[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53838] variable editor displays out of bounds error too frequently

[Marshall]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #53838 (project octave):

In following up with this, I thought I could add a little bit to example 1
that will perhaps make it more clear on how/when the "error" messages show up
in the console window. With the following modifications, running the following
line by line:

clear a
a.b(1).c = 'string';
a.b(1).e = [1 2 3];
a.b(2).c = 'string';
a.b(2).e = [1 2 3];

openvar a
%openvar a.b(2).e %Manually
a.b(2) = [];
a
1+1


I get the following at the console:


>> clear a

>> a.b(1).c = 'string';

>> a.b(1).e = [1 2 3];

>> a.b(2).c = 'string';

>> a.b(2).e = [1 2 3];

>> openvar a

>> a.b(2) = [];

>> a
error: a(2): out of bound 1

a =

  scalar structure containing the fields:

    b =

      scalar structure containing the fields:

        c = string
        e =

           1   2   3



>> 1+1
error: a(2): out of bound 1

ans =  2
>> error: a(2): out of bound 1



Notice all the "error: a(2): out of bound 1" statements printed at the
console. I notice that similar "out of bound" messages can be seen in the
images referenced in comment 3 as well, so they were obviously happening for
him even though he said he didn't see any of the "out of bound" errors.
