[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58572] cellfun calls overloaded functions for class method isnumeric called instead of built-in isnumeric

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #58572 (project octave):

Thanks.  So it knows that @isnumeric is defined inside the c_tst class but it
does the dispatching correctly based on the argument types.  That makes sense,
but I assume there is some other use case for this type of handle that makes
use of the class info?  Also, it seems weird to me that it has the "file"
field set to "MATLAB built-in function".  I mean, if you made a function call
with this handle and passed a c_tst object to it, I assume you wouldn't call
the built-in isnumeric function.
