[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #50671] Object arrays don't work correctly with linear indexing

[Rik]

Update of bug #50671 (project octave):

                Category:         Octave Function => Interpreter            
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Summary: Writing of property values in object arrays delets
all other property values => Object arrays don't work correctly with linear
indexing

Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed, although the actual problem is a bit different.  The problem seems
to be that the interpreter isn't handling linear indexing correctly.  See the
diary from the session below and note that linear indexing is changing the
size of the array.


octave:40> clear all
octave:41> d(1) = dummy
d =

<object array dummy>

octave:42> size (d)
ans =

   1   1

octave:43> d(1).name = "TEST"
d =

<object array dummy>

octave:44> size (d)
ans =

   1   2

octave:45> d(1).name
ans = bla
octave:46> d(2).name
ans = TEST


Note that if you use explicit ROW,COLUMN indexing then assignment works
correctly.


octave:1> clear all
octave:2> d(1,1) = dummy
d =

<object array dummy>

octave:3> size (d)
ans =

   1   1

octave:4> d(1,1).name = "TEST"
d =

<object array dummy>

octave:5> size (d)
ans =

   1   1

octave:6> d(1,1).value = pi
d =

<object array dummy>

octave:7> size (d)
ans =

   1   1

octave:8> d(1,1).name
ans = TEST
octave:9> d(1,1).value
ans =  3.1416
