And, you should also know that you don't even need to run make to run a test for a file. You just need to run test foo or test foo.m at the Octave prompt to run the tests for a function defined in foo.m, or test foo.cc to run the tests for the file foo.cc. The file must be in your Octave load path for the test function to find it. jwe ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Octave-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/octave-dev
