proposed fix

Please review the attached patch. It fixes covertiy-scan id 49817. In fiel src/dot.cpp, the function writeVecGfxFigure returns a boolean value. But this return value was not checked. The attached patch fixes this issue and emits a corresponding message in case of an error.

Best regards and many thanks

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.9. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information 
that you think can be relevant (preferrably in the form of a self-contained example).
