Hi Orion and RCY: @RCY: if you want to write further comments to this list discussion (which I presume will be on-going) you are required but also most welcome to subscribe to this list. However, I am sure everyone will be happy to CC you (like I have) if you decide not to subscribe and simply want to read the further discussion without writing comments of your own. @Orion: Thanks for that report for an octave 3.8.0 release candidate. I notice the final version of octave 3.8.0 was released just today. (see ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/octave). Once that version becomes available on Fedora could you confirm you are still seeing the same issue? I was intrigued by the >> #error "The file <octave/config.h> must be included before >> oct-refcount.h." message. From our swig-generated code, bindings/octave/plplot_octaveOCTAVE_wrap.cxx, this message is coming from #include <octave/oct.h> which is _the first_ octave-related include in that source code. So I don't think this error has anything to do with us unless there is a new Octave 3.8.0 requirement (which I think would be unlikely) to include a different octave header before octave/oct.h. For your further information, Andrew's and my extensive tests of our octave bindings and examples for PLplot-5.9.11 were fine. Andrew tested that PLplot release on both Debian unstable and Ubuntu Saucy (both of which have Octave-3.6.4) and I tested on Debian stable (Octave version 3.6.2). Thus, it appears to me that since the above first octave include worked fine for those versions of octave yet errors out for octave-3.8.0, that it is highly probable all the above messages are due to an internal error in octave-3.8.0 itself which might or might not be sorted out by 3.8.0 final. If it is not sorted out by 3.8.0 final, then you might want to try a simple test of compiling code consisting of the single #include statement above. Assuming that errors out the same way, then that simple test could be used as the core of a report to the Octave developers to see what they say about the issue.
