[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #50756] display of objects in cell array is suppressed

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #50756 (project octave):

I changed the polynomial code to overload the disp function rather than the
display function.  This is how things should be done.  See cset
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/a5280a05b188.

However, that is only a prelude.  You are correct that the issue is that the
print routine for cells in ov-cell.cc is calling print directly on an
octave_value object which does not seem to invoke overloaded version of either
display or disp.

I made a quick hack using feval which calls disp() on the octave_value object.
 This works, but probably only jwe will know if this is the correct approach. 
See the attached hack.
