If the setenv command fails with a message similar to setenv: command not found or setenv: not found, you may not be using a C Shell command interpreter (such as csh or tcsh).

Instead of running the commands above, which are in the format of setenv my_variable my_value, use the command format my_variable=my_value ; export my_variable.

For example, to set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, run the following command:

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH = mcr_root/v711/runtime/maci64:mcr_root/ ... 

If you set your environment variables, you may still receive the following message when you run your application:

imac-joe-user:~ joeuser$ /Users/joeuser/Documents/MATLAB/Dip/Dip ; exit; 
dyld: Library not loaded: @loader_path/libmwmclmcrrt.7.11.dylib 
Referenced from: /Users/joeuser/Documents/MATLAB/Dip/Dip 
Reason: image not found 
Trace/BPT trap 
logout

You may have set your environment variables initially, but they were not set up as persistent variables. Do the following:

1. In your root directory, open a file such as .bashrc or .profile file in your log-in shell.

2. In either of these types of log-in shell files, add commands to set your environment variables so that they persist. For example, to set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH or XAPPLRESDIR in this manner, you enter the following in your file:

   # Setting PATH for MCR
   
   DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/joeuser/Desktop/mcr/v711/runtime/maci64:/Users/joeuser/Desktop/mcr/v711/sys/os/maci64:/Users/joeuser/Desktop/mcr//v711/bin/maci64:/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/JavaVM:/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Libraries 
   export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
   
   XAPPLRESDIR=/Users/joeuser/Desktop/mcr/v711/X11/app-defaults 
   export XAPPLRESDIR
   
   ?
