Add-ons
MATLAB add-ons and environments
MATLAB add-ons broaden the use of MATLAB considerably!
Instead of writing code yourself there may be others that have done the same!
Isolated environments solve a couple of problems:
You can install specific, also older, versions into them.
You can create one for each project and no problem if the two projects require different versions.
You can remove the environment and create a new one, if not needed or with errors.
Questions
How to install add-ons?
How to work with isolated environments?
How to check for and use the UPPMAX pre-installed add-ons?
Objectives
Give a general theoretical introduction to isolated environments
Show how to install own add-ons
Show how to check for MATLAB add-ons at UPPMAX
Before going into installing add-ons let’s have a background to the MATLAB environments and ecosystem!
MATLAB Add-Ons manager
- In the GUI, the Add-Ons manager can be selected from the menu at the top. The drop-down menu options allow users to:
Browse a library of Add-Ons to download. Note that some Add-Ons require a separate license.
Manage Add-Ons already downloaded.
Package user-generated code as a Toolbox or App
Get hardware-related support packages
Here we will only focus on the first two options.
