I use PLplot in a Windows application for plotting frequency response Bode plots from oscilloscope data. It's worked out nicely. One enhancement I'm tackling is getting better font support as well as anti -aliasing. Currently, I'm using the mem driver. I take the buffer and transform it for GDI display. I am aware of the wingcc driver, but I'd prefer to paint to my window vs creating a new one. After some research, I decided that memcairo would be the best approach. After struggling a bit to get PLplot built with cairo/pango, I did get it to work. In the process I came to realize that I'd need to package about a dozen DLLs with my app. While I realize I'm probably swimming upstream I then set out to make static builds of cairo, pango and its dependencies. Even if this works, it will probably bloat my app considerably. So my question is ... is there another driver I should explore that may be better suited for the task at hand. Or should I just suck it up and package the DLLs? Also, I do plan to make this multiplatform some day.
Thanks!
