[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53844] handle class: delete destructor method cannot access class properties

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #53844 (project octave):

Yeah, I understand why it is happening but I'm not sure what the appropriate
fix is yet.

The problem is that in this case, the delete method is called when there is a
pending result in the evaluator.  Then any expression that is evaluated as
part of the delete method wipes out the pending value.

I also noticed another issue with delete.  The Matlab docs say that for


x = some_handle_object ();
y = x;
delete (x);


both y and x should be deleted but Octave doesn't do that.  Maybe this problem
should have a separate report.
