Details:

Making an array of classdef objects using square barckets like below does not
work in octave:


>> x = method_debug_test ()
x =

<object method_debug_test>

>> y = method_debug_test ()
y =

<object method_debug_test>

>> z = [x, y]
warning: struct: converting a classdef object into a struct overrides the
access restrictions defined for properties. All properties are returned,
including private and protected ones.
error: invalid conversion of multi-dimensional struct to scalar struct
>>


In matlab I get:


>> x = method_debug_test ()

x = 

  method_debug_test with no properties.

>> y = method_debug_test ()

y = 

  method_debug_test with no properties.

>> [x, y]

ans = 

  1×2 method_debug_test array with no properties.
