MATLAB: Error when deriving class from mlreportgen.dom.Document super-class

MATLABmlreportgen.dom.documentreport generatorsuper-class

I'm on the R2010b version of MATLAB and I have the report generator and license (license test matlab_report_gen == 1). When I try to create a class using the super-class mlreportgen.dom.Document, I get the following error:

The specified super-class 'mlreportgen.dom.Document' contains a parse error or cannot be found on MATLAB's search path, possibly shadowed by another file with the same name.

I've tried using the example MATLAB code here but I run into the same error.

Solved previously by staff member Sean de Wolski, "... the DOM API was released in R2014b so you'll need to upgrade to that release or newer".

MATLAB: How to use a custom Word template for headers and footers in MATLAB Report Generator

To use a custom-made Word template, create a new document using the "mlreportgen.dom.Document" constructor and set the "templatePath" property to your DOTX file. Here is the documentation for a Document object:

<https://www.mathworks.com/help/rptgen/ug/mlreportgen.dom.document-class.html>

And here is a simple example using a custom-made template file from MS Word within the MALTAB Report Generator API:

import mlreportgen.dom.*

d = Document('MyWordDoc', 'docx', 'CustomTemplate.dotx'); %assuming template is in same folder; otherwise, specify full path

open(d);

append(d,'Hello World'); % add some text to generate doc

close(d);

rptview(d.OutputPath)

This formatting for headers and footers will disappear if you are adding chapters to the report. To customize chapter page headers, see the following documented examples for creating and editing chapter templates:

MATLAB: MATLAB cannot find super-class ‘matlab.system.SFunCore’ when using Computer Vision System toolbox

Hi,

please never mix up files from two different MATLAB releases. Please reinstall the Trial Toolbox again. If it still not work, please contact the installation Support. They can help you in order to set up a clean and working MATLAB + Toolbox installation.

I am wondering that you can actually see a file for this since for me in R2011a:

which -all matlab.system.SFunCore
matlab.system.SFunCore is a built-in method  % matlab.system.SFunCore constructor

So its a built in. Please run the same command and check the output. If other output than the above is displayed you have overloaded the constructor. Please remove the overloaded constructor if one exists.
