[Gnuplot-info] Compile GNUPLOT ver. 4.2 using VC++ 2008

[Abdul J. N. <nor...@gl...>]

Hi!
 
I'm trying to compile GNUPLOT ver. 4.2 (makefile.cyg) using Visual
Studio C++ 2008 (OS: Windows XP).
 
I created a new project, select Win32 Console Application (application
type: console, empty project) and named my project 'makefile'. Next, I
added a new item (.cpp file) and named my .cpp file 'makefile.cpp'. I
copied & pasted code, & saved the file. Then, I renamed the file to
'makefile.c' and compile it.
 
This is the error that I received:
 
1>------ Build started: Project: makefile, Configuration: Debug Win32
------
1>Compiling...
1>makefile.c
1>c:\gnuplot-4.2.4\src\makefile\makefile.c(1) : fatal error C1021:
invalid preprocessor command 'Hey'
1>Build log was saved at
"file://c:\gnuplot-4.2.4\src\makefile\Debug\BuildLog.htm"
1>makefile - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped
==========
 
 
I even changed the Precompiled Headers setting in properties to Create
Precompiled Header (/Yc) and still received the same error.
 
How could I compile GNUPLOT using VC++ 2008? What are the requirements,
what files do I need and what are the exact steps to do that?
 
Thanks in advanced.

Hello

I have no experience of VC++ make.
However, I pointed out that makefile.cyg is makefiel for mingw on cygwin not for MSVC.

You should use makefile.nt and use command line use of cl.exe etcs.
First you excute cmd.exe. After that you will call 
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat

to set enviromnental variables.
Please change makefile.nt according to your environment.
Please read carefully comments that are written in makefile.nt

Re: [Gnuplot-info] Compile GNUPLOT ver. 4.2 using VC++ 2008

[Abdul J. N. <nor...@gl...>]

Hi!

I've tried that as well, still received the same error since the
compiler doesn't recognize the language

I've as well tried to compile all the C files from gnuplot src folder &
add the header files (H files) in the project Header Files folder..
apparently 'strings.h' and 'iosl.h' files are missing.. where can I get
those files?

Thanks :)

[Tatsuro M. <tma...@ya...>]

Sorry I do not have enough knowledge for msvc build.

There is a possibilty you have to use makefile.msw

I am a mingw+msys user for gnuplot build so that the knowlede of MSVC is limited.

Please wait until MSVC expert will apear.

You're going about this in completely the wrong way.  You have to forget 
about projects, adding files to them, and all that.

Get a text editor and use that to read text files README, INSTALL and 
config\makefile.nt, in that order.  Do what they tell you to.  Exactly.

[Abdul J. N. <nor...@gl...>]

Thanks for ur help.. :) but that will only create an .exe file, isn't it?

What I actually need is to convert gnuplot to ActiveX component (or at least DLL file) in order to embed it to our own application

Is there any way I can do that?

Thanks :)

Hello

Do you want to use gnuplot function from other programs?

The easiest way is to use console gnuplot (current cvs 4.3) and control via pipe.

The console mode 'gnuplot' (not wgnuplot) binaries available from 

http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/development/binaries/

It might have been useful to state that right away, instead of coming up 
with this information after the fact.

> Is there any way I can do that?

Not if you can't even get the .exe to build following given instructions.

Sorry about that :)


>> Not if you can't even get the .exe to build following given instructions.

I've actually followed the instructions a few times, but kept getting this message:

NMAKE: fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\cl.EXE"' : return code '0xc0000135'
Stop.

Any idea?

Thanks
