get(0,"CurrentFigure") always return [ ]

[Nobody/Anonymous]

Hello

I used the following code in octave:

plot([0:1:10],[0:1:10].^2);
b=get(0,"CurrentFigure");

Octave result:
b= [](0x1)

Why is that? This problem causes octave to open a new plot window everytime I call gcf().
   
I use octave version 2.1.73 and gnuplot 4.0 patchlevel 0

Thank you for your help!!!!!!!!!!!

1. what happnes if you try to use gcf()? -- if it works, have a look at gcf.m (type gcf.m)
2. If it still doesn't work, can you try to compile the current svn version?
