Re: LabView and Octave

[Paul Kienzle]

Some versions of Windows XP don't let you fork a new version of octave  
with each connection request.  As a work around I created a new version  
of listen which accepts the argument "nofork".  This is available in  
the cygwin build, or I can send you a version that works with the  
2.1.50a build.

The problem may be with the old version of cygwin I used for the  
2.1.50a build.  Could a few people with the cygwin package for octave  
2.1.71 try setting up an octave connection? The easiest way is to start  
octave and type listen(1515) then run tclsh with  
octave-forge/extra/soctcl/octsync.tcl, maybe first changing the line  
"bounce $fd 5" to "bounce $fd 35" so that you can have time to run two  
versions simultaneously.

Thanks in advance,

        - Paul
