parenReference

Class: matlab.mixin.indexing.RedefinesParen
Namespace: matlab.mixin.indexing

Customize handling of object index references that begin with parentheses

Since R2021b

Syntax

varargout = parenReference(obj,indexOp)


Description

varargout = parenReference(obj,indexOp) handles index referencing operations that begin with parentheses, such as obj(idx) or obj(idx).prop{1}. The method returns the indexed values from obj. The indexOp object contains the indices being referenced.

Input Arguments

obj — Object that implements customized parentheses indexing

object

Object that implements customized parentheses indexing by inheriting from matlab.mixin.indexing.RedefinesParen.

indexOp — Types of indexing operations and indices referenced

array of IndexingOperation objects

Types of indexing operations and indices referenced, specified as an array of IndexingOperation objects. For a parentheses reference, the first object in the array has a Type property of Paren.

Output Arguments

varargout — Indexed values

cell array

The indexed values returned from the reference operation, specified as a cell array.
