The Virtual Reality Toolbox product is now supported on the Mac OS® X platform.
The overall rendering of virtual worlds for the Virtual Reality Toolbox interface is improved.
Microsoft® Internet Explorer® 6.0 might incorrectly interpret system Java™ library paths, preventing Virtual Reality Toolbox components (such as the Virtual Reality Toolbox Viewer) from running. Netscape Navigator® users do not experience this problem.
If you are using Internet Explorer 6.0, you should manually edit the Java library path for Internet Explorer 6.0. Alternatively, you can also use Internet Explorer 5.5 with Virtual Reality Toolbox software.
Editing the Java Library Path
To manually edit the Java library path for Internet Explorer 6.0:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\JavaVM
A list of value names and their values appears.
Replace each instance of %systemroot% with the system root path. For example
C:\WINNT
The Virtual Reality Toolbox product requires the MATLAB product running Mac OS X 10.2.
To install the Virtual Reality Toolbox product on Mac OS X,
you must first install a patch available from MathWorks. To get the
patch, go to
ftp://ftp.mathworks.com/pub/tech-support/solutions/s33053.
Refer to this location for any updates. Refer to http://www.mathworks.com/support for
updated instructions. The instructions for this patch are below.
You should download this patch if you match one of these scenarios:
You want to install MATLAB Release 13 on a Mac OS X 10.2 system that does not currently have theMATLAB product installed.
You want to update an installation of the MATLAB product that was installed on a system with the Mac OS X product 10.1.x, but has subsequently been updated to the Mac OS X product 10.2.
You want to update an installation of the MATLAB product that is installed on a system with Mac OS X 10.1.x.
You already updated the MATLAB product installed on a system with Mac OS X 10.1.x, as in scenario III above, and have subsequently updated to Mac OS X 10.2.
Depending on which scenario you choose, please follow the directions below.
The first step is to download the MathWorks Jaguar® Updater disk image from ftp://ftp.mathworks.com/pub/tech-support/solutions/s33053. This file is named MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater.dmg. Place this file on your desktop. Double-click the file to start the Disk Copy utility, which will mount the disk image as a virtual disk named MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater. You will use this MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater virtual disk in the following installations.
Next, locate your scenario and follow the steps listed for that scenario.
Scenario I. You want to install MATLAB Release 13 on a Mac OS X 10.2 system that does not currently have the MATLAB product installed.
Insert the MATLAB Release 13 install CD titled CD 1 of 3 into your CD drive.
Wait a few moments for Mac OS X to mount the CD. When the MathWorks_R13_1 volume appears on your desktop, you can proceed.
Double-click on the Install for Mac OS X icon in the MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater virtual disk.
After the installer finishes, drag the MathWorks_R13_1 volume to the trash to eject the CD, and repeat steps 1 through 4 with CD 2 of 3 and CD 3 of 3.
Scenario II. You want to update an installation of the MATLAB product that was installed on a system with Mac OS X 10.1.x, but has subsequently been updated to Mac OS X 10.2.
Double-click on the XFree86_4.2.0.1-10.2 icon in the MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater virtual disk.
Follow the instructions presented by the XFree86 updater. Accept any default values presented.
Double-click on the MATLABR13_Jaguar_patch icon in the MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater virtual disk.
Follow the instructions presented by the MATLAB updater. When asked to choose the folder where the MATLAB product is installed click Next unless the MATLAB product is not installed the default location (/Applications/MATLAB6p5). If the MATLAB product is not installed in the default location, click the Choose... button and navigate to the folder where you installed the MATLAB product.
Scenario III. You want to update an installation of the MATLAB product that is installed on a system with Mac OS X 10.1.x.
Double-click on the MATLABR13_Jaguar_patch icon in the MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater virtual disk.
Follow the instructions presented by the MATLAB updater. When asked to choose the folder where the MATLAB product is installed click Next unless the MATLAB product is not installed the default location (/Applications/MATLAB6p5). If this is the case, then click the Choose... button and navigate to the folder where you installed the MATLAB product.
Scenario IV. You already updated the MATLAB product installed on a system with Mac OS X 10.1.x, as in scenario III above, and have subsequently updated to Mac OS X 10.2.
Double-click on the XFree86_4.2.0.1-10.2 icon in the MathWorks_Jaguar_Updater virtual disk.
Follow the instructions presented by the XFree86 updater. Accept any default values presented.
