05-main-rev1294-vs8 Full source code (this is rev1294 with my fixes for visual studio 2005)
05-main-rev1294-vs8 binary include files and library only, use this if you just want to use igraph in visual studio 2005
05-main-rev1294-vs8 example Example project, requires the ‘binary’ package
Know issues
- File reader/writers aren’t working (GML/Graphml/Pajek/Graphviz etc)
List of changes
Using revision 1294
Repository: https://code.launchpad.net/~igraph/igraph/0.5-main
1. bliss_timer.cc line 18, Remove or make the following line a comment:
#include <unistd.h>
2. Add #ifndef YY_NO_UNISTD_H at the top of the following files:
foreign-gml-lexer.c
foreign-lgl-lexer.c
foreign-ncol-lexer.c
foreign-pajek-lexer.c
After these ‘fixes’ the library will build (igraph.lib) but not work yet.
When trying the examples from:
http://cneurocvs.rmki.kfki.hu/igraph/doc/html/ch03s01.html
http://cneurocvs.rmki.kfki.hu/igraph/doc/html/ch03s03.html
3. Fix the missing _ifinite issue:
Add in random.c:
#include <float.h>
4. Fix the missing isnan issue (also in random.c, _isnan requires float.h):
int R_isnancpp(double x)
{
return (_isnan(x)!=0);
// return (isnan(x)!=0);
}
and
#ifdef __cplusplus
int R_isnancpp(double); /* in arithmetic.c */
#define ISNAN(x) R_isnancpp(x)
#else
//#define ISNAN(x) (isnan(x)!=0)
#define ISNAN(x) (_isnan(x)!=0)
#endif
5. Fix the missing round issue (also in random.c):
Add this line near the includes at the top:
int round (double x)
{
int i = (int) x;
if (x >= 0.0)
{
return ((x-i) >= 0.5) ? (i + 1) : (i);
}
else
{
return (-x+i >= 0.5) ? (i – 1) : (i);
}
}
6. Fix the missing isnan issue (in math.c)
change line 44:
return (!isnan(x) & (x != IGRAPH_POSINFINITY) & (x != IGRAPH_NEGINFINITY));
to
return (!_isnan(x) & (x != IGRAPH_POSINFINITY) & (x != IGRAPH_NEGINFINITY));
7. igraph.lib(structure_generators.obj):
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _strcasecmp referenced in function _igraph_famous
solution

add this at the top of the file:
#if defined(WIN32) || defined(WIN64)
#define strcasecmp _stricmp
#endif /* Def WIN32 or Def WIN64 */

Hello Laurence,
thank you for providing the Visual Studio Project files. Regarding the file read/write problems: Is it a bug in iGraph or some problem with the Windows build?
Thanks,
Mathias

Hello again,
in the meanwhile I compiled a new version with file read/write support and the latest igraph source (0.5.3).
Thank you again for the explanation. Without it I wouldn’t be able to build it.

Actually I don’t know what is causing the read and write problems. It’s probably related to the compiler…
All these fixes van been reported to Gabor and Tamas, so I think future version might not require these patch instructions.
