Interesting. I'm using a newer version than you and I did download the most
recent SDK. But it's worth trying with a different version to rule that
out.Thanks David Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

Unfortunately this new build produced the exact same error for the
plplot examples, namely heap issue related to ntdll.dll upon
calling "delete pls", deletion of the pl stream.
This type of thing is beyond me. If anyone has more suggestions
I would appreciate it.
Thank you,

I did got some other folks chiming in and the consensus is that
my system may be hosed. I've been trying to get the same config

failing to build the dyndriver test project. I have answered

Hi David
Sorry
I've not been back to you again on this. I've been away with
work and had a week laid up with flu.
For your
dll build. Can you open the plplot.sln. Where it says platform
at the top, check it says x64. If you hit the drop down, the
only option should be x64.
[BD] Yes, everything was x64.
How have
you created the sln for the example? Did you do it manually or
using the -DBUILD_TEST=ON option with cmake?
[DB] I did it manually.
If you
did it manually then check the x64 is set in your example at
the top when you open it in visual studio.
[DB] Yes, x64 was the choice.
If this
doesn't work then try emptying your build directory and
rerunning cmake including the test option from above.
[DB] I did try that and having -DBUILD_TEST=ON causes the build to
fail.
Now when
you open the plplot.sln file you will find a set of example
projects in the solution explorer. Try right clicking and
building one of these.
Some
other things you can try:
Install
dependency walker and run this on your example executable - it
should show you the dlls it is using which might give you a
clue.
[DB] I'll give this a try. I've never used it.
Try
using the "where" command from the command line. Something
like
where
plplot.dll
Should
list all instances of plplot.dll on your path. You may wish to
run this from the working directory of your example - I'm not
sure, but maybe it makes a difference.
Hope
that helps you make progress.

Hello,
I wanted to reach out, yet again, to try and resolve some
of the issues I'm having with getting plplot to install and
work. I really don't know why this has been so difficult.
Based on some advice I received reaching out to the widgets
and plplot user groups and my own review of my system I
decided to completely delete my current plplot and wxwidgets
builds and start over.
This is for my Windows 8.1 laptop using VS 2017, x64. I
also removed every occurrence of older versions of widgets
and plplot even though I made sure they were not in the
path. So I started with a completely clean system in this
regard.
I installed wxwidgets using the sln provided and that went
without any issue.
The I built and installed plplot using cmake followed by
the sln without any trouble at all.
I made sure both were built with the x64 (64 bit) option
chosen so as to not mix 32 and 64 bit.
Trying to build and run one of the plplot examples (x64
option) leads to the following:
(1) dynamic linking causes a corrupt dll error (likely
cause 32 and 64 mix, but I can't see how that is).
(2) static linking works! but I still get a system crash
upon closing the terminal.
I cannot offer more than what I've provided in previous
email threads. It seems that there are a few things I'm
doing wrong but I just cannot see based on following the
directions, or there is a bad combo of packages, SDK
toolkit, and OS.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Corrupt file error sounds like you are mixing 64 and 32

libraries before and found that was my mistake.
Is
your install bin directory on your path? Do you have any
old dlls somewhere that might be on your path?
I
usually use static libs. I used a dll version of wxwidgets
about 6 months ago, so I know things worked back then. But
I'm back to using static libs again. I will build a dll
version of plplot this evening and send you exactly the
commands I used.

Phil,
I've gotten a little further. I tried to run one of
the examples building a VS project and sln. Making sure
everything was aligned w/r to he choice x64 I got a
corrupted file error.
Error LNK1107 invalid or corrupt file: cannot
read at 0x310 plplotExamples
C:\build-plplot-new-man\dll\csirocsa.dll 1
I am not sure what to do. Looking through some of the
old blog posts of the issues I had last year it seems
that is was also an issue then.
When you do your build were you able to get everything
using the sln or did you have to install at the command
prompt too. That rings a bell and I think I wound up
using nmake.
Can you confirm your build/install procedure and
perhaps shed some light on why csirocsa.dll would be
corrupted?
Thank you for your help.

Hi David
Sounds like either one of the libs has
been forgotten, or you are building a 32bit exe and
trying to link to the 64 bit libs you just built.
Might be worth noting that I think the
naming convention of the libs changed at some point.
They used to have a d suffix to indicate using double
precision. This has been dropped I think. So you might
need to update the lib names in your project.

Phil,
As per our last correspondence I had succeeded in
getting the widgets headers and drivers built when I
changed from Win64 to no Win64. But I still got an
install error in the IDE (sent in a previous
email). You had suggested that perhaps I didn't
build widgets using 64bit so I decided to purge
everything and start over. I built the widgets
files using their sln with x64 set. Then built
plplot with cmake no problem and widgets was
declared ON as expected. Using the IDE and the sln
to INSTALL led to hanging and errors three times in
a row. After the 3rd time I just looked in the
folders and figured if I can find everything I might
be okay. My recollection is that this happened last
time too (back in 2017).
The example I was trying to run was a simple one of
my own that plotted various 3-dim mesh surfaces.
I did not try to build the official plplot examples
yet. Perhaps I should try that first.
I don't know if what I've written is helpful in
helping you help me get it working.

All,
I have made some progress with building and
installing the new plplot
with a new wxwidets using VS 2017.
I still have not gone past the install process
in the IDE w/o an error
but I seem to have all the headers and dll I
need (though I'm not sure
if they are corrupted).
At present I've decided to move forward with
what I have and try a
simple example I wrote that worked with my
previous config.
I get unresolved externals, 14 to be exact.
Basically every plplot
function I call seems to cause this. A few
example are provided.
plAlloc2dGrid
and all the plstream functions like box3,
col0, font, etc.
Typically what I cause this it's due to a
function declaration in a
class that is not defined elsewhere.
It "seems like" my new build has the same
files as the old one and the
projects are comparable (with only diffs being
the location of the new
folders).
Thanks in advance for your help.
David
