[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58572] cellfun calls overloaded functions for class method isnumeric called instead of built-in isnumeric

[Rik]

Update of bug #58572 (project octave):

              Item Group:        Incorrect Result => Regression             
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Summary: class method isnumeric called instead of built-in
isnumeric => cellfun calls overloaded functions for class method isnumeric
called instead of built-in isnumeric

Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed.  It seems that when cellfun looks for a function signature to match
isnumeric() it is automatically pickup up the classdef version.  But, the
signature for the classdef version is


bool = isnumeric (OBJECT)


and given that cellfun is actually calling


isnumeric ("STRING")


it should instead be picking up the built-in version of isnumeric which has
that signature.

I'll add jwe to the CC list, although he will probably see this bug pretty
quickly.
