[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41720] very first compilation of a c-file with mex - successfull, after using the build function the c-file cannot be recompile

[Michael Goffioul]

Update of bug #41720 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Wont Fix               
             Open/Closed:                    Open => Closed

Follow-up Comment #1:

This is a particularity of the Windows file system. When a DLL (a MEX or OCT
file is actually a Win32 DLL) is opened by a process, it is locked and cannot
be deleted.

By executing the MEX file, it has been loaded by octave and cannot be deleted
or overwritten. If you "clear hello" before recompiling, it should work.

Closing the bug, as I don't think we want to do anything about it at
octave-level.
