37.3.5.3 Compile and install the package in Octave

If you have for example saved the package archive on your z: drive the command would be:

     Octave> pkg install -verbose z:/java-1.2.8.tar.gz

or if you have Linux and the package file is stored in your home directory:

     octave> pkg install -verbose ~/java-1.2.8.tar.gz

The option -verbose will produce some lengthy output, which should not show any errors (maybe a few warnings at best).

You can then produce a list of all installed packages:

     octave> pkg list

This list of packages should now include the package java:

     octave> pkg list
     Package Name  | Version | Installation directory
     --------------+---------+-----------------------
             java *|   1.2.8 | /home/octavio/octave/java-1.2.8
     octave>
