How fix the error as: Unrecognized function or variable 'getAnsysInfo'?

Dear all,

I have a question. I am using MATLAB and I have included a toolbox (from the company I work for). When running a code, such an error appears: (apparently the code I am running uses some functions like getAnsysInfo from the toolbox - but I am not sure even after proper installation of the toolbox I still get such an error and it cannot identify thegetAnsysInfo function!)

Unrecognized function or variable 'getAnsysInfo'.

Any ideas how to fix it? (I copied and pasted the directory path of a .m MATLAB code which includes the 'getAnsysInfo' code into the 'startup.m' script. But no success)!

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Try adding the path to your MATLAB Path. If you are doing this in your startup.m file, see here. Otherwise, you can edit the path yourself. See here.

Ideally, if it is all packaged as a toolbox, you can install the toolbox by double clicking on the associated *.mltbx file. If that doesn't exist, you might want to recommend it. See here.

Thanks Cris,

it is not *.mltbx file (so we only add some files). Such files are stored in a specific folder which we call a module folder.

I think i need to go over the 2 links you provided to add the path to the startup file (I did it before but again it fails and I need to add the modeules and the corresponding folders each tmie I launch MATLAB). Let me see if I can fix it some how.

The easiest thing to do, then, is navigate to the folder containg this module, the rt click on it and select Add to Path > Selected Folders and Subfolders

Then in your command window, run the following command

savepath

Great hepl, thanks!

the only method worked was the last one (I tried to type the command to get the module via include.module('path'), in the startup.m file. saving and typing matlabrc, but did not work.)
