[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44036] interpreter does not recognize classdef (syntax error)

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #44036 (project octave):

I don't think this is expected to work.

Do you want a better error message that says that classdef objects must be
defined in files?

Looking at oct-parse.in.yy, I see:


classdef_beg    : CLASSDEF
                  {
                    if (! lexer.reading_classdef_file)
                      {
                        parser.bison_error ("classdef must appear inside a
file containing only a class definition");
                        YYABORT;
                      }

                    lexer.parsing_classdef = true;
                    $$ = $1;
                  }
                ;


I guess this message is somehow not being triggered for your example.
