I checked in the following changeset.

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/cb4ac5e4d987

Does this change fix the problem for you?

jwe

Yes, that fix allows me to build Octave 3.3.90, but it doesn't fix the cs-list error, pasted below.

octave:1> plot(randn(10,1))
octave:2> print('-dpng','test.png')
warning: print.m: fig2dev binary is not available
error: invalid assignment to cs-list outside multiple assignment
error: matrix cannot be indexed with {
error: evaluating argument list element number 3

Make check also reports a cs-list error but does not crash like it does in 3.3.55.

Please also give us the details for the cs-list error which occurs when you run "make check".

Regarding the cs-list error you encounter when printing, I'd like to see the line where the error occurs. What does the following return.

system (sprintf ("grep -n \"^\" %s | head -n 415 | tail -n 50", which ("print")))

Ben


Making check in test
../run-octave --norc --silent --no-history ./fntests.m .

Integrated test scripts:

invalid assignment to cs-list outside multiple assignment

make -C doc ../INSTALL.OCTAVE
make -C interpreter ../../INSTALL.OCTAVE
make[4]: `../../INSTALL.OCTAVE' is up to date.
make -C doc ../BUGS
make -C interpreter ../../BUGS
make[4]: `../../BUGS' is up to date.

Octave successfully built.  Now choose from the following:

 ./run-octave    - to run in place to test before installing
 make check      - to run the tests
 make install    - to install (PREFIX=/usr/local)

Ok. It looks like the error is being caught in a try/catch or unwind_protect block. I haven't looked at this part of the code, but I'd start by trying to isolate where the problem is.

Please try

octave:1> cd test
octave:2> fntests

You'll likely get the same error. What happens for ...

octave:1> cd src/DLD-FUNCTIONS
octave:2> test besselj.cc

I see that the error occurs when you type ...

octave:2> print('-dpng','test.png')

When I type ...

octave:1> surf (peaks)
octave:2> print('-dpng','test.png')

I don't get the error. What command did you use to produce the plot?

Ben



It's just a line plot. I pasted it in an earlier message in this thread. I get the same error when trying to print if I had typed surf(peaks) as well. It plots fine on the screen, I just can't print it to a file.
