Wrong function name in tokens when defined without parentheses and docstring

[H0R5E]

Hi,

Given a function defined like so in a file test.m:

function bob = test
bob = 1;
disp("bob")
end

In this case matlabdomain will generate a warning WARNING: [sphinxcontrib-matlabdomain] Unexpected function name: 'bob'. Expected 'test' in module ''.

The tokens provided to the MatFunction class seem to be wrong for this case. I captured them as follows:

[(Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Keyword, 'end'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ')'), (Token.Literal.String, '"bob"'), (Token.Punctuation, '('), (Token.Name.Builtin, 'disp'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ';'), (Token.Literal.Number.Integer, '1'), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Punctuation, '='), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Name, 'bob'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Name, 'test'), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Punctuation, '='), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Name.Function, 'bob')]

Note the (Token.Name.Function, 'bob') at the end.

When you include parentheses the tokens are correct:

function bob = test()
bob = 1;
disp("bob")
end

[(Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Keyword, 'end'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ')'), (Token.Literal.String, '"bob"'), (Token.Punctuation, '('), (Token.Name.Builtin, 'disp'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ';'), (Token.Literal.Number.Integer, '1'), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Punctuation, '='), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Name, 'bob'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ')'), (Token.Punctuation, '('), (Token.Name.Function, 'test')]

And also when you include a docstring:

function bob = test
%bob
bob = 1;
disp("bob")
end

[(Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Keyword, 'end'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ')'), (Token.Literal.String, '"bob"'), (Token.Punctuation, '('), (Token.Name.Builtin, 'disp'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ';'), (Token.Literal.Number.Integer, '1'), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Punctuation, '='), (Token.Text, ' '), (Token.Name, 'bob'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Comment, '%bob'), (Token.Text.Whitespace, '\n'), (Token.Punctuation, ')'), (Token.Punctuation, '('), (Token.Name.Function, 'test')]

I've run these tests against the master branch. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes,

Mat

Thanks for the detailed report. I'm away from my computer at the moment. I'll look into it as soon as I get back.
