Hello, I posted here a few months ago about trying to get inline octave to work. I received good inital feedback, but I am still stuck.
I know that i have inline installed as i can use inline c. I am using inline-octave-0.21 i am pretty sure i have inline octave installed. My initial error when running an inline octave perl script was: I currently only know about the following languages: C, Foo, c, foo etc. To fix this i put the Octave.pm file in a location where i think makes inline happy (ie. i don't see the above error message anymore). However when i run nmake test the first test hangs. I have put print STDERR everywhere in the Octave.pm file to see where my problem is. I have pinpointed the problem (problem might not be the best word) to be in sub interpret I think this routine is called from the sub load. sub interpret { ... ... my $input; my $marker_len= length( $marker )+1; print STDERR "select can_read is $select\n"; while ( 1 ) { #print STDERR "inside while loop\n"; for my $fh ( $select->can_read() ) { print STDERR "inside for loop\n"; if ($fh eq $Oerr) { process_errors(); } else { sysread $fh, (my $line), 16386; $input.= $line; # delay if we're reading nothing, not sure why select doesn't block select undef, undef, undef, 0.5 unless $line; } } last if substr( $input, -$marker_len, -1) eq $marker; } ... what seems to be happening is that i enter this while loop and it never leaves. Actually the print in the for loop never prints, so the $select->can_read() might not be returning anything Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, paul
