I don't have an opinion on the plot itself, but regarding the test_c_wxwidgets 
test, it would be a good idea to put a simple
sleep(1) 
betwwen each test so we can see that it's doing what it should do

I tried on my linux 16.04, same results as CentOS (I don'have the 14.04 and 
debian anymore)

  That looks promising 😊

   

  To answer your questions Alan (sorry for top posting, but I'm on my phone)

   

    1.. Yes that is the expected output, although the window titles should be 
different. But actually it may be nicer to at least use 2 different curves. An 
easy change. What do you think?
    2.. Will do, plus this all really needs properly adding to the docs. I will 
try to do that asap.

  To Phil and Pedro:

   

  @Phil:

   

  The test_c_wxwidgets and test_wxPLplotDemo targets worked without

  issues here.  So we now have three good tests on Linux and one good

  test on Windows.  So this indeed seems promising as a solution to

  this release critical bug, and I thank you for this timely

  release-critical bug fixing.

   

  @Both:

   

  To finish off this topic for the release I need some more from both

  of you.

   

  @Phil:

   

  1. It sounded from your description that you were changing the example

  to try two different methods of generating those plots so it makes

  sense that test_wxPLplotDemo now produces two identical plots for me,

  but please confirm that the two plots I observed are the intended

  effect.

   

  2. Please commit a change to README.release describing what you have

  done to deal with this bug equivalent to what Pedro wrote up for his

  solution.

   

  @Pedro: I think your current CentOS test is equivalent to just

  building the test_wxPLplotDemo target?  Please extend that test to

  building the test_c_wxwidgets target as well. You were already

  planning to test Phil's solution on all the Linux platforms accessible

  to you, but please do the full test (build both the test_wxPLplotDemo

  and test_c_wxwidgets targets) for all Linux platforms.  And similarly

  for your Windows platforms.  There, the convenient test_* targets

  won't work so you will have to do the equivalent by hand (run

  wxPLplotDemo and run several C examples with -dev wxwidgets). Finally,

  please also test your own software projects that link with the

  plplotwxwidgets library on all platforms where you expect your own

  software projects to currently work.  (I assume that is just Windows,

  but please test on at least one Linux platform as well if you

  expect your software to work on both Windows and Linux.)

   

  Every tested platform that you add gives us just that much further

  confidence that Phil's solution is robust for this release, and I

  thank you in advance for all this essential testing work for our

  release.

   

  Alan
