Werner, Thanks for the response. I was using the project files created by cmake. I did not use "NMake Makefiles".
I am using VC++ 2005 Express on Windows XP. I was totally lost with cmake. When I used command-line version of cmake, just as described on plplot wiki, it just does not work. It sometimes looks for the free version of VC++ (VC++ 2003), which I have never installed. Or sometimes, it looks my system as a 64bit system which is also wrong. I could not figure out what the problem is. Then I decided to try the GUI-version of cmake. When I choose building for "NMake Makefiles", it just could not find "cl" and "rc", even after I have explicitly selected the cl.exe and rc.exe in options. When I switch to building for VC++ 2005, it works oddly: When I clicked on the "config" button the 1st time, it gave the error message. But when I clicked on "config" button again, the "Ok" button would be enabled. I clicked on "OK", and got all the project files for VC++ 2005. So I compiled these project files with VC++. The major part of the build seems fine except the one fail. It seems to me that cmake is problematic with VC++ 2005. I am still confused... Thanks for your help anyway.
