Re: io package doesnt load 4.00

[tmacchant]

If you have an 32bit version excel on your PC, you can use COM interface.
You should install the windows package (that exist on
C:\octave\Octave-4.0.0\src windows-1.2.1.tar.gz)

>> cd C:\octave\Octave-4.0.0\src
>> pkg install windows-1.2.1.tar.gz

>> pkg load windows
>> pkg load io

You can use xlsread for xls files.  For xlsx files, there is not required
java nor windows package nor excel. The xlsread should works for xlsx files
without any other dependencies.

Please do not forget to use
>> pkg load io
before using xlsread.

If you want io package autoloaded,

>> pkg rebuild -auto io

and exit octave and restart octave.
Try then
>> pkg list
