If I had to guess, the problem on Windows is that the calling
environment doesn't set the OCTAVE_HOME environment variable. Note that
that variable is required on Windows for Octave to run correctly.

Hello Kai and Mike,
Thank you for your emails.
Mike's solution worked. I had to
1. export the OCTAVE_HOME=C:\Octave\Octave-5.1.0.0\mingw64 in the system environment variables for my user name. On Windows 10 System properties -> Environment variables -> User variables for xxx user -> New -> variable name as OCTAVE_HOME and value as C:\Octave\Octave-5.1.0.0\mingw64.
2. compile the case again with mkoctfile --link-stand-alone embedded.cc -o embedded.exe
3. embedded.exe on command prompt in the working directory. I could execute this time without any errors. And, I checked that it loaded the package and executed the instructions too.
Thank you for your help Mike.
Thank you for your help.
