[Rik]

Update of bug #45264 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #6:

I have replicated the results in comment #5 on 64-bit Ubuntu (12.04 LTS) with
both Octave 3.8.2 (works) and Octave 4.0.0 (fails).  Maybe it was obvious, but
after creating the Myclass.java file I also needed to run 'javac Myclass.java'
to create a .class file.

Just quickly glancing through the Mercurial logs, this changeset looks
suspicious.
