Details:

The following class throws a syntax error in Octave 4.2.0:


classdef MyClass
    properties
        x = 0
    end
end



>> obj = MyClass
parse error near line 4 of file C:\dev\MyClass.m

  syntax error

>>>         x = 0
                  ^


If I add a *semicolon* at the end of the line "x = 0;" then it works. MATLAB
doesn't require the semicolon, and works either way:
