Follow-up Comment #1:

According to https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/which.html, only
methods that are in classes that are "loaded" are returned.

This also implies the following syntax that Matlab supports, but Octave does
not:


x = javaObject ("java.lang.String");
toString (x)


where the method is called as a function with the object as argument. I'm not
saying this can't be done without that support, but that's what "which" seems
to be paired with, the list of functions that you can call as a bare function.
