Clear persistent variables of function on worker

5 views (last 30 days)
I need to clear the persistent variables of a function on all workers after having called it from a parallelized statement.
parfor n = 1 : N
persistentFunction()
end
spmd
clear persistentFunction
end
The above will not work because clear cannot be called from an spmd statement.
How can I clear persistentFunction ?

Whenever you issue a clear command at the client, the same clear command is issued on the workers. So you can simply do
clear persistentFunction
