Arjen or Alan: I got the file to compile. I noted it in a separate email to the
general list. My file compiles and will execute except, in the console that is
in the execution, I get the following error:
****** PlPlot error: Aborting operation ****
plInitDispatchTable: could not open drivers directory, aborting operation
My file is actually example x11c with the text of the title of the graph
altered so that it can be run as a sample to work out all of the compiling and
linking issues.
In actuality, the renamed example will work if I place it in the following
directory:
C:\build-plplot\examples\c\Debug\. It executes then -- without the
plInitDisaptch etc. error.
Also, I tried copying all the executables of the examples in c (x01c.exe
through x34c.exe) and placing them in a separate test directory, and I got the
same error with the PlInitDispatchTAble: could not open drivers directory, etc.
To be able to operate my eventual compiled files and the executables, I need to
be able to install them in an arbitrarily named directory etc.
Can someone help me find what to change to get rid of the "plInitDispatchTable:
could not open drivers directory" error?
