I assume you are using Octave in Windows from Octave Forge installer.
To compile oct and mex files, you must install Microsoft Visual Studio
(there is free Expres edition you can download) - see README file in
C:\Program Files\Octave for details. Then, you must run Octave with
enviroment variables properly set up - easiest way to do this is to
run 'Visual Studio Command Prompt' from Start menu, cd to directory
with your source file and run octave there.
