C++ API to Export MD to DOT
Render MD to DOT within C++ applications without requiring any third party application
Why to Convert MD to DOT?
Converting MD to DOT is a useful process for C++ developers who need to automate the conversion of file formats. MD is a markdown language used to create documents with plain text formatting, while DOT is a graph description language used to create diagrams. Converting MD to DOT allows developers to create diagrams from markdown documents, making it easier to visualize and share data.
How Aspose.Total Helps for MD to DOT Conversion?
Aspose.Total for C++ is a file format automation library that makes it easy for C++ developers to convert MD to DOT. The library consists of two components: Aspose.PDF for C++ and Aspose.Words for C++. Aspose.PDF for C++ is used to convert MD files to DOC, while Aspose.Words for C++ is used to export DOC to DOT. This two-step process makes it easy to convert MD to DOT quickly and accurately. Aspose.Total for C++ also offers a range of other features, such as the ability to create, edit, and convert PDF files, as well as the ability to manipulate Word documents.
C++ API to Render MD to DOT
Get Started with C++ File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total.Cpp or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.Cpp.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
// load MD file with an instance of Document class reference
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"sourceFile.md");
// save MD as a DOC
doc->Save(u"DocOutput.doc", SaveFormat::Doc);
// load DOC with an instance of Document
System::SharedPtr<Document> wordDoc = System::MakeObject<Document>(u"DocOutput.doc");
// save document as Dot
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Dot");
Change Password of MD Document via C++
In the process of rendering MD to DOT, you can open a password protected MD and also change its password. In order to change the password of a MD file, you must know the owner password of that document. You can load password protected PDF document with Aspose.PDF for C++ by specifying its owner password and use ChangePasswords method to change the password.
// load an existing MD Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.md", L"owner");
// change password of MD Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Restrict DOT File Editing via C++
You can also restrict DOT file editing using using Aspose.Words for C++ API. Sometimes you may need to limit the ability to edit a document and only allow certain actions with it. API enables you to control the way you restrict the content using the ProtectionType enumeration parameter. The following code example demonstrates how to restrict editing in a document so only editing in form fields is possible.
// load Doc with an instance of Document
auto doc = System::MakeObject<Document>("input.doc");
// document protection only works when document protection is turned and only editing in form fields is allowed.
doc->Protect(ProtectionType::AllowOnlyFormFields, u"password");
// save the protected document.
doc->Save(u"Protected.Dot");
