How do I set a read-only class to a specific value

Hello!

I was wondering is there a way to set the NumBytesAvailiable property of tcpclient to a specific value, to act in a way that the InputBufferSize functionality worked in previous versions of Matlab?

Thanks in advance!

No, there is not. And if there was a way, setting the NumBytesAvailable would confuse the system because it would either lose track of data in the buffer (if you are reducing NumBytesAvailable) or would not have data in the buffer available (if you are increasing NumBytesAvailable)

If your purpose is to sort of reduce NumBytesAvailable to imitate a smaller input buffer, then at the point that data is to be read, ask it to read the minimum of NumBytesAvailable and the desired buffer size.

Thank you so much for the response! This makes a lot of sense
