Re: [Plplot-devel] plbuffer bug

Hi Alan, Jim I don't think the size impact of storing everything as a ucs4 string is a big deal. Most text stored will be single character points. But we already have overheads for storing the position, rotation, style, font, etc. So for a 1 byte ascii character we probably already store 20 or

Hi Alan ok, I will reformat the commit message later today. since I am not that familiar with git to do the amend, I'll just create a new branch and do the same commit with the message you sent in the last email that's a good idea to have messages as detailed as possible, -Pedro -

Re: [Plplot-devel] wxPLplotDemo.cpp -- linux build error

Hmm - well another theory down in smoke. Attached is an absolute minimum example of the use of wxEVT_CREATE. On Windows I get the expected behaviour of a popup dialog appearing before the frame saying "OnCreate called." Could you try it on one of your Linux machines? I'm afraid it's way past my

Alan All my linux failures were on 3 different "real" machines (CentOS with personal wxwidgets 3.1 build, 2 ubuntus 14.04 16.4 from packages) the 4th linux failure was on a debian I installed on VirtualBox. So, it's not a VirtualBox issue. -Pedro - Original Message - From: "Alan W.

Unfortunately I don't think I have enough space to install virtualbox. I presume I need a few 10s of GB for an Ubuntu install? I have also just tried on the Bash on Ubuntu on Windows (still trying to decide if I like this or Cygwin best. Anyway...). Again everything works fine on this (I'm using

Re: [Plplot-devel] wxPLplotDemo.cpp -- linux build error

Hi Pedro, Alan I'm still unable to reproduce the problem on my Ubuntu 14.04 system with wxWidgets 3.0. Very strange. I have tried a totally fresh build directory and static and dynamic builds. I had forgotten to test on my work CentOS PC and although I know it is powered on I can't ssh into it.

[Plplot-devel] More on the -dev wxwidgets long pause issue

Hi Pedro: I thought your fix and/or the additional debugging output it produces might yield some insight into the long-pause issue that still remains. So here is the most recent debugging output result for conditions (a quick repeat of an example) that always cause the long pause issue here.

[Plplot-devel] plbuffer bug

Hi All I've just posted a bug to the bug tracker regarding the buffer. I just wanted to send an email out to say that I don't particularly intend to fix it before the freeze as I don't think there is time. But I wanted to stick it on the tracker so it didn't get forgotten. The problem is that

Re: [Plplot-devel] wxPLplotDemo.cpp -- FIXED

Hi Alan Success The solution is to override the Show() function of the window, that is called in the demo. So no need to modify the demo at all with a custom function call. in wxPLplotwindow.h I just added this function template bool wxPLplotwindow::Show(bool show) {
