[matplotlib-devel] Build Failure on Windows using Python25

2009-02-06 Thread Patrick Marsh 
Greetings,

I have previously been able to build matplotlib on my Windows Vista
machine using both Python25 and Python26.  However, after my latest
update to SVN, I'm no longer able to build matplotlib on my Windows
machine (but am with my gentoo box).  Below is the output from the
build log using Python25 (which failed).  Ryan May and I did a little
digging we're thinking that either MSVC doesn't like uint8_t, or it
needs some missing header that isn't already included so that it knows
what unit8_t is.

Has anyone else encountered this problem, and if so, has anyone overcome this?

2009-02-06 Thread Andrew Straw 
Patrick,

Can you see if adding "#include " at the top of src/path.cpp
will do the job?

I'm not super-optimistic, though -- I think this is defined by the C99
standard, which I'm not sure Microsoft supports.

Well, we're also talking about C++ here and not C, so C99 does not apply.  A
quick googling around seems to indicate that some of the open source
compilers support such a type, but it not standardized by C++.

There is no  or the type is not defined in stdint.h?

Maybe as a workaround you could use mingw...

I meant that uint8_t is not a standardized C++ type.  If that's the case,
wouldn't it be better to tweak the code to use something standard rather
than just use a compiler that supports the non-standard type?  Especially
given that the official Python 2.5 build uses this compiler?

Please stick with standard types.

And MSVC 2005 and higher do have C99 support, it is just unfortunate
that it is not complete.

Re: [matplotlib-devel] Build Failure on Windows using Python25

2009-02-06 Thread Michael Droettboom 
Just getting to this thread now -- I think this was introduced in my 
recent changes.  I'm used to being on platforms where this is defined, 
so I forgot that it's not always there.

In this specific case "unsigned char" is probably equivalent everywhere 
we run, so we might as well just do that.  If a Windows user can verify 
that fix works, I'll fix it in SVN.
