[Gnuplot-info] crash of gd

[Axel B. <new...@th...>]

Hi folks,

I did succeed in compiling gnuplot for windows including libgd. I simply
commented out the setmode() line in the io.h include file of windows,
and the compiler did not complain any more.

BUT as I said the application crashes ... . EVEN with the /MD switch.

Now I have done a little bit of debugging, and I have some steps in
reproducing the error:

1. start wgnuplot
2. enter the sequence:
	set output "test.jpg"
	set term jpeg
	plot sin(x)
3. it will crash then in gd.trm, line 1755, calling gdImageJpg.

according to ms visual studio the 2nd parameter (gpoutfile) is faulty -
it's always the value 0x000010, one time it was 0x000005.

ookay so far. If I could get this sorted out ... well, let's just say
I'd be happy ;-)


so if ANYONE out there has any idea of what's going wrong, where
gpoutfile is set, and how I could solve this (I did link against /MD
just as suggested from the programmers), I would be really happy.



thanks, greetings and ciao,

axel.
