[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #64057] assert.m: struct comparison skips type checking for field values

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #64057 (project octave):

[(Erreur - Introuvable)]
My concern is that two bare variables that compare false in a base context,
due to type inconsistency, compare true when they are embedded in a struct.


assert (1, single (1)) ## -> error,  double != single
assert (struct ("num", 1), struct ("num", single (1))) ## -> ok, while value
types are still wrong


Again, this may be expected (e.g. for performance when traversing deeply
nested structures) but I just wanted to report it. At least now I know if I
care about type checking in structs, I should traverse all fields myself.
