From help-octave-request at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Mon Feb 2 12:27:43 2004 Subject: 64-bit ints for array indexing From: Luke Sjulson To: help-octave at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2004 13:23:36 -0500 hello, I'm running octave 2.1.52 in 64-bit mode on an opteron running linux, and I ran into the limitation of not being able to work with arrays containing more than 2^31 elements, which is apparently because octave uses 32 bit ints for array indexing. There was a simple workaround, but I was wondering: has anyone compiled a version of octave that uses long ints for array indexing? Which files would I have to be modified? Are there any plans to incorporate this into future releases of octave? thanks a lot, Luke -- Lucas L.
