void read_graphml(std::istream&amp; in, MutableGraph&amp; graph,
dynamic_properties&amp; dp, size_t graph_index = 0);
</pre>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphml</span></tt> function interprets a graph described using the
<a class="reference external" href="http://graphml.graphdrawing.org/">GraphML</a> format and builds a BGL graph that captures that
description. Using this function, you can initialize a graph using
data stored as text.</p>
<p>The GraphML format can specify both directed and undirected graphs, and
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphml</span></tt> differentiates between the two. One must pass
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphml</span></tt> an undirected graph when reading an undirected graph;
the same is true for directed graphs. Furthermore, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphml</span></tt>
will throw an exception if it encounters parallel edges and cannot add
them to the graph.</p>
<p>To handle attributes expressed in the GraphML format, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphml</span></tt>
takes a <a class="reference external" href="../../property_map/doc/dynamic_property_map.html">dynamic_properties</a> object and operates on its collection of
property maps. The reader passes all the properties encountered to
this object, using the GraphML attribute names as the property names,
and with the appropriate C++ value type based on the GraphML attribute type
definition. Graph properties are also set with the same
<a class="reference external" href="../../property_map/doc/dynamic_property_map.html">dynamic_properties</a> object, where the key type is the type of the graph itself.</p>
<p>If the file contains multiple graphs, the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">graph_index</span></tt> parameter controls
which graph will be loaded. It defaults to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">0</span></tt>, meaning that the first graph
in the file will be loaded. If <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">graph_index</span></tt> is greater than or equal to the
number of graphs in the file, an empty graph will be returned.</p>

<p>Under certain circumstances, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graphml</span></tt> will throw one of the
above exceptions. The three concrete exceptions can all be caught
using the general <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">graph_exception</span></tt> moniker when greater precision
is not needed. In addition, all of the above exceptions derive from
the standard <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">std::exception</span></tt> for even more generalized error
handling.</p>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bad_parallel_edge</span></tt> exception is thrown when an attempt to add a
parallel edge to the supplied MutableGraph fails. The GraphML format
supports parallel edges, but some BGL-compatible graph types do not.
One example of such a graph is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">boost::adjacency_list&lt;setS,vecS&gt;</span></tt>,
which allows at most one edge can between any two vertices.</p>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">directed_graph_error</span></tt> exception occurs when an undirected graph
type is passed to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graph</span></tt>, but the graph defined in the GraphML
file contains at least one directed edge.</p>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">undirected_graph_error</span></tt> exception occurs when a directed graph
type is passed to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">read_graph</span></tt>, but the graph defined in the GraphML
file contains at least one undirected edge.</p>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">parse_error</span></tt> exception occurs when a syntax error is
encountered in the GraphML file. The error string will contain the
line and column where the error was encountered.</p>

<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">Building the GraphML reader</a></h1>
<p>To use the GraphML reader, you will need to build and link against
the &quot;boost_graph&quot; library. The library can be built by following the
<a class="reference external" href="../../../more/getting_started.html#Build_Install">Boost Jam Build Instructions</a> for the subdirectory <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">libs/graph/build</span></tt>.</p>

<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id5">Notes</a></h1>
<blockquote>
<ul class="simple">
<li>On successful reading of a graph, every vertex and edge will have
an associated value for every respective edge and vertex property
encountered while interpreting the graph. These values will be set
using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">dynamic_properties</span></tt> object. Some properties may be
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">put</span></tt> multiple times during the course of reading in order to
ensure the GraphML semantics. Those edges and vertices that are
not explicitly given a value for a property (and that property has
no default) will be given the default constructed value of the
value type. <strong>Be sure that property map value types are default
constructible.</strong></li>
<li>Nested graphs are supported as long as they are exactly of the same
type as the root graph, i.e., are also directed or undirected. Note
that since nested graphs are not directly supported by BGL, they
are in fact completely ignored when building the graph, and the
internal vertices or edges are interpreted as belonging to the root
graph.</li>
<li>Hyperedges and Ports are not supported.</li>
</ul>
