[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57533] Incorrect error message when assigning to a subset of a 3+ dimensional array

[Rik]

Update of bug #57533 (project octave):

                Severity:              3 - Normal => 2 - Minor              
              Item Group:                    None => Other                  
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Release:                   5.1.0 => dev

Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed.  Matlab, as well as Octave in the 2-D case, get it right.

This is probably something about reporting the dimensions of the original base
matrix, rather than the dimensions of the object after indexing.  As an
example of that,


octave:21> a = zeros (3,4,5);
octave:22> b = ones (2,2);
octave:23> a(1,:,2) = b
error: =: nonconformant arguments (op1 is 3x4x5, op2 is 2x2)
