Hello. I am terribly sorry. I was mistaken last night. I had the latest Matplotlib version 0.98.5.2 and I thought the bug was fixed but it hasn't. Let me explain.
In the file MPL_isnan.h line 26 there is a declaration: typedef long int MPL_Int64 This is fine for Linux 64-bit, but NOT for Windows XP 64-bit! For Windows the declaration should be: typedef long long MPL_Int64 This bug has caused me a LOT of late nights and last night was one of them. The declaration is correct for Linux 64-bit and I guess Matplotlib was developed on Linux because of this declaration. That is also why I thought the bug was fixed but this morning I realised that I was looking at the wrong console. So, in summary. For Matplotlib 0.98.5.2 and Numpy 1.2.1 to work without any problems. This means compiling and using Numpy and Matplotlib on Windows XP 64-bit using AMD 64-bit compile environment, change line 26 in the file MPL_isnan.h from long int to long long.\ I also previously suggested switching MKL and ACML etc. but with this change everything is fine. One can choose any math library and it works. Writing a small test application using sizeof on different platforms highlights the problem. Thanks. George. _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list [email protected] http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
