Checking octave_value equality (==) without generating an error?

[Michael Goffioul]

Hi,

I'm looking for a function/method that would check whether 2 octave_value objects are equal, but I don't want to generate an error (e.g. if objects are not comparable, then I simply want to return false). AFAIK do_binary_op will generate an error if required. Is there such method in octave?

For the record: this is in the context of property set-accessor [1][2]

Michael.
