Re: [Plplot-devel] Progress with Cygwin to build PLplot

[Arjen M. <arj...@de...>]

Hi Alan,

I had to tweak things a bit, but the build succeeded:
- The path to the Tcl include files had to be changed to
   /cygdrive/c/tcl/include (was: C:/tcl/include and the
   colon clashes with the syntax of Makefiles)
- I had to add a path to all separate DLLs to make
   test-drv-info do its job
- I had to change an include file in wingcc.c (instead of
   tchar.h include winnt.h and define _T())

I think we need to collect the DLLs for the Cygwin case,
just as we do for the Windows and MinGW cases, in a single
subdirectory. I will look at this later.

Regards,

Arjen
