[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48182] uiputfile returns incorrect filename

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #48182 (project octave):

Annoying.  This is clearly an issue in uiputfile.m.  After calling the file
dialog function it post-processes the result.  See below.


  ## Append extension to the name if it isn't already added.
  if (ischar (retfile))
    ext = outargs{1}{retindex};
    ext = strrep (ext, "*", "");

    if (length (retfile) >= length (ext))
      if (! strcmp (retfile(end-length (ext)+1:end), ext))
        retfile = [retfile ext];
      endif
    endif
  endif


Does anyone know if this whole if branch is necessary anymore?  I'd just as
soon delete the whole thing.
