[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #45338] communications package fails to link with libhdf5 on Windows

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #45338 (project octave):

So the problematic line is the following, where Matthias sees:


checking for Octave HDF5 libraries...


and John sees (and I expect):


checking for Octave HDF5 libraries... -lhdf5


This string comes from the following command, should be runnable from a
Windows terminal, maybe needs backslashes instead of slashes:


C:/Octave/Octave-4.0.0/bin/octave-4.0.0.exe --norc --no-history --silent
--eval 'disp(octave_config_info.HDF5_LIBS)'


And then, this should also be runnable from within Octave via a bash shell, so
something like this should return the same string:


octave:1> system("C:/Octave/Octave-4.0.0/bin/octave-4.0.0.exe --norc
--no-history --silent --eval 'disp(octave_config_info.HDF5_LIBS)'");
