Hi,

since I got used to the C++ API during the course of writing my own oct 
functions,
I've started to make use of the Octave stuff, basically the math classes, for 
tiny helper
programs running standalone. (Generated via mkoctfile --standalone)

There's no issue with the programming, but with the long list of DLL 
dependencies of these executables.
A lot of collegues, who do not use Octave or have it installed on their 
machines, are asking for my tools and I've
started to bundle everything required. Now, the list of DLLs (number, total 
size,...) is enormous.
Therefore, I'm looking for a way to get dependencies reduced.

Is there a "fully static" Octave for Windows, which allows to link everything 
statically ?
Did anyone succeed in comiling such a version based on MinGW  ?

As a first step I'm planning to set up a dedicated Octave version, which is 
used exclusively to compile 
standalone tools based on mkoctfile. My strategie is to strip off unneeded 
features at configure as much as possible.
Maybe I can go with static versions of  some of the support libs, too.

Is there an easy way to get rid of the interpreter related stuff (causing a 
bunch of unused dependencies like readline,ncurses, ...).

Any sugestions ?

Toby
