[Plplot-devel] Configuration question for Linux: how not to use -rpath?

2015-02-20 Thread Arjen Markus
Hi everyone, I want to build PLplot on Linux in such a way that all the components (drivers and supporting libraries like nn and csa) are retrieved via the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. The path must not be hard-coded. What CMake do we have for that? Regards, Arjen DISCLAIMER: This messag

[Plplot-devel] Revamping plmeta format

2015-02-20 Thread Jim Dishaw
I've gone through the coordinate transformation and where/how it is applied in the library. The coordinates that are stored in the plot buffer can be best described as "device virtual pixels" and the definition is not necessarily consistent across all the devices. I don't think that is a show s

[Plplot-devel] Updates to test_diff.sh script

2015-02-20 Thread Andrew Ross
I've made some updates to the test_diff.sh script so you can now call it with the --device= option to specify a device other than psc you want to compare. I've not (yet) incorporated all this more generalised logic in the cmake tests, but you can run it in the examples directory. I've done this
