[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #61673] classdef - (Access = hidden) results in spurious figure window

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #61673 (project octave):

I assume the way Octave is evaluating the attributes was just done because it
was easy?  Adding more restrictions on the exact form that is acceptable and
not actually evaluating the expressions (so that we don't call functions with
side effects, for example) is more difficult but something we clearly should
be doing.  If the block is empty, then there is no need to examine the
contents of the attributes list if the block is empty.  The only requirement
is that the basic syntax is OK.  I see no reason for Octave to do that
differently.
