I recently downloaded PLplot to use with wxWidgets, along with CMake. I followed the directions on the SourceForge site https://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/wiki/Configure_PLplot_for_the_Visual_Studio_IDE/, and it all seemed to work. When I opened the sln for Debug and Release folders and tried to build INSTALL each produced some successful builds but also 75 failed builds. Since I'm new to using PLplot I am not sure if the successful items are enough to proceed.
In addition, the instructions in the above blog indicate that sln files should exist in the examples and could be opened and run. This doesn't seem to be the case.
For background purposes, I'm working on a GUI and want scientific plots to be included in a panel in the GUI. wxWidgets has been easy to, install, set up, and learn but adding plots has been a mess. I've tried gnuplot with gnuplot-iostream, GTKmm, MLplot, and a few other, all have been a failure (mostly to set up and get all libs to play well together). This install is the closest to success so far. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm using MS VS 2017 in Windows 8 (8.1).
