[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #36311] NoSuchMethodException: questdlg, errordlg, helpdlg, inputdlg, warndlg

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #36311 (project octave):

(Sorry for posting here, I'll keep it short)

Nitram,

questdlg's arguments are fed directly to Java methods, and Java doesn't know
how to handle Octave cell data types.
So, questdlg doesn't accept cell arguments. What makes you think that you can
substitute cellstr arrays where plain text strings are to be expected?
What do you expect/hope to get as output?

I'd agree that perhaps more rigid input validation is needed for the Java ui
functions.
