Confirmed.

I patched the stable branch of Octave here (https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/a0d642f24349), but it may not make it in to the 4.4.1 bug fix release which just started.  You can always patch your own local copy of inputParser.m since the fix is only three lines.

Using the struct expansion feature of inputParser with a struct with no fields as input produces an error instead of returning default values in Results.

To reproduce the problem consider the following minimal example:


test = inputParser();
addParameter(test, 'param', 1)
parse(test, struct())


which produces the following error:


error: non-string for Parameter name or Switch
error: called from
    error at line 553 column 7
    parse at line 459 column 11
