGraph& graph,
                   dynamic_properties& dp, 
                   const std::string& node_id = "node_id");

Sample code at http://www.boost.org/libs/graph/example/graphviz.cpp
shows how to use it. That function is actually implemented in
boost/graph/graphviz.hpp:

// Parse the passed stream as a GraphViz dot file.
template <typename MutableGraph>
bool read_graphviz(std::istream& in, MutableGraph& graph,
                   dynamic_properties& dp,
                   std::string const& node_id = "node_id") 
{
  detail::graph::mutate_graph_impl<MutableGraph> m_graph(graph, dp, node_id);
  return detail::graph::read_graphviz(in, m_graph);
}

and it's that function "detail::graph::read_graphviz" which doesn't
exist. The prototype for it is:

bool read_graphviz(std::istream& in, mutate_graph& graph);

Here's the full compile error from the example code posted above:

$ g++ -Wall -pedantic -g -lbgl-viz  test_graphviz.cpp -o test_graphviz
