Details:

Steps to Reproduce:


x = true;
openvar x
class (x)
ans = logical
# Note: class of object displayed is 1x1 logical
# Edit x and change the value to 0
class (x)
ans = double


Note that this doesn't happen for other class types such as single, uint8,
etc.  Presumably, there is somewhere in the code that the input "val" is
evaluated and it should be wrapped by the class of the object.


final_val = feval (class_type, val);
