Re: [Fink-users] GUI - start?
Per Michael Grant's comments in the octave bug report, this is a non-compliant (illegal) C11++ construct in octave code (but happens to work in gcc and MSVC). We can not ask Apple to fix it. Octave community needs fix the illegal construct.

Do the offending modules have to do with OpenGL? No. The problem is with clang syntax. It is possible to overcome by patching Octave (beyond my skill set) or by fixing the clang compiler bug(s) on Apple’s end. OpenGL is the basis for Octave’s native graphics. My understanding is that both Metal and OpenGL support will coexist. So Metal shouldn’t be a problem for Octave.

So, there is little motive for Octave’s developers to fix the problem. I am not proficient in clang/c++ but am willing to contribute to fixing Octave’s source code. I have no problem arranging for testing of patches and converting patches to the necessary mercurial changesets and ultimately pushing the changes. I may also be able to assist in fixing the syntax issues, but will need clear instructions with some illustrative examples. If anyone is interested in fixing the incompatibilities between Octave and Apple’s clang let me know. I can provide instructions on how to set up your own personal archive and instructions on how to build Octave 3.8.2. That should be sufficient to allow individuals to attempt to compile Octave 4.0 and start fixing the clang non-compliant code.
