Confirmed.  In fact, I checked backwards through version 4.2.1 and this behavior has always been the same.

I changed the summary to be more specific about the issue involved.  I've also attached the file goo.m that is used for testing.

Here is a test session which demonsrates the problem


octave:2> dbstop goo 2
ans =  2
octave:3> dbstop goo 6
ans =  6
octave:4> dbstatus
breakpoint in goo at line 2
breakpoint in goo>hoo at line 6
octave:5> dbclear all
octave:6> dbstatus
octave:7> dbstop goo 2
ans =  2
octave:8> dbstatus
breakpoint in goo at line 2
breakpoint in goo>hoo at line 6


If the breakpoint in the subfunction is explicitly cleared then there is no issue.  See the slightly different sequence below.


octave:2> dbstop goo 2
ans =  2
octave:3> dbstop goo 6
ans =  6
octave:4> dbstatus
breakpoint in goo at line 2
breakpoint in goo>hoo at line 6
octave:5> dbclear goo>hoo
octave:6> dbstatus
breakpoint in goo at line 2
octave:7> dbclear all
octave:8> dbstatus
octave:9> dbstop goo 2
ans =  2
octave:10> dbstatus
breakpoint in goo at line 2


This is likely to be related to how breakpoints are organized which is under the name of the main function.

below is a funny looking script showing – at least in my view – that dbclear is not working as expected.


fid = fopen("goo.m", "wt") ;
fputs(fid, "function goo\n\
   hoo() ;\n\
endfunction\n\
\n\
function hoo\n\
   disp('hoo') ;\n\
endfunction\n") ;
fclose(fid) ;

addpath .

dbstop goo 2 ;
dbstop goo 6 ;
dbstatus

dbclear all

dbstop goo 2 ;
dbstatus


The second dbstop (goo 6) is still there.
