[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48326] test printd fails in Win-7

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #48326 (project octave):

Ok, can you try moving the fclose of the temporary file and printing the file
size after it's closed? Something like this change (with a pause inserted as
well):


diff --git a/scripts/plot/util/printd.m b/scripts/plot/util/printd.m

   delete (tempf);
   pr_out = sprintf ("%s file %s written\n", opt, filename);
 


We need to know if it's the writing of the file by Octave, or if it's the cp
command executed by the shell that converts the line endings. Or does moving
the fclose() up higher in the function and adding a pause() make the test
start passing?
