Hi,

Yes, that actually helped, seems to be working now! The initialize function is 
the default one that comes with the thick Ada binding.

Thanks!

Aihe: Re: [Plplot-devel] extcairo w/ GtkAda

    ! By default the "extcairo" driver does not reset the background
    ! This is equivalent to the command line option "-drvopt set_background=1"
    call plsetopt("drvopt", "set_background=1")

    ! The "extcairo" device doesn't read the size from the context.
    write(geometry, "(I0,'x',I0)") width, height
    call plsetopt("geometry",  geometry)

    !  Divide page into 2x2 plots
    call plstar(2,2)

    ! Tell the "extcairo" driver where the context is located. This must be
    ! done AFTER the plstar or plinit call.

    call pl_cmd(PLESC_DEVINIT, cc)


    !  Do a plot
    call plot1()

Since I don't know exactly what is in your Initialize_PLplot; routine, I can't 
tell if the pl_cmd needs to come in there or if it can come after.

Hi,

I’ve been trying to get the extcairo driver to work with GtkAda. I’ve been 
trying to replicate the ext-cairo-test.c example, but I haven’t been yet 
succesful, I get a segfault.. Everything works fine with pdfcairo driver though.

I had to expand the Ada binding a bit, since pl_cmd was not available. Added 
this to plplot_thin.ads:
   procedure pl_cmd(cmd: PLINT; arg : System.Address);
   pragma Import(C, pl_cmd, "pl_cmd");

The code I’m trying is very simple:
…
       function Convert is new Ada.Unchecked_Conversion (Source => 
Cairo_Context,
                                                     Target => System.Address);

…
       — init gtkada etc..
…
       Cr := Cairo.Create (surface);

      Set_Device_Name("extcairo");
      pl_cmd( PLESC_DEVINIT,Convert(Cr) );
      Put_line("Cr "&System.Address_Image(Convert(Cr)));
      Initialize_PLplot;
      Simple_Plot(X=>Pt.X, Y1=>Pt.Y,  X_Label=>To_String(Pt.X_Label),
                  
Y_Label=>To_String(Pt.Y_Label),Title_Label=>To_String(Pt.Title));
      End_PLplot;
..
Simple_Plot segfaults. The address printed looks valid.

I’m developing on OSX, haven’t yet tried on Linux if it makes any difference.

Thoughts?
