Subject: RE: [Perldl] PDL::Graphics::Gnuplot


Rob did you ever get the module to build on the win32 system? I have the MinGW environment installed and I just tried it with the latest tarball and have the same results as yours below. Does it have to be built from within the Perl tree - I did it from the extracted directory in my Downloads directory.


No, I didn't get anywhere with it - though I haven't spent much time on it. (It doesn't have to be built within the Perl tree - in fact it's best if you don't do that. Building, as you did, in your Downloads directory is fine.)

Afaik, the error comes from perl itself. It's one I've come across before. The "list form of pipe" is apparently not implemented on MS Windows - so the piping in Gnuplot.pm has to be rewritten if the module is to work on that OS. I guess that's somewhere between a trivial to impossible task. I've not directly used pipes before, and I didn't go looking to see how difficult/easy the task of porting Gnuplot.pm to Windows might be.

Cheers,
Rob
