[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47614] pipe() does not work on Windows

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #47614 (project octave):

I have yet built development branch of octave with mxe-octave.
(I am now building.)

Seeing log file of stable-octave,  


octave-4.0.1/libgnu/unistd.in.h | 
          sed -e 's|@''HAVE_CHOWN''@|1|g' 
  <snip>
              -e 's|@''HAVE_PIPE''@|1|g' 
              -e 's|@''HAVE_PIPE2''@|1|g' 
  <snip>


Octave uses the gnulib pipe.
The gnulib pipe does nothing on the posix system and replace pipe by 
_pipe on Windows.

> Another option is to keep things the way they are now. The pipe function
currently throws an error: 

At the moment, I also think that it is better to do so.
