matplotlib-users Mailing List for matplotlib

Hi, i'm a newcomer: greetings to all! I'm trying to compile matplotlib
on windows platform using mingw toolchains (I'm going to play a little
with the code). I think to have all dependencies, as specified in
setupext.py (downloaded the static header+libs package).
Unfortunately, linking is not working. I'm using latest stable version
of mingw, 5.1.3. Follows the output; I trimmed it a little, hopefully
only reduntant parts, but if you prefer here is the full output
(without automatic mail client line wraps...):

    http://bproofs.homeunix.org/build23.out

 If you need more information on my setup, please ask me.

Thanks for any help!

Francesco Pretto

Migrating to the new matplotlib codebase
========================================

Michael Droettboom has spent the last several months working on the
"transforms branch" of matplotlib, in which he rewrote from the ground
up the transformation infrastructure in matplotlib, which many found
unintuitive and hard to extend.  In addition to a cleaner code base,
the reorganization allows you to define your own transformations and
projections (e.g. map projections) within matplotlib.  He has merged his
work into the HEAD of the svn trunk, and this will be the basis for
future matplotlib releases.

If you are a svn user, we encourage you to continue using the trunk as
before, but with the understanding that you are now truly on the
bleeding edge.  Michael has made sure all the examples still pass with
the new code base, so for the vast majority of you, I expect to see
few problems.  But we need to get as many people as possible using the
new code base so we can find and fix the remaining problems.  We have
take the svn code used in the last stable release in the 0.91 series,
and made it a maintenance branch so we can still fix bugs and support
people who are not ready to migrate to the new transformation
infrastructure but nonetheless need access to svn bug fixes.

Using the new code
==================

To check out the trunk with the latest transforms changes:

    > svn co https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/matplotlib

If you already have a working copy of the trunk, your next "svn up" will
include the latest transforms changes.

Before installing, make sure you completely remove the old matplotlib
build and install directories, eg:

    > cd matplotlib
    > sudo rm -rf build
    > sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib
    > sudo python setup.py install

Using the old svn code
======================

To check out the maintenance branch, in order to commit bugfixes to 0.91.x:

    > svn co  https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/branches/v0_91_maint
 matplotlib_0_91_maint

Any applicable bugfixes on the 0.91.x maintenance branch should be
merged into the trunk so they are fixed there as well.  Svnmerge.py
makes this process rather straightforward, but you may also manually
merge if you prefer.

Merging bugfixes on the maint branch to the trunk using svnmerge.py
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Download svnmerge.py from here:

  http://www.orcaware.com/svn/wiki/Svnmerge.py

>From the working copy of the *trunk* (svnmerge.py always pulls *to*
the current working copy), so

   > svnmerge.py merge

to pull in changes from the maintenance branch.  Manually resolve any
conflicts, if necessary, test them, and then commit with

   > svn commit -F svnmerge-commit-message.txt

(Note the above will stop working when the maintenance branch is
abandoned.)

API CHANGES in the new transformation infrastructure
====================================================

While Michael worked hard to keep the API mostly unchanged while
performing what has been called "open heart surgery on matplotlib",
there have been some changes, as discussed below.

The primary goal of these changes was to make it easier to
extend matplotlib to support new kinds of projections.  This is
primarily an internal improvement, and the possible user-visible
changes it allows are yet to come.

These changes are detailed in the API_CHANGES document.

Thanks! Upgrading to 0.91.2 fixed the problem.

Hi all,

I am unable to use the TkAgg backend on opensuse linux 10.2 or 10.3? 
The standard examples

embedded_in_tk.py
embedded_in_tk2.py

end up with a segmentation fault. In debugger, the following message is 
reported

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread 0xb7caf6c0 (LWP 17262)]
PyAggImagePhoto (clientdata=0x0, interp=0x84dfcc0, argc=5, argv=0xbfdb09fc) at 
src/_transforms.h:362

Current language:  auto; currently c++

I've tried it first with the pre-built RPMs from the site

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/science/openSUSE_10.3/i586/python-matplotlib-tk-0.91.1-3.1.i586.rpm

Then, I deleted it and built matplotlib using current version
matplotlib-0.91.2.tar.gz

On ubuntu, the above listed examples are running.

Similar problem has been reported earlier.
http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-users%40lists.sourceforge.net/msg02822.html

It seems to be some tcl/tk installation problem. Does anyone have an idea how 
to fix it. Lot of thanks

John,

No, you have tripped over a bug that was fixed in the latest release, 
announced earlier this week.  The problem was that for a brief period, 
including the 0.91.1 release, mlab.py included some gtk gui code.  Now 
this has been moved out of the way to another module, so gtk won't be 
imported by accident.

If you can replace your mpl with 0.91.2, that will solve your problem.

Eric

I am trying to use matplotlib to generate some figures non-interactively
via cron, but I can not seem to get matplotlib.figure to import without
a gtk error, even when I specify to use an image backend. The problem
seems to be related to trying to import gtk when no X server is present.
The script runs fine when i am logged in locally, and when logged in
remotetely with X11 forwarding, but it fails when run through cron or
when logged in remotely with no X-server. It also does not help if I run
the script as: python script -dAgg

I am running matplotlib 0.91.1. Any hints on how to make this work? Am I
missing something here?

Thanks!

Here is an example (minimal) script that causes the error:

#start script
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('Agg')

import matplotlib.figure
#end script

Output=

I saw your message originally, but had neither immediate ideas nor time 
to look into it closely.  Sorry.

I think that lags in sourceforge mail archives are common.  Alternatives 
include gmane and nabble, e.g.,
