[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47763] load: function handle to user function uses full path, should just search load path

[Piotr Held]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #47763 (project octave):

I have created a patch for this problem. It is in file patch_bug47763.diff.

As I mentioned before some of the problem was connected to lazy function
handle evaluation. So I implemented it as well in this patch. Basically when
no function is found a octave_user_function is created with a new bool
property dummy_function. Calling octave_user_function::call() on this function
causes a lazy feval evaluation using the function name. I also added an
octave_value::is_dummy_function() query to tell if a certain function is a
dummy function.

I also added a new test folder with tests for the lazy function handle
evaluation. I did not add tests for this exact problem,  however I manually
tested the original sequence as well as a case where there is ambiguity (like
in comment Comment #6 <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?47763#comment6>) and
everything worked for me.
