Hi Jibin!

I think you mean, it's the only open-sourced directed graph layout algorithm.  Still.  And it's been over 10 years now.

Obviously, Dynagraph is not in active development right now, but what you are doing should work once the bit-rot is defeated.  I believe others were successful in the past with using the comdg objects in .NET.  

As you point out, though, the main problem is that there have been several releases of Windows since then, and even more releases of MSVC.  I think I did get it to build under Windows a couple of years ago, but I'm not sure if I updated the repo.

Even when they worked, the build instructions were a bit ungainly: 
http://www.dynagraph.org/building-dgwin.php

I guess the best I can say, unfortunately, is Patches Welcome!  Hopefully sometime I will find a free day to update everything, but I'm not sure when that will be.

Cheers,
Gordon

However, the binary build of dgwin seems to be not compatible with Win 8. And when I tried to build it the dgwin solution, it failed with various kinds of errors. Is there any easy way which I can use DynaGraph in .NET? I expect to use comdg to get the positions of vertices and edges and draw them in WPF. Do you think this approach is meaningful?
