[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53856] MEX file in a private directory of a class

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #15, bug #53856 (project octave):

OK, I think I see what is happening.  It's just luck that one type of file
(.m, .oct, or .mex) is preferred when more than one type exists in a private
directory because we weren't properly noting the multiple types.  Does the
following patch fix this part of the problem for you?

  http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/cc40e47d3a44

It still won't handle the case of a .mex or .oct file appearing after the .m
file has been used because the out_of_date_check code doesn't properly handle
that.  But it should at least make it so that the function we call doesn't
depend on the order of the list of files returned by the directory reading
function.
