[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #51203] xlswrite(...'com') output results in a corrupted .xlsx / unicode issues

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #65, bug #51203 (project octave):

Attached is a changed patch that doesn't use the loop around "cd".
Andrey used the following script to trigger the bug:

more off
cell1={'One, two, three, 4'};

filename = [mfilename('fullpath'), '.xlsx'];
for i= 1:300
  fprintf ("-------------- iteration %d ---------------\n", i);
  if exist(filename, "file")==2
    disp("deleting file")
    delete(filename);
  end
  if exist(filename, "file")==2
    warning ("File NOT deleted!");
  end
  t_xlsx = tic;
  xlswrite (filename, cell1, [], [], 'oct');
  toc (t_xlsx)
  if !exist (filename)
    warning ("xlsx file NOT created!");
  endif
endfor


Could you please first try with the original files in io 2.4.7 whether the
script triggers the bug for you? Does the attached patch still fix the issue?
