[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #32158] Error of deleting a file file path which begins with '\' on MinGW

[Benjamin Lindner]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #32158 (project octave):

P_tmpdir returns an empty string, and I have both TEMP and TMP set in the
environment (i.e. getenv("TEMP") and getenv("TMP") both return non-empty
strings.
Which I don't quite understand looking at your patch...

Ah, I see the flaw in the patch:
the return value in get_P_tmpdir "retval" is not properly assigned. It's
assigned in the else clause whereby if the else clause is not executed (which
it isn't, as P_tmpdir is "\", so the code which checks for TEMP and TMP is
executed) the still empty retval is returned.
