Hello,
Here are my intermediate results using plplot with octave on cygwin :
* cmake.2.4.6 used ;
* plplot5.7.2 re-installed and compilation successfull ;
* octave2.1.73 launched from the cmake building directory/bindings/octave/
with the following results :
octave:1> plplot_stub ;
octave:2> ver = plgver'
error: No such file or directory
error: 'plplot_octave' undefined near line 1604 column 9
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 1604, column 7
error: called from 'plgver'
error: evaluating postfix operator ''' near line 2, column 7
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 2, column 5
octave:2> plinit ;
error: No such file or directory
error: 'plplot_octave' undefined near line 1604 column 9
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 1895, column 1
error: called from 'plinit'
As complementary results, it should be noticed that :
* gnuplot plotting works well with this cygwin/octave version
* building the plplot.5.7.2 distribution with the same instructions, and
using octave with it, works well on Mac Os 10.4....
In hope you will have some ideas on how to solve these troubles,
Best regards,
B.N.
