[OctDev] Re: matcompat for PC?

[Paul K. <pki...@us...>]

Henrik,

I have never tried, but there are some people who have.  The .oct functions
won't
work because the people who build the PC version haven't figured out to make
oct files work on the PC, but the rest of the code should work fine.  If you
must have
the functions in the oct file, then you will need to recompile octave with the
source
in the the src/DLD-FUNCTIONS subdirectory and listed on the DLD_XSRC line
in src/Makefile.  I don't know what flags are used to build on the PC.  It may
be
that "./configure ; make " is all you need to do and it will figure out that it
is a PC
and that it should compile a static version of Octave, or it may be that you
have
to explicitly force it to be static.  Whatever the case, write it up on
INSTALL.win
so we can include it on the octave-forge site.  Thanks,

Paul Kienzle
