Details:


i use octave 3.7.5 to check for sth. 

examples: 

x=java_get("eu.simuline.arithmetics.MathExt", "CONTEXT_DUAL_DOUBLE")
x =

<Java object: java.math.MathContext>

is ok. 


 x=java_get("eu.simuline.arithmetics.left2right.XFPNumberMult","X_MATH_CONTEXT")
x =

<Java object: >


is not entirely ok but does not matter (classname missing) 


x=java_get("eu.simuline.arithmetics.left2right.XFPNumberMult","ONE")
x =  1


very bad because class(x) is double 
although it should be <Java object: XXX> 

The bad effect is that i cannot access a method of x 
via x.method() notation. 

I know that this was different in Michael Gouffiols old package.
