277,[BGL] Asymmetry between read_graphviz() and write_graphviz(),nobody,Douglas Gregor,"{{{
During some experiments with the BGL-GraphViz 
interface, I observed a significant asymmetry between a 
given DOT graph input with boost::read_graphviz() and 
output with boost::write_graphviz() (without changing 
any attributes).

Given the input DOT file <metro.dot> (which is, of 
course, much longer with the full set of information), the 
elementary BGL program <metro.cxx> transforms this 
into the output DOT file <metro_boost.dot> (the three 
files are attached to this submission).

It seems that somewhere on the way, the graph and 
node (and edge) attributes get clobbered. Note that 
even the graph name ""metro"" gets replaced by the name 
of the (last) subgraph ""ligne_1"", and /all/ node attributes 
get mixed up. This seems to be somewhat similar to the 
recent edge-related problem posted by Hideaki Hiraki to 
the boost-users list.

I have not (yet) tried to mess with the graphviz parser 
code, so I am asking here for help. Thanks.

Greetings,
Andreas
