[Gtk-sharp-list] NPlot + Gtk# + Windows

[Gennadiy Donchyts]

Hi,

(1)When I try to add NPlot.Gtk.PlotSurface2D into Gtk.Widget (such as
> HBox), I got this compile error:
> error CS1502: The best overloaded method match for
> `Gtk.Container.Add(Gtk.Widget)' has some invalid arguments
> error CS1503: Argument 1: Cannot convert from
> `NPlot.Gtk.PlotSurface2D' to `Gtk.Widget'


strange, in my case it is Widget-convertable without any problems since it
is DrawingArea.


(2)Do we need gtk-dotnet.dll in order to use NPlot? If yes, where can I get
> it?


no

yes and no, you can delete sysdraw.cs and use gtk-dotnet.dll or you can
simply replace it
with http://svn.myrealbox.com/source/trunk/gtk-sharp/gtkdotnet/Graphics.cs.
Also it is necessary
to correct namespace name there in both cases.

(4)I saw there are many version NPlot on internet (such as
> http://primates.ximian.com/~miguel/tmp/NPlot-Gtk-0.9.8.5.tar.gz and
> http://gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=639). Which one is suitable for
> GTK# on Windows platform?


You can use 9.8.5 (afaik it is the last port) or in order to have the last
version it is better to grab the last from
NPlot sourceforge page and try to extend it with Miguel's files
Gtk.PlotSurface2D.cs and Graphics.cs
from gtk-dotnet. Should work fine.
