matlabToolboxCheck
MATLAB function to check whether native toolboxes have licenses available and are installed.
Developers can integrate this function into their scripts to quickly verify that users have the required toolboxes to run their scripts and if not, warn users.
General users can also use this to quickly get a table of all available MATLAB features or toolboxes along with both their program and human-readable (marketing) names.
=== Usage ===
Several ways to use the function indicated below. All Name-Value pair input arguments described within the function. Normal options indicated below.
% Run with defaults (e.g. toolboxList and secondaryToolboxList options).
[outputTable] = matlabToolboxCheck();
% Check for specific toolboxes requested by user.
[outputTable] = matlabToolboxCheck('toolboxList',{'distrib_computing_toolbox','image_toolbox'},'secondaryToolboxList',{});
% [Alternative] Check for specific toolboxes requested by user.
[outputTable] = matlabToolboxCheck('toolboxList',{'Parallel Computing Toolbox','Image Processing Toolbox'},'secondaryToolboxList',{});
% Run giving out a table of all MATLAB toolboxes/features along with license availability and install status.
[outputTable] = matlabToolboxCheck('dispType','all');
% Set `displayOutput` to 0 to silently check toolboxes without outputting information to command line.
[outputTable] = matlabToolboxCheck('dispType','all','dispOutput',0);
