In principle, all you have to do is edit PyQwt-5.0.1a/qwt-5.0/qwtconfig.pri: 1. comment out the line CONFIG += QwtDll (should produce a static lib) 2. uncomment the line #CONFIG += QwtSVGItem (so that Qwt can export its graphs to SVG) and run qmake, etc..

ReallySimpleDemo.py) you need to install numpy (PyQwt plots also data consisting of lists and tuples, but slower than numpy arrays). The --disable-numpy prevents that the PyQwt build finds numpy so that PyQwt does not try to import numpy. However, PyQwt can still copy data out of numpy arrays but is independent of a particular version of numpy (or recent versions of its predecessors -- Numeric and numarray -- if users can choose what they like). A numpy exe is at http://downloads.sourceforge.net/numpy/numpy-1.0.3.win32-py2.5.exe?modtime=1179938051&big_mirror=0 PyQwt install a module iqt which has become superfluous (PyOsInputHook) with PyQt4 and some other python modules which are probably not very useful on windows (qplt.py and grace.py). Gerard PS: PyQwt builds on 64 and 32bit Linux with your latest snapshots and on 32bit Windows with your latest GPL releases (did not test the snapshots) _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
