[Mike Miller]

Update of bug #48749 (project octave):

                Category:                    None => Octave Function        
                Severity:              3 - Normal => 1 - Wish               
                Priority:              5 - Normal => 3 - Low                
              Item Group:                    None => Matlab Compatibility   
                  Status:                    None => Need Info              
                 Summary:    size of java arrays  => size and dimensionality
of java arrays

Follow-up Comment #1:

That looks right according to my reading also.

The current Octave behavior is nice, but not fully Matlab compatible. The
higher dimensions in the returned size are just the lengths of the first
nested arrays.

To be compatible, the size of a Java array should always be Nx1 reflecting the
length of the outermost array. The number of dimensions (ndims) should always
be 2. It would be nice to confirm whether numel agrees with size for 2 or
higher-dimensional Java arrays.
