This folder contains contributions that may be useful to users of this library, but have a too specialized audience to become part of the main tree.

In particular, things in here will have a higher rate of bit-rot, since contributors are not required to and may be unable to check whether their changes break any of them.

Tested on the following environment

• Windows 10 - 64bit
• Anaconda 4.3 (64 bit)
• Python 3.6.0
• CMake 3.9.4
• Visual Studio 2017, 2015, 2013

1. Edit WinBuild.cmd for your environment(Line:5-7) if NOT DEFINED MSVC_VERSION set MSVC_VERSION=[Your Visual Studio Version(12, 14, 15)] if NOT DEFINED CMAKE_CONFIG set CMAKE_CONFIG=Release if NOT DEFINED PYTHONHOME set PYTHONHOME=[Your Python Path]

2. Run WinBuild.cmd to build

> cd contrib
> WinBuild.cmd

The WinBuild.cmd will set up temporal ENV variables and build binaries in (matplotlib root)/examples with the Release configuration.

3. Find exe files in examples/build/Release Note: platforms folder is necessary to make qt works.
