[Plplot-devel] Building shared library on win32

2007-01-05 Thread Jim Dishaw
Has anyone had success in building the shared library version on win32 using Visual Studio (or any compiler)--I encounter two problems. The first problem occurs if I do not build the static version first (-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF) /out:..\..\dll\plplotf77d.dll /dll /STACK:1000 /machine:I386

[Plplot-devel] Freeing plbuf_buffer

2006-12-15 Thread Jim Dishaw
