Re: [Plplot-general] wingcc drivers fails to build on Windows 7 64bit/VC

[Alessandro P. <la...@gm...>]

Hi Arjen,
i just pulled from git, it builds fine but still crashes when I run the examples.
I built it using visual studio x64 tools, on windows 7 64.
If I can help you to identify the problem, I'll be glad to.

Cheers,
Alessandro
