Hi Alan, okay, at the very least this error is consistent, so that should make it easier to hunt down. I think I have some opportunity tonight to further investigate this and other Windows matters. Will keep you posted. Regards, Arjen On 2010-12-15 21:21, Alan W. Irwin wrote: > On 2010-12-15 08

Hi Alan, my guess here is that PLplot itself is limiting the file name. I have not had a chance yet to check this theory, but when I used the relative very much shorter path, it all worked fine. (The output from the script shows the entire path, so that is not truncated) Regards, Arjen On 2010-

Hi Arjen: Using revision 11364 of comprehensive_test.sh with all tests excluded other than the test_noninteractive target for the build tree with shared libraries, a minimalist (just C, C++, and Fortran 77 and a few device drivers like ps with no external dependencies) _parallel_ build now works f

Hi Alan, thanks for reviewing these messages. I have worked on plstring and plstring3 for Fortran and Tcl, but not everything is done yet. pllegend is more of a challenge as it uses an aray of strings - the first occurrence as far as I am aware of that in PLplot. Anyway, I should be able to take c

Hi Alan, I tested this, but it did not work! I got the same problem. With the information you gave me, I checked Tcl example x14. From the command-line all seems to be quite okay - it wants two file names. Also "echo aa |pltcl x14 -dev psc -o bb" works. Very odd! I will continue without Tcl for

Hi Alan, got it! The path is extended using the Windows convention, whereas it should be the MinGW/Linux-like convention. The result is: This is the current directory: /d/plplot-svn/plplot/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/build_tree/examples/tcl And this is the (first) part of the PATH var
