[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #64251] Unable to install Parallel Package on Octave for Windows

[INVALID.NOREPLY]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #64251 (project octave):

Thanks for your swift answer.

I changed the file __makeinfo__.m in
C:\GNUOctave\Octave-8.2.0\mingw64\share\octave\8.2.0\m\help to:


unwind_protect_cleanup
    if (exist (name, "file"))
##     delete (name);
        name
    endif
  end_unwind_protect


but it seems to have no effect.


`getenv('TEMP')` returned that the data goes to
C:\Users\masum\AppData\Local\Temp
I can see that there are constantly files appearing and disappearing during
the installation, and also there are no names returned to the prompt. Did I
modify the wrong file?

[comment #6 comment #6:]
> You should be able to find that file in the TEMP folder. That is the folder
that is returned when you execute `getenv('TEMP')` at the Octave prompt.
> 
> The file in question should have a name following the patter
"octave-help-XXXXXX" (where the Xs are replaced by "random" characters). 
> If you'd like to see the exact name, you could add a line that only contains
"name" at the position where you commented out the other line. That should
display the name of the temporary file whenever it would have been deleted.
