[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #43101] [MXE] Mingw Octave --enable64: HDF5 error mesages on startup

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #17, bug #43101 (project octave):

I gave it a try but ran into some problems.

- built hdf5 with --enable-debug=all
- rebuilt octave with --enable64 --enable-bounds-check
as extra configure flags;

- tried to run it in a mingw shell with gdb. But gdb tells me octave-cli.exe
is not a valid win32 executable. So I need 64-bit mingw and gdb. I suppose
that isn't too hard but it may be a while before I have time to dive in it
further.
I did find out that -after re-loading the written temp file in the first hdf5
test in sparse.cc- it is the call to sparse(af) that provokes the crash.

As Octave can be built w/o hdf5 support I think that is a way out for me for
the next weeks or so; I think (hope) I can assign more time/priority to this
issue later on.
