[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #40828] Exception handling: MException object functions

[Guillaume]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #40828 (project octave):

Thanks, it seems the MException class doesn't do much - it's mainly a wrapper
around built-in rethrow () defined for structs. For the getReport method, I
would need the output of rethrow () as a string, would there be a way to get
access to that?

In Matlab, rethrow () only works in the context of "try/catch ME" so the ME
object in that instance should have a private flag hasBeenCaught set to true
so that we can reproduce the same behavior. Do we need to define an accessor
to set that property or could the code defining "try/catch ME" do that
directly?

I also notice that, when run twice, "test MException" will return an error:


class not found: MException


It doesn't seem to be specific to this class (i.e. handling of errors). I'll
try to come up with a small class reproducing the issue.
