[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48925] problem with m-files in private directory

[Avinoam Kalma]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #48925 (project octave):

Sorry for the noise: a full corrected report:

For example: Octave starts in directory
D:\Octave\Octave-4.1.0+\share\octave\4.1.0+\m\testfun. If I use "cd private"
Octave does not recognize the m-files in the private directory:

In 4.0.3:


>> cd private
>> compare_plot_demos
error: no such file,
'D:\Octave\Octave-4.1.0+\share\octave\4.1.0+\m\testfun\private\private\dump_demos.m'
error: called from compare_plot_demos at line 80 column 3



in 4.0.1+ (cs 52c205a0ad88
52c205a0ad88 <http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/52c205a0ad88>):


>> cd private
>> compare_plot_demos
error: 'compare_plot_demos' undefined near line 1 column 1


It looks like octave is searching in for the files in the folder
private\private. Note that the error in 4.0.1 is much less informative.

If Octave starts in the private directory, everything is OK.

Tested with MXE-Octave on Win-10 machine.
