Path dependencies in Distributed matlab

Hi All,

Has anybody used path dependencies in distributed matlab ?
Some how the following code doesn't seem to work:

j = createJob(jm,'FileDependencies',{'mymfile.m',pwd},'PathDependencies',...
{'mytoolbox/'});

Regards,
SOmesh

Hi Somesh,

Make sure the PathDependencies are absolute paths that each
worker has access to. These are essentially paths that will
get added to the path of each worker.

If you are trying to make all the files within the local
'mytoolbox' directory available to all the workers, then you
should specify that as FileDependencies. These get zipped up
and sent over the network to the workers.

Hi Jiro,
Thanks for the help.

Giving absolute path solved the problem. Thanks :-)
