The Octave libraries were designed to implement the Octave
interperter.  Anything beyond that is a bonus, I guess.  If people
want better documentation for the internals, then I suggest that
someone write and contribute something.

That's it?  No main()?  No include statements?

Where?

The following works for me:

  $ cat foo.cc
  #include <octave/config.h>
  #include <octave/Matrix.h>

  int
  main (void)
  {
    Matrix m (10, 10);

    return 0;
  }

  $ mkoctfile --link-stand-alone foo.cc
  $ ./a.out
