[Rik]

Update of bug #49642 (project octave):

                  Status:               Confirmed => In Progress

Follow-up Comment #9:

I tested the quick patch on stable and it seems to work.  One thing I did
notice is that when the error is rethrown the printed stack depth is only one
deep.  In the original error, it includes the functions validsetargs and
union.  In the subsequent rethrow, it only includes validsetargs.  Is that
correct? 


>> union ({'a'}, 1)
error: union: cell array of strings cannot be combined with a nonstring value
error: called from
    validsetargs at line 39 column 9
    union at line 51 column 8
>> lasterror ().stack.file
ans =
/home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-stable/scripts/set/private/validsetargs.m
ans = /home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-stable/scripts/set/union.m
>> rethrow (lasterror ())
union: cell array of strings cannot be combined with a nonstring value
error: called from 'validsetargs' in file
/home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-stable/scripts/set/private/validsetargs.m
near line 39, column 9
>> lasterror ().stack.file
ans =
/home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-stable/scripts/set/private/validsetargs.m
ans = /home/rik/wip/Projects_Mine/octave-stable/scripts/set/union.m
