[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #32497] Matlab differences when using abbreviated PROPERTY names

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #32497 (project octave):

Maybe a reasonable solution for this bug would be to not allow the abbrev
matching to search also for hidden properties names. A user can't know that a
given pattern is ambiguous as long as the following test returns true:


pattern = "horiz";
fields = fieldnames (get (text ())); 
tst = @cellfun (@(s) strncmp (pattern, s, length (pattern)), fields);
sum (tst) == 1
