Hello

I installed octave-2.9.12-3-setup.exe and
can confirm that the adding the octave\lib directory to LIB is still
needed. In order to successfully compile & use hello.cc, I used:
---
REM needed to find cl & link
call "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\vcvarsall.bat"

REM needed to find ws2_32.lib, kernel32.lib, ...
call "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for
Windows Server 2003 R2\SetEnv.Cmd"

REM needed to find lapack.lib, ...
call set LIB=C:\Octave\lib;%LIB%

call "C:\Octave\bin\oct
---
and then "mkoctfile hello.cc" .

Similarly, I tried with a mex file, which compiles & links as well
(mex mexfile.c), but can not be run. Indeed, the mexfile.mex file
does not contain the string "mexFunction" at all - thats what octave
is looking for, right?
