Why can't I instanciate, create, construct class objects via cellfun?

This is an example class file:

classdef tmp < handle
properties
    str
end
methods
    function self = tmp(str)
        self.str = str;
    end
end
end

Then

cellfun(@tmp,{'a','b'})

produces the error:

Error using cellfun
tmp output type is not currently implemented.

Use 'uniform', 0 for cellfun. If you need to convert to a matrix afterwards you can cell2mat()

OK this works:

cellfun(@tmp,{'a','b'},'uniform',0)

Thanks.
