Hi Alan (I guess this is your expertise) I've just tried to build plplot on a new Windows system and I am getting problems. After some digging I found that the issue is that my home directory (where all my libraries are stored and where I am building plplot) contains a hyphen with a space either side. Specifically it is C:\Users\<my_username>\Onedrive - <my_employer>\Documents\usr\... I would imagine I'm not the only person who has hit this problem as this is the name that seems to be given by default when using Ondedrive for business. This filename then interacts with the logic in cmake_link_flags - see plplot/modules/cmake/pkg-config.cmake line 261, which replaces " -" with ";-". This splits all my library paths in two and obviously causes errors. I'm not really sure what to do about this? Any suggestions? >>AM:: I have the same pattern in my home directory, but I never build any >>software there 😊. We did do a test with directories have spaces and IIRC, we >>sorted out the problems this was causing. Just checked: I did that test in >>November last year and as I have the examples there, it must not have been a >>problem. I do have an odd subdirectory, "d*" (where the asterisk is actually >>a centred dot). That is due to trying to install PLplot, not juist build it. >>If the pattern you describe causing problems and a simple directory name like >>"build with spaces" (the name I used) does not, there are still some issues >>to solve.
