troubles with mkoctfiles

[Istvan Albert]

Hello,

I have recently started using Octave 2.1.33 (RedHat linux) it works great 
but I am having troubles with the mkoctfile script.

This is the result of compiling hello.cc

mkoctfile -v hello.cc
c++ -c -fPIC -I/usr/include/octave-2.1.33 -I/usr/include/octave-2.1.33/octave 
-I/usr/include -mieee-fp -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -fno-implicit-templates -O2 
-march=i386 -mcpu=i686 hello.cc -o hello.o
hello.cc: In function `octave_value_list Fhello (const 
octave_value_list &, int)':
hello.cc:94: no matching function for call to `octave_value::print ()'
/usr/include/octave-2.1.33/octave/ov.h:479: candidates are: void 
octave_value::print (ostream &, bool = false) const

now if I comment out the tmp.print line in hello.cc the script compiles and runs
fine in Octave (doesn't output the arguments anymore of course). What could be 
the 
problem here? ( Although I have programmed in C I'm not used to C++ syntax so 
it 
is difficult for me to guess why this methods is not seen)

When I try to compile the other script (oregonator.cc), I get 

oregonator.cc: In function `octave_value_list Foregonator (const 
octave_value_list &, int)':
oregonator.cc:15: conversion from `Array<double>' to non-scalar type 
`ColumnVector' requested

clearly something is wrong with my setup. Any thoughts of what it might be?
BTW, is there an "optimal" linux distribution that is guaranteed to run and 
compiles Octave out of the box. Mine surely doesn't. 

Any input appreciated.

thanks,

Istvan.
