Changes to Compiler Support

Compaq Visual Fortran version 6.1 is supported in Version 7.3 (R2006b) but will not be

supported in a future version of MATLAB.

Compatibility Considerations

To ensure continued support for building your Fortran programs, consider upgrading

to another supported compiler. For an up-to-date list of supported compilers, see the

Supported and Compatible Compilers Web page.

Actxcontrol Command Now Validates ProgID

Attempting to insert a COM server into a MATLAB figure can result in unpredictable

behaviors. To prevent this condition, the actxcontrol command now checks the ProgID

by looking at the registry's HKR/CLSID/Control keyword and throws an error if the

ProgID does not belong to a Microsoft ActiveX control.

Compatibility Considerations

Before the validation check was added, some server ProgIDs worked with

actxcontrol , probably because there are cases where Microsoft software points

the server GUID to a control GUID underneath. An example of a ProgID that

might not work with actxcontrol is the Windows Media

Player server ProgID

Mediaplayer.mediaplayer.1. Therefore, depending on how Microsoft software

registers the control, the following command might now return an error:

h = actxcontrol('Mediaplayer.mediaplayer.1'); % Returns an error

The correct ProgID to use for Mediaplayer is the ActiveX control ProgID:

h = actxcontrol('WMPlayer.OCX.7'); % Use control ProgID

Note that methods and properties to open and play files are different when using the

control ProgID.

You can disable the validation check with the following command:

feature('COM_ActxProgidCheck',0)

Or reenable it with:

1 2 ... 623 624 625 626 627 628 629 630 631 632 633 ... 715 716
