[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53844] handle class: delete destructor method cannot access class properties

[John W. Eaton]

Update of bug #53844 (project octave):

                  Status:             In Progress => Ready For Test

Follow-up Comment #11:

I pushed the following changeset on stable:

  http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/97f1d513aaf6

This change (and also
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/0548e32e6b27) modifies a public
interface so it might not be possible for some .oct files compiled for 4.4.0
to work with newer 4.4.x releases, or for .oct files compiled for a future
4.4.x release to work with 4.4.0.  But as I understand it, that would be
limited to code that actually uses these fairly obscure interfaces.  Should we
care about that?  If so, then I'm willing to defer this change until version
5, but then I think we should just completely disable automatically calling
the delete method for classdef handle objects in any future 4.4.x releases. 
Comments?
