Re: [Plplot-general] PLplot+wxWidgets+MinGW+Windows10

[David B. <stu...@gm...>]

Vadim,

Thank you.  I had installed using codeblocks-17.12mingw-nosetup.zip 
which comes with the MinGW compiler (circa 12/2017).  If I understand 
your comment correctly the bug will not be released until later, or is 
there an existing patch?  Rather than edit plplot source might it be 
better do grab the most recent compiler or is that not stable?  Doing 
the rand fix just exposed another bug related to seed (see below).  Is 
there a list of all possible changes needed?  Or is it safe to say any 
related to the _WIN32 condition, or rand() generators?

David
