[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59591] Error when saving a MAT file with -v6

[Markus Mützel]

Update of bug #59591 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
        Operating System:               GNU/Linux => Any

Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed.

An example that is probably easier to reproduce (because it doesn't involve
classes) is the following:

c.a = 'xx';
c.d = '';
save test_struct_oct7.mat c -v6
load test_struct_oct7.mat


The error message is the same as in the original report.

This also errors:

c.a = 'xx';
c.d = 1;
save test_struct2_oct7.mat c -v6
load test_struct2_oct7.mat


This does not:

c.a = 1;
c.d = 1;
save test_struct3_oct7.mat c -v6
load test_struct3_oct7.mat


It looks like there is an error if strings are saved in fields.

Might be related to this change:

I'll try to have a look at this soon.
