How to get the handle of a method in an Object (cl

问题:

I'm trying to grab a method handle from within an object in MATLAB, yet something in the sort of str2func('obj.MethodName') is not working

The answer is to get a function handle as @Pablo has shown.

Note that your class should be derived from the handle class for this to work correctly (so that the object is passed by reference).

Consider the following example:

Hello.m

classdef hello < handle
    properties
        name = '';
    end
    methods
        function this = hello()
            this.name = 'world';
        end
        function say(this)
            fprintf('Hello %s!\n', this.name);
        end
    end
end

Now we get a handle to the member function, and use it:

obj = hello();         %# create object
f = @obj.say;          %# get handle to function

obj.name = 'there';    %# change object state

obj.say()
f()

The output:

Hello there!
Hello there!

However if we define it as a Value Class instead (change first line to classdef hello), the output would be different:

Hello there!
Hello world!

One could also write

fstr = 'say';
obj.(fstr)();

This has the advantage that it does not require a handle class to work if the object (obj) is modified.

Use @. The following code works for me:

f = @obj.MethodName
