---------------------------
The files in this directory are close translations of the PLplot demos
written in C (see directory above ../c/). They use the PDL and
PDL::Graphics::PLplot modules distributed with PDL.
Instructions for building and installing Doug Hunt's latest version of
PDL::Graphics::PLplot consistently with the latest version of PLplot
that you have installed.
# PLplot is a prerequisite so install the latest PLplot by running the
# "make install" command _in the PLplot build tree_. N.B. that installation
# is required in order to build and install PDL::Graphics::PLplot.
# Furthermore, that installation is required in order for PLplot builds
# subsequent to the build and install of PDL::Graphics::PLplot to
# be able to detect that module, and thus run the Perl/PDL examples
# that are part of PLplot.
# Adjust this value to the prefix of that PLplot installation.
export PLPLOT_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/software/plplot_svn/installcmake
# Check http://search.cpan.org/~dhunt/PDL-Graphics-PLplot-0.55 to see
# if there is a later version than 0.55 (the latest version at this
# time of writing).
# Adjust this value to the latest version.
export PDL_GRAPHICS_PLPLOT_VERSION=0.55
# Adjust this value to where you want the PDL Graphics PLplot module
# to be installed.
export PDL_GRAPHICS_PLPLOT_PREFIX=/home/software/pdl/install-$PDL_GRAPHICS_PLPLOT_VERSION
# N.B. no adjustments beyond here.
export TARBALL_ROOT_NAME=PDL-Graphics-PLplot-$PDL_GRAPHICS_PLPLOT_VERSION

# Find the equivalent files in your PDL installation. For example, on my
# system the equivalent files are
/usr/lib/perl5/PDL/Graphics/PLplot.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/auto/PDL/Graphics/PLplot
/usr/lib/perl5/auto/PDL/Graphics/PLplot/PLplot.so
/usr/lib/perl5/auto/PDL/Graphics/PLplot/PLplot.bs
# Back those up (so none of your further changes are irrevocable), and
# replace them (probably with the aid of symlinks for convenience). You can
# ignore some of the list you generate with the above find command, but you
# do have to replace/symlink the .../PDL/Graphics/PLplot directory
# and also replace/symlink the individual file,
# .../PDL/Graphics/PLplot.pm.
Testing the Perl/PDL PLplot examples.
1a. Make sure you have set LD_LIBRARY_PATH correctly, see above, and do
not remove the PLplot installation. Otherwise, cmake won't be able to
find the PDL::Graphics::PLplot installation that was just done.
1b. Go ahead and remove the old PLplot installation, and skip version
checks for PDL::Graphics::PLplot using -DSKIP_PDL_CHECK=ON for
cmake step below.
2. Normal cmake step for PLplot build. If you want to do build-tree
tests of Perl/PDl examples, then use the -DBUILD_TEST=ON option.
Check the cmake output to make sure PDL::Graphics::PLplot was found
with correct version if -DSKIP_PDL_CHECK=ON option was not used.
Alternatively, use -DSKIP_PDL_CHECK=ON (see 1b above) which skips
all version checks for PDL::Graphics::PLplot
3. Normal noninteractive test (e.g., ctest in the build tree or
"make test_noninteractive" or "make test_diff_psc" in the build tree).
