[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #55856] subsref called in a subscripted assignment operation

[Guillaume]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #55856 (project octave):

¯\(°_o)/¯ with the foo class defined in comment #1, subsref is indeed
called in Matlab for f.a(end)=1;


>> f = foo ();   
>> f.a = 1;
subsasgn
>> f.a(1)
subsref
ans =
     1
>> f.a(end)
subsref
subsref
ans =
     1
>> f.a(end)=1
subsref
subsasgn
f = 
       foo object: 1-by-1


If I define an "end" method like this:


function ind = end(obj, k, n)
  disp ("end");
  ind = 1;
end


the above doesn't change and the new method is only called for:


>> f(end)
end
subsref
ans = 
  struct with fields:
    a: 1
