Hi,

Recently I got octave - 2.1.73 installed on my Solaris 10 system ,
compiled with a combination of Studio-11.0 Fortran compiler and GNU C++
compiler v3.4.3.

address@hidden:/u/mulleyn>/usr/local/octave-2.1.73/bin/octave

I have a problem getting the octave-forge installed along with. 
I put the following in my ~/.octaverc file

address@hidden:/u/mulleyn>cat .octaverc
LOADPATH = [
'/usr/local/octave-2.1.73//oct:/usr/local/octave-2.1.73///:', LOADPATH
];
EXEC_PATH = [ '/usr/local/octave-2.1.73//bin:', EXEC_PATH ];
address@hidden:/u/mulleyn>


And I get the following ...

address@hidden:/u/mulleyn>/usr/local/octave-2.1.73/bin/octave

I assumed that this could be due to the lack of the dispatch
function/module in the octave installation and grabbed dispatch.cc from
the http://octave.sourceforge.net/index/index.html
When I tried to compile in the dispatch.cc with the mkoctfile, I get the
following..

address@hidden:/u/mulleyn>mkoctfile dispatch.cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H
dispatch.cc: In function `octave_value_list Fbuiltin(const
octave_value_list&, int)':
/usr/local/octave-2.1.73/include/octave-2.1.73/octave/defun-int.h:37:
error: too few arguments to function `void print_usage(const
std::string&, bool)'
dispatch.cc:328: error: at this point in file
dispatch.cc: In function `octave_value_list Fdispatch(const
octave_value_list&, int)':
/usr/local/octave-2.1.73/include/octave-2.1.73/octave/defun-int.h:37:
error: too few arguments to function `void print_usage(const
std::string&, bool)'
dispatch.cc:450: error: at this point in file
address@hidden:/u/mulleyn>


I tried hard in understanding what this could mean. It would be of real
great help if you could please let me know the fixes.

Thanks in advance,
Nikhil
