Re: [Plplot-general] PLplot on OSX and wxwidgets

[Werner S. <sm...@ia...>]

Hi Ty,

regarding the warnings: the only warning which concerns the wxwidgets 
driver is about the agg library. But you don't need it, it's only for 
antialized output and can be added later, after you solved all the 
primary problems. The qhull library is useful for surface plots, I 
think, but is not mandatory. All other warnings are regarding interfaces 
to different languages (f95, phyton, ...) since you use c++ and 
wxwidgets, they are of no interest.

Regarding the crash of the wxwidgets driver. I have to admit, that the 
last time I checked the wxwidgets driver on Mac OSX was about 2 years 
ago on a 700Mhz G3, Mac OSX 10.4, everything was so slow, that it was no 
fun to develop. It worked back than, but there were many changes to the 
driver till than, so it's very likely that the wxwidgets driver is 
broken on Mac OS X, though it works on Linux and Windows. So far the bad 
news. Good news is, that I already have a nice new shiny iMac and just 
need to set up everything for plplot, so I can check it soon and see if 
there is a serious problem. I'll try to have a look at it as soon as 
possible.

Regards,
Werner
