Re: Compilation Error

[Koby Zalmanson]

Hi Mike,

Which other tools do you suggest to use? It can be really better.

Thanks,

Koby

I don't think anyone uses MSVC with Octave recently, so you'll probably
be on your own. Most of the developers work with better tools.

There is an ancient version of Octave 3.6.4 built for MSVC in the Octave
Forge download area, see

  https://sourceforge.net/projects/octave/files/Octave%20Windows%20binaries/Octave%203.6.4%20for%20Windows%20Microsoft%20Visual%20Studio/

You may try looking through the archives for other people who have tried
to do this, maybe get together to work on it if it's important to you.
See for example
