[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44862] Errors in script files don't generate tracebacks

[Rik]

Update of bug #44862 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              

    _______________________________________________________

Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed.  It's just a guess, but it looks like the internal variable that
controls whether a stack trace is printed has accidentally defaulted to
false.

Another way to see this regression is to have a single line script with the
code


error ("my error");


When the error to be printed does not end in a newline, then Octave should
print a stack trace.  This works in 3.8.2.  Adding a newline will suppress the
backtrace.


error ("my error\n");


This suppression works in 3.8.2, but suppression seems always to be on in
4.0.0.
