MATLAB: Does the documentation for ODE functions in MATLAB 7.4 (R2007a) not show how to view the syntax used in MATLAB version 5 (R12)

235backwardcompatabilityMATLABodeode113ode45version

The MATLAB 7.4 (R2007a) documentation does not mention how to view the MATLAB 5 syntax for the ODE45 command.

Best Answer

Information about how to view the MATLAB Version 5 syntax for ODE functions is currently missing from the documentation. However, if you type:

help ode45

There is a note that states that in order to see the v5 help, type the following at the MATLAB command line:

more on, type ode45, more off

MATLAB: Is MATLAB 7.4 (R2007a) for Intel Mac universal

MATLAB 7.4 (R2007a) is Universal.

It has both native PowerPC binaries (in $matlabroot/bin/mac) and native Intel binaries (in $matlabroot/bin/maci), and the appropriate binary is run natively when you start MATLAB.

The StartMATLAB.app application is a tiny stub helper application which starts the MATLAB executable. StartMATLAB is itself a universal binary, and runs natively on both PowerPC and on Intel. It calls the MATLAB shell script which starts the correct native MATLAB binary executable. The shell script, when called directly, automatically recognizes the correct architecture.

The InstallForMacOSX.app installer is also universal binary, but it only installs the correct native binary matching the architecture it is installing on. So, a PowerPC Mac install will only contain $matlabroot/bin/mac binaries, while an Intel Mac install will only contain $matlabroot/bin/maci binaries.

This means that R2007a is Universal, and runs with native performance on both Intel and PowerPc.

MATLAB: Does MATLAB 7.4 (R2007a) crash when launching Simulink

This error may be caused by a Sun Java bug that has been fixed in a newer Java update.

As a workaround, try downloading and installing the most recent JRE 1.5 update release and set the system environment variable MATLAB_JAVA to point to that JRE installation.

Complete instructions for doing so are located at:

There are no API compatibility issues between update releases of Java 5.

As a last resort you could also try using Java 6. However there is at least one known issue with the documentation browser when running Java 6 with a pre 2008a release of MATLAB.

You can work around this issue by executing the command:

com.mathworks.mlwidgets.html.HTMLRenderer.setUseWebRenderer(false);

Followed by a MATLAB restart. This will switch them over to the old HTML rendering component (used before R2006b), which has somewhat worse HTML rendering but at least won't crash.
