[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #43468] Bug in bar plot data update in Octave 3.8.1

[Ian Flintoft]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #43468 (project octave):


    In MATLAB R2013b the help says

"For vector inputs, bar(X,Y) or bar(Y) draws LENGTH(Y) bars."

For the previous example (but not using random data so I can be sure it's
working) in MATLAB R2013b:

>> genotype=ones(4,1)

genotype =

     1
     1
     1
     1

>> hl = bar(genotype)

hl =

  174.0016

>> genotype=2.*ones(4,1)

genotype =

     2
     2
     2
     2

>>  set (hl, 'YData', genotype); 

Updates as expected.

>> genotype=ones(1,4)

genotype =

     1     1     1     1

>> hl = bar(genotype)

hl =

  174.0022

>> genotype=2.*ones(1,4)

genotype =

     2     2     2     2

>> set (hl, 'YData', genotype);

Also updates as expected.

Looks like vectors are special-cased to work the same reqardless
of whether they are row or column vvectors.
