What object do you want to clone? Can you give details?

Dear Sprinceana:

I want to clone any instance of a handle classes.

Now I use a pseudo_clone defined by a method in the class 'Handle < handle'

function Clone(oObj,oCln)
oMeta = PMeta.HProp(oObj,{'Name','SetAccess','IsHandle'});
clProp = oMeta.clName;
clSetAccess = oMeta.clSetAccess;
loIsHandle = oMeta.loIsHandle;
dNoRows = oMeta.dNoRows;

for dNoR = 1:dNoRows
    if(~strcmp(clSetAccess{dNoR},'public')), continue; end
    tTmp = oObj.(clProp{dNoR});
    if(loIsHandle(dNoR))
        oCln.(clProp{dNoR}) = feval(class(tTmp));
        Clone(tTmp,oCln.(clProp{dNoR}));
    else
        oCln.(clProp{dNoR}) = tTmp;
    end
end

The function Clone can not works in your computer since many other relative methods are needed. I knows that the 'Clone' is not completed, but I can do nothing except
waiting matlab to surport clone as in C++,C#.

Look forward
