(sorry if its the second and same mail you've received...) 
 
Hi arjen (and you all plplot-general if this mail succeeds in reaching
you...)! 
 
well, I can now be more precised on the issus I encountered for porting
PDL::Graphics::PLplot 
on cygwin. 
 
Here is my environment: 
 
windaube XP&nbsp; [french joke, like winstinks XP ; ) ] 5.1 build 2600
service pack2 
 
cygwin dll 1.5.18 / shared id cygwin 1S4 
 
perl v5.8.7 build for cygwin 
 
PDL 2.4.2 
 
plplot5.5.3 
 
So, there are strange things during the install of PDL: 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - at perl Makefile.PL 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; it can't find libplplot.dll : actually, libplplot.dll.a
exists so, it finally works if 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - I
"cp libplplot.dll.a libplplot.dll 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; or&nbsp; - I
modify Makefile.PL in /Graphics/PLplot : my $libname =
"libplplotd.dll.a" instead of 
&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; my
$libname = "libplplotd.dll".config("so") 
&nbsp;&nbsp; - finally, it (seems to) work but, at the end of "make": 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; it can't find /blib/script/pdl : actually, "pdl.exe"
exists, so I "cp PDL.exe PDL" ... and it works (?) 
 
&nbsp; - make install : all (seems to be) is ok 
 
&nbsp;- perldl inline command works: 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; perldl&gt; $x = sequence 3,4 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; perldl&gt; set $x, 2,1,99 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; perldl&gt; p $x 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [ 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [ 0&nbsp; 1&nbsp; 2] 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [ 3&nbsp; 4 99] 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [ 6&nbsp; 7&nbsp; 8] 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [ 9 10 11] 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ] 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (from <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
 href="http://www.us025.ird.fr/article.php3?id_article=17">http://www.us025.ird.fr/article.php3?id_article=17</a>) 
 
Now, the problem is: 
&nbsp;perl -v "use PDL::Graphics::PLplot;" 
&nbsp;can't load
'/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin/auto/PDL/Graphics/PLplot/PLplot.dll'
for module PDL/Graphics/PLplot: 
no such file or directory in Dynaloader.pm line 230 
 
(line 230 of Dynaloader:; my $libref = dl_load_file( [...] )&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ) 
 
But
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin/auto/PDL/Graphics/PLplot/PLplot.dll
exists (libPLplot.dll.a too) and is non void!!! 
 
I didn't find any similar situation neither on the web nor in forums
and i can't remember the number of (re)installation of 
the whole config (including cygwin)&nbsp;&nbsp; : ( 
 
any suggestions will be welcomed as the first day of spring after a
long and cold winter : p, 
 
regards, 
 
bruno
