[Matplotlib-users] Running matplotlib within a Cocoa application

[Matthew D B. <mat...@gm...>]

Dear all

  Has anyone attempted to use matplotlib within a mac (cocoa) application
before (e.g. using PyRun_SimpleFile or PyRun_SimpleString)?  I can
successfully get get a plot to appear in a new window but when closing this
window the entire application quits without any error.  Looking at the
source code, the macosx backend seems to kill the currently running NSApp.
 Is there a reason for this and is there any way around it?

Many thanks!
