From help-request at octave dot org Sun Oct 10 16:24:51 2004 Subject: Re: octave-2.1.59 and Cygwin From: "Yadin Goldschmidt" To: help at octave dot org Date: Sun, 10 Oct 2004 17:19:14 -0400 The site http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII3.0/cygwin.htm has a package called cygwinDevel.exe (34.6 Mb) which has among others gcc 3.2 and also the mingw32 branch. I used this gcc to compile octave 2.1.60 and it compiled out of the box and does not suffer from the slowness problem. Maybe you can put a copy of this package or part of it on the octave-forge site. I only used the gcc3.2 part which I installed with the most current cygwin after uninstalling the current gcc. I used the current setup to do the uninstallation and installation and not the setup provided with the cygwinDevel.exe on the Berkeley site. Yadin.

A number of us have copies. We could put it beside the other tools needed to build the cygwin distribution on the octave-forge download site. - Paul ------------------------------------------------------------- Octave is freely available under the terms of the GNU GPL.
