[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #45951] Add "xmlread" to core Octave or replace the one in io package

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #45951 (project octave):

That looks good to me. Maybe just add a try-catch for the
ClassNotFoundException with a better error message for the user: "xmlread:
unable to load Xerces XML parser" or something like that and call it done.

To what extent do you think Octave should be able to
provide/detect/find/install the Xerces library? At the bare minimum we just
provide this function and it's on the user to set up the Java runtime path to
make sure the library can be found, right?
