I think there is a very good chance that the Ada language as implemented by gnat has different sizes for floats and especially integers than PLplot so maybe that is the source of the problem here. Recall that for the default PL_DOUBLE case, PLFLT is a double. Also, for platforms (32-bit or 64-bit) with access to stdint.h, PLINT is a 32-bit integer (int32_t, see include/plplot.h). My feeling is stdint.h (e.g., access to the C99 standard) is pretty common. Anyhow, it is available on my 64-bit computer. Thus, if Ada is assuming a 64-bit integers on 64-bit platforms, that would not be the same size as PLINT on my computer. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
