Follow-up Comment #1:

If Matlab says that a Java null object is converted into a Matlab empty
matrix, then it's working as expected.

According to my reading this is correct. A null value returned from Java
should become an Octave empty (double) matrix. Any empty numeric matrix passed
in to Java should be treated as a null reference.

The typical Octave equivalent to "x == null" is "isempty (x)". This is an
extremely common usage, so it makes sense that a Java null would be returned
as an empty array.

If you create a "static boolean isNull (Object obj)" function, and pass it
various empty (numeric) matrices, they should all return true.

Nothing needs to be fixed here.
