The gxl file extension is related to Graph eXchange Language, an XML-based standard exchange format for sharing data between tools.
Formally, GXL represents typed, attributed, directed, ordered graphs which are extended to represent hypergraphs and hierarchical graphs.
This flexible data model can be used for object-relational data and a wide variety of graphs. An advantage of GXL is that it can be used to exchange instance graphs together with their corresponding schema information in a uniform format, i.e. using a common DTD (Document Type Definition).
Use compatible tools to work with *.gxl files.
Compatible tools may be able to export *.gxl files to other formats.
