Run same function for different objects from same class

Hey guys,

I am still a beginner in OOP. Hope, that the question is not too stupid ;).

Let's assume geMode1,geMode2,geMode3,geMode4 and geMode5 are objects of the Mode Class. How is it possible to execute the testfct function in one line of code (preferably without for-loop) so that it is applied to all objects?

One example could be

function obj = testfct(obj,color)
obj.color = color; 
end

I want all objects to have the same color. To define obj = {geMode1,geMode2....} does not really work.

Thanks for your help :)

Look into structfun()

Hi,

You can try initializing color property of the object in the constructor of the Model class. Refer to the following link for more details:

Hope this helps!

arrayfun(@(obj) testfct(obj, SomeColor), [geMode1, geMode2, geMode3, geMode4, geMode5])

Provided that they are handle class. If not then modifying them in a compact way becomes more difficult.
