[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46451] unable to set breakpoints within classdef classes

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #46451 (project octave):

After the fixes to bug #47680, command-style function calls of the form


dbstop @ftp/dir


no longer work.

I'd like to make dbstop compatible with Matlab for setting breakpoints in
classdef methods.  In addition to the syntax shown in comment #12, does
anything else work?  The Matlab docs show


dbstop in file
dbstop in file at location
dbstop in file if expression
dbstop in file at location if expression


and also say that FILE may be of the form "file>function".  Does that syntax
work for class methods or local functions in a classdef file?

The docs also say that LOCATION may be the name of a local function in the
file, but they don't explicitly state that the function name may be in the
form shown in comment #12 or explain that "local function" may be a classdef
method.
