URL: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55990> Summary: mex() function does not raise error when compilation fails Project: GNU Octave Submitted by: apjanke Submitted on: Sun 24 Mar 2019 06:59:43 PM UTC Category: Interpreter Severity: 3 - Normal Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: Incorrect Result Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Name: Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: dev Operating System: Any _______________________________________________________ Details: The mex function does not raise an error when compilation fails. This means it's hard for a calling script to detect when mex compilation happens. And for code that's expecting Matlab's mex() behavior of erroring on failure, it can mess up program logic; for example: https://github.com/fieldtrip/fieldtrip/issues/1027. I think the mex function should error() when compilation does not succeed. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55990> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
