With the current interface, this is probably the best you can do:
dim = [3,2];
param = 1:6;
param = num2cell(param); %each object param must be an element of a cell array
obj_arr(prod(dim)) = Class; %initialise all empty
obj_arr = reshape(obj_arr, dim); %reshape into desired shape
[obj_arr.prop] = param{:}; %deal each parameter to each object
If you use the same interface as the struct function where if the input is a cell array, the output is a structure array, then you could have this:
classdef Class %what a dangerous name! Too close to the all useful: class
properties
prop
end
methods
function obj = Class(param)
if nargin
if iscell(param)
[obj(1:numel(param)).prop] = param{:};
else
obj.prop = param;
end
end
end
end
end
%usage:
param = num2cell(1:6);
obj_arr = Class(param) %create a 1x6 array
celldisp({obj.arr}) %verify that each object got a single param.
