In MATLAB, when working with ".NET" objects, you typically don't have the same syntax flexibility as in "C#" for initializing objects with property values directly in the constructor. However, you can create a helper function or use a struct to streamline the initialization process.
Here's an example of how you might achieve a more compact syntax:
Using a Helper Function
You can define a helper function to initialize the properties of the "Person" object:
function person = createPerson(firstName, lastName, age)
person = Assembly.Person();
person.FirstName = firstName;
person.LastName = lastName;
person.Age = age;
end
Then, you can create a "Person" object like this:
x = createPerson("Homer", "Simpson", 47);
Using a Struct for Initialization
Alternatively, you can define a struct to hold the properties and then assign them in a loop:
props = struct('FirstName', "Homer", 'LastName', "Simpson", 'Age', 47);
x = Assembly.Person();
fields = fieldnames(props);
for i = 1:numel(fields)
x.(fields{i}) = props.(fields{i});
end
This approach allows you to define all properties in a single struct and then apply them to the object.
Hope this helps!
