CoolProp not working on latest Octave Version (Arch Linux)

[Jan Detke]

Hello,

I follow the instructions in the octave-wrapper documentation. First problem I ran into was, that the developer headers for octave are not packaged on Arch Linux. 

I continued with the installation and during the cmake I got an error message prompting that the octave class tree_evaluator has no no element called "tree.get_call_stack". I ran the test afterwards with the following result.

In octave I am unable to load the package CoolProp with pkg load CoolProp and to interact with CoolProp over propsSI in general.

Thanks for your help.

Octave Version: 8.1.0-4

Swig Version: 4.1.1-1

Well you definitely need the development headers,  so find a platform that has them.  

But also,  it has been quite some years since I fiddled with octave or swig,  so swig and octave might have gotten out of sync.
