Re: [Plplot-general] Building plplot on Windows 10

[Walt B. <wal...@gm...>]

Trying with MSYS2 gives me:

$ ../../Cmake/*/bin/cmake -G "Unix Makefiles"
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF ../plplot.git
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!
See also "C:/walt/Software/Plplot/build_dir/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
=======================================================

With Cygwin, the result files are attached.

There are messages about pango and cairo and
CMake Error at C:/cygwin/lib/cmake/Qt5Svg/Qt5SvgConfig.cmake:27 (message):
  The imported target "Qt5::Svg" references the file

     "C:/cygwin/include/qt5/"

My C:\cygwin does not contain an "include" directory at all.

(I think) I have installed ALL of cygwin.

Any other suggestions? Thanks.
