Hi,
the only thing I want to finish before this release is, that
wxPLplotdemo.cpp is built with the c++ demos during plplot compilation
if BUILD_TEST=ON. Reason is, that the makefile which is generated and
copied during the make install stage only works if pkg-config is
available, which is not the case for Mac OS X and Windows, though it's
possible to install it. But at least for Windows that's not practical.
I tried to modify the makefile so that it works also for windows, but
actually we would need to write a CMakeLists.txt, since you could have
different compiler, etc. In order to advertise plplot on the wxwidgets
mailing list I want to provide a short demo which everybody can try out
easily (which is the case if you manage to compile plplot with wxWidgets
support :) ). Therefore I want to have wxPLplotdemo compiled during the
BUILD_TEST=ON stage (only if wxWidgets was found).
It should be fairly trivial to change the CMakeLists.txt in
examples\c++, but are there any objections to that?
Regards,
Werner
