DDE Support?

[Rainey, David]

Has anyone done any work on getting Octave to support the Matlab DDE
commands (ddeinit, ddereq, ddepoke, ddeterm, etc.)?  I wrote some
scripts that use a command line utility to duplicate the Matlab
functionality, but they are very slow and cause the application focus to
jump back and forth between the Octave console and the DDE serving app.
This is not urgently needed since I've found a way around the code, but
I am interested if there's any partially completed code around.

 

Thanks,

Dave Rainey

To my knowledge, nobody is working on this. If you're willing to do it,
I'd be glad to integrate it into the octave-forge Windows package along
with the existing COM support.
