- Using no input arguments, if the enumeration member defines no input arguments
- Using the input arguments defined in the enumeration class for that member
For example, the input arguments for the Bool class are 0 for Bool.No and 1 for
Bool.Yes.
classdef Bool < logical
enumeration
No (0)
Yes (1)
end
end
The values of 0 and 1 are of class logical because the default constructor passes the
argument to the first superclass. That is, this statement:
n = Bool.No;
Results in a call to logical that is equivalent to the following statement in a constructor:
function obj = Bool(val)
obj@logical(val)
end
MATLAB passes the member argument only to the first superclass. For example, suppose
Bool derived from another class:
classdef Bool < logical & MyBool
enumeration
No (0)
Yes (1)
end
end
The MyBool class can add some specialized behavior:
classdef MyBool
methods
function boolValues = testBools(obj)
...
end
end
end
The default Bool constructor behaves as if defined like this function:
