@Markus: I made some small edits and checked in the code here: https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/5b9067c17e4b.

The biggest was commenting out the BIST test cases until we have a way for the tests to 1) take less time and 2) not fail under heavy load.

Sorry for taking so long. I forgot about this bug.
The attached patch is rebased to the current tip.
I had to increase the pause in the tests to 0.5 seconds. But it still sometimes fails under heavy load.

@Markus: I went to review your patch but it no longer applies cleanly to the dev branch.  Could you refresh?  Sorry I waited so longe.

The attached changeset adds the "listeners" that update the respective properties.

For some reason, I had to add a "pause (0.1)" each time after changing a property in the BISTs or the tests would fail.

For the first set of tests, it may be that uibuttongroup needs a "listener" on its own "children" property.  In Octave,


octave:1> hf = figure ('visible', 'off');
octave:2> bg = uibuttongroup (hf);
octave:3> get (bg, 'selectedobject')
ans = [](0x0)
octave:4> b1 = uicontrol (bg, 'style', 'radiobutton');
octave:5> get (bg, 'selectedobject')
ans = [](0x0)


If I try the same code in Matlab then as soon as the uibuttongroup has a single child it becomes the 'selectedobject'.

That would explain the first two false results.

In Matlab, I see all true for both code blocks.
I will try whether moving the buttons changes anything for Octave.

Take a look at libgui/graphics/ButtonGroup.cc.

There is a function there  


ButtonGroup::update (int pId)


which handles what updates are processed by the ButtonGroup object.

There is a case for SELECTEDOBJECT so some of this code should work.

Also, I think you want to position the radio buttons so they aren't on top of each other.  It may be that having two buttons exactly on top of each other is confusing Octave.

The attached patch essentially adds the following as tests for uibuttongroup (here in a Matlab compatible form):


hf = figure ('visible', 'off');
bg = uibuttongroup (hf);
b1 = uicontrol (bg, 'style', 'radiobutton');
b2 = uicontrol (bg, 'style', 'radiobutton');
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (bg, 'selectedobject'), b1)
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 1)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 0)
% select radiobutton 2
set (bg, 'selectedobject', b2);
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 0)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 1)
% set radiobutton 1
set (b1, 'value', 1);
isequal (get (bg, 'selectedobject'), b1)
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 1)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 0)
% unset all radiobuttons
set (bg, 'selectedobject', []);
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 0)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 0)
close (hf);



hf = figure ('visible', 'off');
bg = uibuttongroup (hf);
b1 = uicontrol (bg, 'style', 'togglebutton');
b2 = uicontrol (bg, 'style', 'togglebutton');
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (bg, 'selectedobject'), b1)
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 1)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 0)
% select togglebutton 2
set (bg, 'selectedobject', b2);
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 0)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 1)
% set togglebutton 1
set (b1, 'value', 1);
isequal (get (bg, 'selectedobject'), b1)
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 1)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 0)
% unset all togglebuttons
set (bg, 'selectedobject', []);
pause (0.1);
isequal (get (b1, 'value'), 0)
isequal (get (b2, 'value'), 0)
close (hf);


I haven't tried it with Matlab yet. But I would expect all isequals to return true.

While it looks like a uibuttongroup works correctly when interacting with its radiobutton or togglebutton children with the mouse, it doesn't seem react on setting the respective properties.

I'll upload a changeset which adds some failing tests as soon as  have a bug number.
