1 The reason for the problem you suggest had been considered in the file <boost/graph/stanford_graph.hpp>, such as
namespace boost {
typedef Graph* sgb_graph_ptr;
typedef const Graph* sgb_const_graph_ptr;

2 There are several reasons I don't using "const Graph*" as the type of the graph object.

(1) I modify the code as below:

const Graph* inputG;

char *in_filename = "r10-0.gb";

more and more errors come up, I find that the graph object *inputG should be modified in

the dijkstra_shortest_path algorithm.

(2) The Graph type point to the const graph object can point to the not const graph such as

inputG (Graph *inputG).

(3) There are several code samples as I do, such as

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_40_0/libs/graph/example/miles_span.cpp

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_40_0/libs/graph/example/dijkstra-example.cpp

Additionaly, the oder of include files is likely the second one, such as:

#include <boost/graph/dijkstra_shortest_paths.hpp>

#include <boost/graph/stanford_graph.hpp>

I have no idea what's the reason for the problem.

For the first one, that may be fixable by using "const Graph*" as the type of your graph object (and changing the rest of the Graph*'s to that as well). See if that changes any of the errors.
