I am new to trying to build matplotlib from svn and believe I am up against
the issue described in this thread. That is, building matplotlib on Python
2.6.2/Windows, compiling/linking with MinGW seem to go fine but upon trying
to
from pylab import *
I get
....
....(lots of traceback that culminates below)
....
C:\Python262\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\image.py in <module>()
19 # For clarity, names from _image are given explicitly in this
module:
20 import matplotlib._image as _image
---> 21 import matplotlib._png as _png
22
23 # For user convenience, the names from _image are also imported
into
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be
found. )
even though matplotlib\_png.pyd exists.
I am wondering if there has been any progress on this front?
I found http://www.nabble.com/Python-2.6.2-installation--td23996471.html
this thread
which suggests using Visual Studio 2008 (VS9) instead of MinGW, but that was
for 0.98.5.3. I installed VS9 and followed the instructions in that thread
but now when I try to import pylab Visual Studio's Just-In-Time Debugger
pops up telling me I have an unhandled win32 exception in python.exe
Can anyone comment on a verified way of building the latest matplotlib on
Windows/Python 2.6.2? I keep going down dead ends and would like to figure
out if its me or if I have just been down now-known bad paths.
Thanks,
Josh
