function retval = TranslateSBML()
  retval.b = "B";
  retval.c = makechildstruct();
endfunction

function retval = GetSubstruct()
  for i = 1:10
    retval(i).d = i;
  endfor
endfunction

The jist of what I'm trying to do is that I want to be able to end up with 
an index like

a.c(1).d

instead of

a.c{1}.d

as I currently get.  I will also be creating sub-...-sub-structures, but I 
assume that will be a straight-up extension of whatever you show me here. 
I will also be needing (in a different function) to read out these 
sub-...-sub-structures.  Is there a good source of documentation on how to 
use the Octave C++ types and classes (the header files seem bare of 
comments)?

I realize that my example C++ code is probably very wrong in a best coding 
practices sense (I'm learning C++ at the same time that I'm trying to 
write this).
