[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47910] problem when running MXE Octave in command line

[Mike Miller]

Update of bug #47910 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Invalid                
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:

That's not the right way to run a function file.

If you want to run a script,


octave-cli foo.m


If you want to call a function,


octave-cli --eval foo


Your example is the same as running


>> foo.m


in Octave, which is evaluating a symbol "foo", which happens to be a function
in this case, and then trying to index the result with a field name of "m".

If your function "foo" returned a struct that had a member named "m", then it
would work.
