Compile gnuplot in VC++ IDE

Question

I am trying to compile GNUPlot -5.2.2 in C++ within a VS2008 project/solution but get numerous fatal errors C1083 cannot open include file. Some of these files do exist in the project after being copy/pasted into the solution but others don't.

strings.h, term_api.h and X11/Xos.h result in the following errors and despite an extensive Google search I cannot determine which library/source to get these from:

Error	1	fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'strings.h': No such file or directory	c:\users\paul\qsync\programming\gnu plot\gnuplot-5.2.2\src\stdfn.h	55

<pre>Error	84	fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'term_api.h': No such file or directory	c:\users\paul\qsync\programming\gnu plot\gnuplot-5.2.2\src\win\wgnuplib.h	53

<pre>Error	46	fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'X11/Xos.h': No such file or directory	c:\users\paul\qsync\programming\gnu plot\gnuplot-5.2.2\src\gplt_x11.c	106

The other errors are as follows but version.h, stdfn.h and syscfg.h exist and have been pasted into the solution:

Error	12	error C2065: 'EXIT_FAILURE' : undeclared identifier	c:\users\paul\qsync\programming\gnu plot\gnuplot-5.2.2\src\bf_test.c	122

Error	60	fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'version.h': No such file or directory	c:\users\paul\qsync\programming\gnu plot\gnuplot-5.2.2\src\win\pgnuplot.c	139

Error	68	fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stdfn.h': No such file or directory	c:\users\paul\qsync\programming\gnu plot\gnuplot-5.2.2\src\win\screenbuf.c	45

Error	85	fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'syscfg.h': No such file or directory	c:\users\paul\qsync\programming\gnu plot\gnuplot-5.2.2\src\win\wgraph.c	43

It would appear that I have to obtain another library/locate it on my PC and include the path but am at a loss as to why I can't find these.

What I have tried:

GNUPlot comes with a makefile for compiliation with VC++ which I have run from the VS2008 Command Prompt. The project does compile satisfactorily by this method but I specifically want a workable solution in the VS2008 IDE that compiles so that I can modify the code. I do not want to use GNUPlot using pipes cin/cout or system(gnuplot) calls.

The makefile must contain the information I require as it compiles ok but decoding it is beyond me. I have pasted the makefile code below. Any help sorting this out or telling me how I can compile GNUPlot in the IDE would be greatly appreciated.

# John Bollinger bbands@yahoo.com, 4 March 2002:
#   Added png support with zlib and libpng as subs of .\src
#     libpng and zlib can be downloaded from ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/png
#   Added pdf support with pdflib as a sub of .\src
#     pdflib can be downloaded from http://www.pdflib.com
#   Added MSC multi-thread support for compatibility with pdflib
# Bastian Maerkisch bmaerkisch@web.de:
#   Added support for binary version of the GD library (bgd.dll)
#     gdlib can be downloaded from http://www.libgd.org/
#     Development of libgd seems to have stalled:
#     Latest binary build can be found at http://www.libgd.org/releases/gd-latest-win32.zip
#     As of March 2011 this is version 2.0.34.
#   Removed zlib and libpng again as they're already included in bgd.dll
# Hans-Bernhard Broeker:
#   updated to current version of MSVC
#   undid silly name change for pgnuplot.exe, call console version gnuplot.exe instead
#   removed remainder of wgnuplot_pipes.exe support
#   isolated more configuration-dependent parts (gd, pdf, wx) to lines of their own,
#     so they can be turned on/off more easily.
# Bastian Maerkisch bmaerkisch@web.de:
#   Out of tree version. Moved to config\msvc
#   See ChangeLog for further changes.

#
# To compile with Visual C:
#	Optionally download gdlib to config\msvc\gdwin32
#	Optionally download pdflib to config\msvc\pdflib and compile it if you choose the source
#
#	Start the Microsoft Visual C++ command shell (e.g. via link installed setup)
#	change to the gnuplot\config\msvc directory
#   Edit the Makefile to match your setup. (If you don't have the optional libraries,
#   you will probably have to disable some parts.)
#	Now run:
#	  nmake

You would have to translate the make file to the corresponding VS project settings.

That are basically the compiler (CFLAGS) and linker (LDFLAGS) options, the include (/I) and library (/libpath) directories, and the library names. You can try to find the corresponding VS project settings or add them manually to the C/C++ resp. Linker Command Line options.

If you have a look at those you should recognise the /DHAVE_CONFIG_H option which is used by syscfg.h to include config.h. So you have to copy the file config/config.nt to config.h into the source directory as done too by the make file:

$(OBJS): config.h

config.h: $(TOP)\config\config.nt
	copy $(TOP)\config\config.nt config.h

That should avoid the errors about not finding the OS specific include files like strings.h.

Note also that the make file creates the file linkopt-c.msw which is then passed upon linking. So you have to create that file and add it to the VS link options or set all the files in the VS project link options.

Overall it is a lot of work with many possible errors.
