3Configure plotter for plottools.
4
5This must be imported first in __init__.py for plottools.
6
7If your application uses matplotlib outside plottools, then
8please do the following at the start of your application:
9
10    # Select matplotlib version and backend
11    import sas.plottools.config
12
13Note that plottools requires particular versions of matplotlib
14and a particular backend.  As of this writing it is the WXAgg
15backend for matplotlib>=0.98.
16
17The plottools package uses pkg_resources if available to select
18the correct version of matplotlib.  If you need multiple matplotlib
19versions in your path, be sure to use "easy_install -m" for all
20of them.  If a version is installed without "-m" that does not
21meet the requirements, then pkg_resources.require() will fail,
22even if you have installed a suitable version with "-m".  In this
23case you will need to fix up your site-packages directory,
24probably by removing site-packages/matplotlib and the associated
25egg file for that version, and reinstalling with "-m".  You may
26also need to edit site-packages/easy-install.pth.
