[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48428] Support for java.lang.XXX syntax

[Carnë Draug]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #48428 (project octave):

The only way I have to check the usefulness of supporting java.XXX only vs a
proper fix is via Octave Forge.


$ grep -horP 'javaObject\s*\(['"'"'"]\s*[a-zA-Z\.]*['"'"'"]'
octave-forge-super/ | grep -oP '(?<=['"'"'"]).*(?=['"'"'"])' | sort | uniq -c
| sort -rn
     23 com.sun.star.uno.Type
      7 org.odftoolkit.odfdom.doc.table.OdfTableCell
      6 java.io.File
      4 org.odftoolkit.odfdom.doc.table.OdfTableRow
      3 org.odftoolkit.odfdom.doc.text.OdfTextParagraph
      3 java.lang.Short
      3 java.io.FileOutputStream
      3 com.extentech.ExtenXLS.WorkBookHandle
      2 jxl.write.Label
      2 java.util.LinkedList
      2 java.io.FileInputStream

      1 jxl.write.Number

      1 jxl.write.Boolean

      1 java.io.StringWriter
      1 java.io.BufferedOutputStream


Which would suggest that supporting java.XXX only is not that important
(almost all of the hits are from the io package and some from ltfat). That
kind of makes sense, most of the stuff in the java namespace is core stuff
that Octave will already support natively. If it's being used, is for use in
java classes outside the java namespace.
