You need a working MinGW installation. Start the command line interface (NOT MSYS) and issue the following commands:

cd plplot
mkdir buildmingw
cd buildmingw
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install ..
mingw32-make
mingw32-make install

This will build a shared plplot library and install all files into the directory plplot\buildmingw\install. The following options are available for cmake:

  • -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF: static build of plplot
  • -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON: makefiles provide verbose informations
  • -DBUILD_TEST=ON: all examples will be built also (for test purposes)
  • Configuration of wxWidgets driver

If you used the -DBUILD_TEST=ON option, you need to copy some files in order to run the examples:

cd examples\c
copy ..\..\..\data\*.fnt .

and additionally some dlls for a shared plplot built:

copy ..\..\src\libplplotd.dll .
copy "..\..\bindings\c++\libplplotcxxd.dll" . (for c++ examples)
copy ..\..\lib\csa\libcsirocsa.dll . (if library as built)

and for the wxWidgets driver (if wxWidgets library is shared):

copy %WXWIN%\lib\gcc_dll\wxmsw26d_gcc_custom.dll .

if this dll is not in the path.
