Re: [Plplot-devel] About svg

Hi Phil, With some additional analysis from Laurent we were able to track down the cause: The routine rd_data() in plbuf.c is reading a U_CHAR value, whereas the width has been changed to a floating-point number. Changing the type solves the problem: switch ( op ) { case

Hi Arjen I had a look at this as well this morning and found the same thing, I thought I sent an email out, but I just found that email waiting in my drafts folder - oops. At least we found the same problem :-) I agree that the line rd_data( pls, (pls-width), sizeof(pls-width); would be best as

Hi Phil, Forgot your last question: For regular builds I use the nmake utility but if I need to trace some nasty bug then I do indeed rely on the IDE and the debugger – but quite often the venerable print method also works ;). Regards, Arjen From: phil rosenberg

[Plplot-devel] Trying to understand how git workflow for CMake is enforced

2014-08-15 Thread Alan W. Irwin
Hi Hazen: Earlier today I sent an e-mail to Brad King, the CMake git guru (with CC to you to keep you fully informed) asking how they implemented the enforcement hooks in their git repo to maintain the desired --first-parent properties of the integration branches used in their workflow. Assuming

Yeah, I think you are correct about an example. I don't really use plreplot - I think mostly because when I first started using Plplot I noticed the lack of font support, but that was before I started digging into the code. I presume it gets well used by the interactive drivers. It certainly
