Re: [Plplot-general] Win installation

Hi Cao,



Ah, good to hear that! Let me know what you find - I can then update my installation and we could check the Ada binding on Cygwin.



In general it is best to start with a clean slate, but I was not certain it could have this kind of effects ;).



Regards,



Arjen

Ok, cleaning the directory did help. All three commands (cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install ../;
make; make install) completed with no error, and dll's are in place.
Now I need to do some testing with Ada code, but the compilation issue is closed.
Thanks again.

Hi Cao,



Wrt Ada library: that seems to require some fine-tuning on my system, but I do not use Ada myself, so I have not got much experience with that :).



The CMake problem you report is rather odd. CMake tries to find out all manner of things via small test programs, but the messages indicate that that is failing.



Do you start in a clean directory? Should not really matter for this problem, but perhaps it does. I have no ready solution for this, so I am merely searching for a possible workaround/solution.



Regards,



Arjen

Thanks Arjen,
Right, I didn't have the "make". Now I do, and it goes somewhere, but still throws a fatal error:

I'm not so worried about the ada bindings. These normally compile ok under GNAT once the library is in place.

Hi Cao,



Have you installed the make program? In the Cygwin setup program that would be in the category Devel, "make: The GNU version of the 'make' utility" (version 4.2.1-2). You may have to specify more information to build the Ada binding - the GNU Ada compiler on Cygwin has presented us with sufficient problems for me to be a bit wary. I could not find the latest status in my notes just now.



Regards,



Arjen

Hello,
Is it possible to have some more thorough instructions for Win compilation?
I was following the posted instructions, and here' s what I'm getting:

D:\ada\plplot\buildcygwin>cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install ../
CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Unix Makefiles".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need
to select a different build tool.
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
My system is Win 10/Cygwin/GNAT 2016 (Ada).
Thanks in advance.
Cao
