Unable to use dot layout (graphviz as a library)

Question

I use graphviz (v2.28.0) as a library in a C++ application and I would like to render graphs using the dot layout. Everything works fine until I call the gvLayout(_c

Answer 1

Do you use graphviz with dynamic library loading? In a static environment the following lines may help:

#include "gvplugin.h"

extern gvplugin_library_t gvplugin_dot_layout_LTX_library;
extern gvplugin_library_t gvplugin_neato_layout_LTX_library;
extern gvplugin_library_t gvplugin_core_LTX_library;
extern gvplugin_library_t gvplugin_quartz_LTX_library;
extern gvplugin_library_t gvplugin_visio_LTX_library;

lt_symlist_t lt_preloaded_symbols[] =
{
    { "gvplugin_dot_layout_LTX_library", &gvplugin_dot_layout_LTX_library},
    { "gvplugin_neato_layout_LTX_library", &gvplugin_neato_layout_LTX_library},
    { "gvplugin_core_LTX_library", &gvplugin_core_LTX_library},
    { "gvplugin_quartz_LTX_library", &gvplugin_quartz_LTX_library},
    { "gvplugin_visio_LTX_library", &gvplugin_visio_LTX_library},
    { 0, 0}
};
