Hello Linda, if you use the NMake generator, it should all work: cmake "plplot-src" -G "NMake Makefiles" -DBUILD_TEST=ON To run the examples you need to expand the path with the "dll" subdirectory. We will have to look into the problem with the Visual Studio generator, but for now this ought to be a useable workaround: for your own programs you can still work with Visual Studio, as you can just link against the various libraries.
