RE: 3.3.9/gnuplot 4.0 / bad X

[Atwood, Robert C]

Additional info: I compiled DDD_3_3_9 on another machine and it works.
It looks like the main thing is the Gnuplot 4.0 , since that is the same
as Joby Joseph's version (and very little else is the same)

This machine has Red Hat enterprise WS-3 

gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-34)

 gnuplot

Dear folks:
I have recently changed the libpng, libgd, gnuplot version and ddd
version (whew!). Now the ddd hangs when trying to plot an array; if
"cancel" is pressed the message below appears on the terminal window.

Any advice on this? 

Thanks 

Robert

First, some version info:
Originally Red-hat 7.2 distribution, but many packages individually
upgraded.



Gnuplot 4.0 built from source

rpm -qf /usr/lib/libgd.so.1.8.4
gd-1.8.4-4

rpm -qf /usr/lib/libpng.so
libpng-devel-1.0.12-2

Note, gcc-3 is installed alongside the default gcc-296 (has been for
some time, no problem before) Built from source.


 gccv333 --version
gccv333 (GCC) 3.3.3

 g++v333 --version
g++v333 (GCC) 3.3.3

I used cvs upd -r DDD_3_3_9  to get the 3.3.9 release into my working
copy. Then

export CC=gccv333
export CXX=g++v333

CVSMake, configure, install, (using encap for versioning installed
packages)

Here is the message.

address@hidden testarray]$ gccv333 -g -o testarray testarray.c

address@hidden testarray]$


Attatched is the log and part of the history file referring to these
attempts.

Also a test program that reproduces the behaviour, just display address@hidden
then highlight it and press plot. I get a dialog button 'Opening Gnuplot
[cancel]' but waiting several minutes, no gnuplot appears. Pressing
[cancel] causes the message and program exit.
