It is important to note that ## @code{subsindex} must return a zero-based real integer vector of the class ## @qcode{"double"}. For example, if the class constructor were ## ## @example ## @group ## function obj = myclass (a) ## obj = class (struct ("a", a), "myclass"); ## endfunction ## @end group ## @end example ## ## @noindent ## then the @code{subsindex} function ## ## @example ## @group ## function idx = subsindex (obj) ## idx = double (obj.a) - 1.0; ## endfunction ## @end group ## @end example ## ## @noindent ## could be used as follows ## ## @example ## @group ## a = myclass (1:4); ## b = 1:10; ## b(a) ## @result{} 1 2 3 4 ## @end group ## @end example ## ## @seealso{class, subsref, subsasgn} ## @end deftypefn function idx = subsindex (obj) if (nargin < 1) print_usage (); endif ## Only way to get here is if subsindex has not been overloaded by a class. error ('subsindex: not defined for class "%s"', class (obj)); endfunction %!error <not defined for class "double"> subsindex (1) ## Test input validation %!error <Invalid call> subsindex ()
