Update of bug #52585 (project octave):
Summary: type cannot list the source of a function in a
namespace => Functions in namespace directories are not recognized by path
functions such as which() or type()
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #5:
As another workaround, can also give the namespace and the m-file name.
type +containers/Map.m
The root problem is that which() should be able to find
+containers/Map
containers/Map
Map
when the parent directory to +containers is on the the path.
As yet another workaround, adding the namespace to the path explicitly makes
things work.
addpath scripts/+containers
This is probably a clue as to the eventual solution. When directories are
added using addpath, they should probably be scanned for +namespace
directories and those might be added to the internal path variable, although
not displayed if someone calls path().
