PLplot core devs, If there is an interest, I would like to integrate the OCaml bindings I have written for PLplot in to the official source tree. I have tried to structure building these bindings so that this will be relatively straightforward.
I updated the OCaml PLplot bindings to be up to date with version 5.9.0 today in Subversion - http://code.google.com/p/ocaml-plplot/source/browse/trunk/ In addition, I have moved from a completely make-based build to ocamlbuild for most of the process. ocamlbuild is a make/cmake/etc-like build system for OCaml which, among other things, automatically determines dependencies between source files. It is also part of the vanilla OCaml distribution since version 3.10.0. The source code as-is still uses a Makefile to build, but this is just a simple wrapper around ocamlbuild and I think it should be fairly straightforward to move to cmake by someone who knows how to use cmake (I do not, but am willing to help/learn where appropriate). The Makefile sets some environment variables pointing to various libraries and then call ocamlbuild to do the actual compilation, or calls ocamlfind to install the resulting compiled library files to an appropriate location. The Makefile is here: http://code.google.com/p/ocaml-plplot/source/browse/trunk/Makefile If there is an interest in helping me port this Makefile to PLplot's cmake build system and moving the OCaml bindings in to the main tree, please let me know. Thank you for your time and for the wonderful PLplot library. Hez -- Hezekiah M.
