[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54622] test importdata fails in dev octave with windows

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #19, bug #54622 (project octave):

Just for grins, I changed to 'wt' on Linux and it works fine.

The same modification fails every time on Windows.

@John, can you try modifying line 159 of importdata to this


  [fid, msg] = fopen (fname, "rt");


The script uses a switch statement on the extension to determine which
internal subroutine to use to load the data.  If there is no extension, or an
unrecognized extension, it goes to importdata_ascii.  In this routine, I think
we should open the file using 'rt' so that we are sure we are getting text.
