Corrupt file error sounds like you are mixing 64 and 32 bit exes and dlls. I think I've had that error with some libraries before and found that was my mistake.
Is your install bin directory on your path? Do you have any old dlls somewhere that might be on your path? I usually use static libs. I used a dll version of wxwidgets about 6 months ago, so I know things worked back then. But I'm back to using static libs again. I will build a dll version of plplot this evening and send you exactly the commands I used.

I tried to run one of the examples building a VS project and sln. Making sure everything was aligned w/r to he choice x64 I got a corrupted file error. Error LNK1107 invalid or corrupt file: cannot read at 0x310 plplotExamples C:\build-plplot-new-man\dll\csirocsa.dll 1 I am not sure what to do. Looking through some of the old blog posts of the issues I had last year it seems that is was also an issue then. When you do your build were you able to get everything using the sln or did you have to install at the command prompt too. That rings a bell and I think I wound up using nmake. Can you confirm your build/install procedure and perhaps shed some light on why csirocsa.dll would be corrupted? Thank you for your help.

Might be worth noting that I think the naming convention of the libs changed at some point. They used to have a d suffix to indicate using double precision. This has been dropped I think. So you might need to update the lib names in your project.

But I still got an install error in the IDE (sent in a previous email). You had suggested that perhaps I didn't build widgets using 64bit so I decided to purge everything and start over. I built the widgets files using their sln with x64 set. Then built plplot with cmake no problem and widgets was declared ON as expected. Using the IDE and the sln to INSTALL led to hanging and errors three times in a row. After the 3rd time I just looked in the folders and figured if I can find everything I might be okay. My recollection is that this happened last time too (back in 2017). The example I was trying to run was a simple one of my own that plotted various 3-dim mesh surfaces. I did not try to build the official plplot examples yet. Perhaps I should try that first. I don't know if what I've written is helpful in helping you help me get it working.

I still have not gone past the install process in the IDE w/o an error but I seem to have all the headers and dll I need (though I'm not sure if they are corrupted). At present I've decided to move forward with what I have and try a simple example I wrote that worked with my previous config. I get unresolved externals, 14 to be exact. Basically every plplot function I call seems to cause this. A few example are provided. plAlloc2dGrid and all the plstream functions like box3, col0, font, etc. Typically what I cause this it's due to a function declaration in a class that is not defined elsewhere. It "seems like" my new build has the same files as the old one and the projects are comparable (with only diffs being the location of the new folders). Thanks in advance for your help.
