Hi Chen,
I found the receipe to get this working, but it is not entirely trivial - which is a soemwhat nasty and confusing surprise. Here it is: - Copy the relevant files into one or more directories that you are going to refer to - Use the sequence of commands like this: set env(PATH) "path-to-dlls;$env(PATH)" set env(PLPLOT_DRV_DIR) path-to-drvinfo-files set env(PLPLOT_LIB) path-to-pal-files lappend auto_path path-to-dlls package require Pltcl load plplottcltk.dll Pltcl ... PLplot is ready I tested this with the DLLs in a directory "bin" under the directory where I started tclsh, the driver-info-files in a directory "drivers" and the font and palette files in a directory "data". It is not necessary to separate them like that, but for testing purposes it was easier to do it this way. I have attached the listing of the files for your convenience as well as the small start-up script. Notes: - If you run the [package require] command it complains that it can not find the loadable drivers. That is why the explicit [load] is necessary. You need the combination for some, as yet unexplored, reason. - Under the build tree this procedure is not necessary - just let auto_path point to the right directory and do [package require]. - With this set-up it is easier to distribute your program or package in a way that is more compliant to the usual way of distributing Tcl programs/packages.

I will have to use a different one. Will keep you posted. Regards, Arjen From: Shen-Yeh Chen [mailto:shenyeh_c...@hotmail.com] Sent: Monday, April 27, 2015 8:24 PM To: Arjen Markus; Alan W.

I put plplottcltkd.dll under the directory of my version of tclsh.exe (and also tk.dll), and then load plplottcltkd.dll Pltcl But I got this error message: couldn't load library "plplottcltkd.dll" : this library or a dependency library could not be found in library path I think I have not configured/installed it right. Any suggestion here ?

Now we are getting somewhere. The easiest next step is to get PLplot installed: nmake install That should place the relevant files under c:\program files [(x86)]\plplot (I never know which of the two). Then set the auto_path variable to include that directory: lappend auto_path "c:/program files/plplot/..." I can't check it exactly at the moment, so this is merely a sketch ;) Regards, Arjen From: Shen-Yeh Chen [mailto:shenyeh_c...@hotmail.com] Sent: Saturday, April 11, 2015 7:58 PM To: Alan W.

For some specific reason I do have to use my own built version of Tcl, so this is what I have done 1. I copy tchsh86t.exe to tchsh.exe, and copy tcl86t.lib to tcl86.lib 2. the following commands are used to call cmake and nmake. And I have attached their output here too. set PATH=%PATH%;c:/DISK0001/Optimizer01/Worksp/SOURCE/Tcltk/Tcltk_8_6_0/tcl/win/Install_AMD64/bin set CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=c:/DISK0001/Optimizer01/Worksp/SOURCE/Tcltk/Tcltk_8_6_0/tcl/win/Install_AMD64/include set CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=c:/DISK0001/Optimizer01/Worksp/SOURCE/Tcltk/Tcltk_8_6_0/tcl/win/Install_AMD64/lib cmake "C:/DISK0001/Optimizer01/Worksp/SOURCE/plplot/plplot-5.10.0/SOURCE" -G "NMake Makefiles" -DPL_DOUBLE=ON -DLIB_TAG="sud" -DBUILD_TEST=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="C:\DISK0001\Optimizer01\Worksp\SOURCE\plplot\plplot-5.10.0\INSTALL" -DCMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES="Release" -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DSTATIC_RUNTIME=ON -DENABLE_tcl=ON -DTCL_LIBRARY_VERSION=86t > log_cmake04_tcl.out 2>&1 nmake > log_nmake04_tcl.out Now the problem is......where do I find the .dll of plplot, that I can load into tcl ?
