Hello, As a new Octave user, I am trying to get our lab's Matlab graphics program (in the form of a bunch of.m files) to work in Octave. I loaded them up and try to run it, but it told me that there is no definition of the 'uicontrol' function.
After some searching, I realised that 'uicontrol' might not be implemented in Octave yet, but there exists the JHandles package that takes care of it. Unfortunately, I cannot find a place to download this package anywhere, including Octave Forge. Therefore: 1. Is there a place to download the latest JHandles package? Is there an alternative solution to getting my program to work?
Thank you very much. I am running Octave under Mac OS X 10.6. Help-octave mailing list. Hello Current situation of Jhandle has been written by Michael as a reply to the ML topic. Trouble with jhandles-installation issue?
Thread Point to Michal's reply AS sentence in the above post. So the bottom line is: current jhandles implementation is not suited for current octave code. Perhaps this is the reason why the jhandle package is disappeared from the current octave-forge site.

You can give jhandles 0.3.5 a try if you are working with octave 3.2.4 and the java-1.2.7 package I compiled it on my linux machine for 3.2.4 and with that version this jhandles version works (I have also the development version and 3.3.52 on my machine but never tried to make it run with the newer versions and I guess it will not work without changes to the source code). Since it works on my linux machine but has problems with the same octave version on windows machines there is no guarantee that it will work on mac.

This message (which I do not have) comes from some problem with the graphics card driver and/or that some native library is not found which is needed by the opengl bindings. So you seem to have a problem which is on a lower level than the octave and the jhandles installation. Which type of virtual machine are you using (they differ in the simulated graphics cards)? Also you should check if glxinfo tells you something strange (I know this is a bit vague but I also do not know what to look at there are too many possibilities, just check the version strings for opengl the vendor and the renderer, maybe it gives you a hint). Does glxgears work?
Did you install jogl from the repository with apt-get/synaptic or did you download it somewhere (in the second case it can be that the native libs are not found without some additional settings - namely the option java.library.path for the jvm)? - mh Help-octave mailing list.
