    _______________________________________________________

Details:

When invoking parent class constructor in child constructor the parent
constructor is not properly called.

For Parent Class:

classdef Parent_Class
  methods
    function self = Parent_Class(val)
      val;
    end
  end
end


And Child Class:

classdef Child_Class < Parent_Class
  methods
    function self = Child_Class(val)
      self = address@hidden(val);
    end
  end
end


When calling:

Child_Class('asd')


You get:

error: value on right hand side of assignment is undefined
error: called from
    Child_Class at line 4 column 12


Am attaching the test for this problem.
