[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47480] [octave forge] (io) relies on deprecated octave_config_info

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #47480 (project octave):

Philip - it would be helpful if you could explain the logic that you need in
the io package and what Octave could provide.

I don't really understand the differences with all of the possibilities of
Java and LibreOffice 32/64 bit support on Windows that you are selecting. Can
you explain why the value of computer("arch") or uname().machine is not
sufficient? That should help eliminate the need for "ENABLE_64".

You should be able to eliminate all uses of
octave_config_info("build_features").JAVA and have_feature("JAVA")
immediately, I can provide a patch if you want.

I guess you expect that jar files will be dropped into the Octave library
directory on Windows? Or is that an old assumption that can be dropped?
