[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #62308] use of octave::feval causes error: function '...' not found

[Markus Mützel]

Update of bug #62308 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
        Operating System:       Microsoft Windows => Any

Follow-up Comment #1:

I can confirm on Windows 11 and Ubuntu 21.10 with Octave 7.1.0 or the current
stable branch (hg id f67d2ce5d6d4), respectively.

I'm attaching an example that reproduces this for me. Any (built-in?) function
seems to cause the same error.

To reproduce build the attached file with:

mkoctfile --link-stand-alone bug62308.cc -o bug62308


Output:

$ ./bug62308
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'octave::execution_exception'
  what():  feval: function 'path' not found


Unfortunately, this snuck it's way into the release. It would be nice if we
had some BISTs for this use-case.
