[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #36211] bug: crashes and endless loops

[Philip Nienhuis]

Update of bug #36211 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
        Operating System:       Microsoft Windows => Any

Follow-up Comment #1:

Having no opinion yet about the statements you use (i.e., calculating with Inf
values), on my Mandriva Linux box, running Octave 3.6.1, I see:


octave-3.6.1:1> A=[inf,1234];b=[5];A\b
 ** On entry to DLASCL parameter number  4 had an illegal value
error: exception encountered in Fortran subroutine dgelsd_
octave-3.6.1:1> 


...so Octave catches some issues there. 
On Windows Octave's error catching may be set up incorrectly. What Windows
version do you use, MSVC or MinGW?

I can also confirm the endless loop.

Changed operating system to "any".
