Hi Phil
Yes, my explanation was not very clear.
I know that I have to do what you mentioned, I do call Create().
Actually I am copying the code from wxPLplotDemo.cpp
but let's forget this thread, when something is failing for several days,
and I don't know why,
what I do is delete everything and start from scratch.
So, the scratch here is to build and run wxPLplotDemo.cpp from the PLplot
distribution
I did that, but it am having a seg fault :-)
I''ll just start a new thread with the debug results
thanks
-Pedro
