MATLAB: Constant properties in classes

constant properties in classesoop

Hi,

is it possible to define a constant property in a class which depends on other constant properties in the same class?

Would that also be correct?

thank you for your answer in advance!

Yes, constant properties can be calculated from other constant properties. It's the first example in the doc actually.

This is a bug:

https://www.mathworks.com/support/bugreports/1212962

The bug report mentions Static methods but the same issue applies to Constant properties.

Functions need inputs and outputs, so you will need to define the function su as

function out = su(app)
    out = app.a+app.b
end

and inside your app

function ButtonPushed(app, event)
    c = su(app);
    app.cEditField.Value = c;
end

Now, as to whether this structure for the app and function is a good structure, that's a separate question.
