[Gnuplot-bugs] Visual Studio 2008 - solution

[Thoralf B. <Th...@t-...>]

Hi guys,

I had to compile the sources on Vista using VS 2008. Some changes were
neccesary in the makefile and in config.h. See attached files for
details. The new makefile is named makefile.VC2008. Following the
content of the Readme:

******************
Changes to compile with Visual Studio 2008

10.08.2008, Thoralf Baum
========================

1.) config.h, line 535, #define vsnprintf _vsnprintf
This definintion seems not to work with the 2008 compiler. Commented it
out, seems ok.

2.) Executables using DLLs and compiled with VC2008 need the manifest
file to be merged into the binary.
According to Microsoft some changes have to be made within the makefile:
see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235560.aspx
and
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235591.aspx

I'v done those changes and put the result into the file makefile.VC2008,
whis is based on the makefile.nt. The other
"makefilexxx" will be included by the makefile.VC2008.

3.) Inserted the paths of gdwin32 and pdflib headers and libs, assuming
the downloaded packsges are placed under /src



Thank You for gnuplot! It is a very helpful tool.
