[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59952] [octave forge] (parallel) command line function call issues

[Tasos Papastylianou]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #59952 (project octave):

Hi Olaf, thanks for checking!

On my machine (linux mint 19.3 / ubuntu 18.04.1), v4.0.0 from octave forge
produces the array of -1s as stated earlier, and the development version
(tried just now) hangs indefinitely; pressing Ctrl-C dumps the following
message:


octave:4> vector_z = pararrayfun( nproc, @(x,y) mul(x,y), vector_x, vector_y)
^Ccould not load variable
could not load variable
error: __rfeval_slave__: could not read argument index
could not load variable
could not receive result
error: __parcellfun_get_next_result__: could not receive result
error: called from
    parcellfun at line 201 column 16
    pararrayfun at line 85 column 28
error: __rfeval_slave__: could not read argument index


So I do not get the same error / behaviour as you, but I do agree that the
behaviour on your end would close this particular bug report nicely (though
maybe with a slightly more informative error could be useful). Would you
prefer I open a [new] bug report for the 'hanging' behaviour?
