MATLAB: How to turn off a warning permanently in MATLAB 7.6 (R2008a)

MATLABoffpermanantlyturnwarningwarnings

I am getting a divide by zero warning and I want to turn it off permanently so that when I restart MATLAB the warning does not show up again.

Best Answer

Warnings can be turned off using the WARNING function available in MATLAB. For example the WARNING function can be used as shown below:

 warning off <Warning ID>

Add these types of lines into the STARTUP.m file for the warning messages that you wish to turn off. If a 'startup.m' file does not exist, create one on the MATLAB path. You cannot permanently remove warnings from MATLAB.

MATLAB: How to turn off a particular warning in MATLAB

This change has been incorporated into the documentation in Release 2010a (R2010a). For previous releases, read below for any additional information:

The general method for suppressing a warning message is to issue the following command at the prompt:

warning('off', MSGID)

The string 'MSGID' is a unique identifier that corresponds to a particular warning message.

There are two ways to determine what a warning's identifier is, so that it can be suppressed later:

1) Just after the specific warning has been issued, run the following command:

[a, MSGID] = lastwarn();

This will save the message identifier to the variable MSGID. Then you can use the command given above to turn that particular warning off.

2) Turn on verbose warning messages with the following command:

warning on verbose

When warnings are displayed, they will include the command that can be used to turn that warning off.

This issue can also be caused by use of unsupported compilers. Check if you are using compiler that is in the supported compilers list. You can obtain this list from the following link:

If your compiler is unsupported, install and use a supported compiler.
