This test was disabled with 0a0743f25c since
it fails with octave 7.2.0
The test function horzcat now uses a variable length argument list to fix this.
Before octave 7 it seems to be possible to call a N-argument octave function
with > N arguments without any error. With octave 7 this seems no longer to be
possible which caused the test failure.
Swig types can be used by the operators [a,b] or [a;b] if an octave
overload functions horzcat.m or vertcat.m are added in a @swig_ref
subdirectory.
This requires that is_object() (isobject() for octave >= 4.4) returns
true for swig types which is ensured by the swig octave runtime.
- Examples/Makefile.in rules use SRCDIR as the relative source directory
- ./config.status replicates Examples/ source directory tree in build
directory, and copies each Makefile to build directory, prefixed with
a header which sets SRCDIR to source directory
- Examples/test-suite/.../Makefile.in set SRCDIR from Autoconf-set srcdir
- Examples/test-suite/errors/Makefile.in needs to filter out source
directory from SWIG error messages
- Lua: embedded interpreters are passed location of run-time test
- Python: copy run-time scripts to build directory because of 2to3
conversion; import_packages example copies __init__.py from source
directory; test-suite sets SCRIPTDIR to location of run-time tests
- Javascript: binding.gyp renamed to binding.gyp.in so that $srcdir
can be substituted with SRCDIR; removed './' from require() statements
so that NODE_PATH can be used to point Node.js to build directory
- rename example modules from "example" to "swigexample", to avoid a
warning from shadowing the Octave built-in function "example"
- remove deprecated "static" Makefile targets: there is no longer
an option to build static Octave modules in the Examples Makefile
- emacs whitespace cleanup run on all files
