License
To be able to use the MATLAB version of Simian GUI a license file for Simian GUI must be available in a location where it can be found.
The location of the license file is either:
- On a floating license server, which can be specified by setting the
MONKEYPROOF_FLOATING_LICENSE_SERVER
environment variable to the address and port (separated by a colon) of the license server. - In a custom folder, specified by setting the
MONKEYPROOF_LICENSE_FILE_FOLDER
environment variable. - The default folder, which can be found by running
fullfile(settings().matlab.addons.InstallationFolder.ActiveValue, 'Licenses')
on the MATLAB command line.
Depending on your license type, it may be necessary to retrieve and/or activate the license the first time the application is started. In that case the license dialog appears, which allows you to specify a product key or activate the license.
