Yeah that's not good, sorry for that.

There has been a large code shuffle under the hood, so something creeped in
along the way. 
Calls to findstr() shoudn't have been there AFAICR I've dropped those calls
some time ago.

So please do the following to help me figure this out:

(1)
In your Octave installation, what is the output of 
__have-feature__ ("JAVA")
?

(2)
Doing this:

cd (strrep (which ("xlsread"), "xlsread.m", "private"))
addpath (pwd)
edit getinterfaces.m

and then, in L.56 (empty line) of getinterfaces.m, insert the statement:
  has_java = 0;

so that it looks like

:
  if (isempty (has_java))
    has_java = __have_feature__ ("JAVA");
  endif
  has-java = 0;
  if  (isempty (interfaces.COM) && isempty (interfaces.JXL) ...
:

save getinterfaces.m

go back to your working directory,

and try your code again, what do you get?

Philip
