Automatic Type Conversion

[r-j-k]

Hi,

I have a special matrix type, my_matrix, defined in an oct file. I want my
my_matrix to be automatically converted to an octave matrix when a function
is called expecting an octave matrix. Is this possible? I have implemented
the matrix_value() and is_real_matrix() methods. Currently, I get the
following when I attempt to use such functions:

octave:6> x = my_matrix(1);
octave:7> log(x);
error: mapper: wrong type argument `my_matrix'
octave:7> eig(x);
error: eig: wrong type argument `matrix'

Any tips?

Thanks.
