Re: using mkoctfile

[Paul Thomas]

Neil,

mkoctfile is not an octave function - it is a operating system shell 
script and, yes, you need the C++ compiler and the include files to 
build your own functions.

Please take a look at the draft of a dynamically linked function 
cookbook that I have written

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/prthomas/

It is still evolving and is missing some paragraphs on exceptions and 
error handling.  However, it will serve to get you started.
