Example code:


x = javaObject ('java.lang.Float', 1.0)
x == x
error: binary operator '==' not implemented for 'octave_java' by 'octave_java'
operations
x != x
error: binary operator '!=' not implemented for 'octave_java' by 'octave_java'
operations


This might be resolved by installing a binary mapping for A == B of "A.equals
(B)".  Many important Java classes, like the numeric ones, support the
"equals" method.
