MATLAB Object-Oriented Programming

classdef (ClassAttributes) ClassName < SuperClass

...

end

For example, this classdef defines a class called MyClass that subclasses the handle

class, but cannot be used to derive subclasses:

classdef (Sealed) MyClass < handle

...

end

See, “Classdef Block” on page 5-10 for more syntax information.

Properties Block

The properties block (one for each unique set of attribute specifications) contains

property definitions, including optional initial values. The properties block starts with the

properties keyword and terminates with the end keyword.

classdef ClassName

properties (PropertyAttributes)

...

end

...

end

For example, this class defines a property called Prop1 that has private access and has a

default value equal to the output of the date function.

classdef MyClass

properties (SetAccess = private)

Prop1 = date

end

...

end

See “Property Definition” on page 8-17 for more information.

Methods Block

The methods block (one for each unique set of attribute specifications) contains function

definitions for the class methods. The methods block starts with the methods keyword

and terminates with the end keyword.
