[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41148] Parallel 2.1.0 fails to build in windows/mingw

[Olaf Till]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #41148 (project octave):

Carnë: The suggestion for disabling the rest of parallel was only meant as a
solution for windows for the case that getting the whole package to work there
isn't feasible. But according to Johns answer partial disabling will probably
no option.

John: poll is not used in parallel, select is used. Good news that it is
available. The issue with read/write I could probably work around where it is
used directly.

There remains one crucial issue. Can the file descriptor of a socket be
converted to a valid C stream with fdopen() (or something equivalent) on
Windows? 'parallel' does this to connect an Octave stream to the socket in
order to receive/send Octave variables using Octaves own coding.
