Break points in no debugger in nodesktop mode

Hi there,

I'm currently connecting to a remote computer via an ssh tunnel. Recently I set an xserver tunnel to be able to do some plotting. However, I always start matlab with "matlab -nodesktop" because I usually only work in terminals, i.e., I do all my file editing with vim. The problem is that when I set a break point (dbstop ...) and I reach it, a matlab desktop is automatically opened. Is it possible to disable this feature? What is the reason for this behavior?

Regards,

Eduardo

You can change this in the preferences.

On MATLAB main window select the “Home” tab and click on Preferences.

In the Preferences window choose “Editor/Debugger” on the left pane to open up the “MATLAB Editor/Debugger Preferences”. You can then uncheck the option that says “Automatically open files when MATLAB reaches a breakpoint”.
