Hi All,
Context: I'm attempting to overload a method of class without touching the class definition or explicitly declaring a subclass.
Question: Is it possible to dynamically overload a class method either by directly overloading, dynamically creating a subclass, or intercepting method calls?
Prior Work:
The odd error message produced by the following example gives me a dim hope that its possible directly . . .
Here's an example class
classdef Hello methods function sayHi(obj) fprintf('Hi\n') end endend
I then attempt to dynamically override the sayHi function, producing an error as follows:
helloObj = Hello;sayHola = @(obj) fprintf('Hola\n')helloObj.sayHi = sayHola;
Assignment not supported because the result of method 'sayHi' is a temporary value.
Is there a way to make "sayHi" produce a non temporary value? Or is that saying that @helloObj.sayHi is itself a temporary value?
