Re: How to make Octave build and run natively on Windows?

[David Bateman]

Ole,

You should look at the mail from my colleague Laurent Mazet on the 26th
of October about a build under MingW

http://www.octave.org/mailing-lists/octave-maintainers/2004/783

He successfully built octave under MingW, though he didn't inlcude
readline more throuh accident than anything else, and there was a
namespace clash with the Array in one of the MingW files. There is
also some doubt whether the dynamically linked oct-files are usuable,
since he forced them to be in liboctinterp by hand...

I'd be intrested to hear you results, since we are really missing a
Windows release now that 2.1.63 has been declared as testing...

Regards
David
