Follow-up Comment #11, bug #55667 (project octave):
Another place where there may be a compatibility issue is for calling static
class methods. As I understand it, if a class named "foo" has a static member
function named "bar", then
Foo.bar
should call the static member function. What does Matlab do for
Foo.bar.baz
? Is this an error? If not, what happens with the ".baz" part of this
expression?
Octave currently ignores the ".baz" part, which I think is wrong. If we did
the same as for other functions, then we would call foo.bar and then index the
result with ".baz". It may be possible, though I think it will be more
complicated than making it an error.
