Abstract

Implement the currently missing features in the experimental Matlab interface.

Motivation

Describe the need for the work being done:

• For Ubuntu users, a prefix must be added to the command line to correctly load GLIBC into Matlab.
• There is no tutorial. Users could only learn about the toolbox by reading the code of the new samples. The readme.md for the toolbox is not intuitive for users to follow.
• Building documentation with Sphinx is currently not enabled for the new interface.
• Currently the only way to test the toolbox is running the test_examples.m script which does not cover all methods in all classes.
• Without automated installation there is no easy way to adding testing into the CI workflow.
• Building from source is currently the only way to have access to the new interface. A pkg installer for Mac OS users and msi installer for Windows users is needed for the official release.

Description

• For building documentations, it's sufficient (for now) to pin Sphinx version to 5.1.1 in our CI. This could be addressed in a quick PR.
