Either disable the dynamic driver creation by setting a cmake option (-DENABLE_DYNDRIVERS=OFF) or add the dll directory to your PATH environment variable. DLLs must be either in the current directory, in the PATH or in a system directory. So if DLLs are spread around the build tree you'll get into problems soon. So we decided to put every dll into on place and adding the directory to the PATH variable is then needed. > > . > > > The second build regression I see is caused by your rev 9753 not being > reverted yet: > > x12c.c > L:\PLplot-rev9787\examples\c\x12c.c(65) : warning C4013: 'snprintf' > undefined; assuming extern returning int > Linking C executable x12c.exe > x12c.c.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _snprintf > referenced in function _main > x12c.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals > > Cmake says: > -- Looking for snprintf > -- Looking for snprintf - not found > -- Looking for _snprintf > -- Looking for _snprintf - found > > > Best Regards, > Robert Strange, I'm using the same compiler without this problem. I'll revert the changes though.
