Debugging Code Started from Windows System Prompt
I have a number of MATLAB functions that run daily, started from a batch file called by the Windows Task Manager. The .bat file contains lines like this calling the MATLAB executable with the -r option:
H:
cd "\Documents\My MATLAB Files"
call "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2019a\bin\matlab.exe" -r processCrawl_quit
Also, I always begin these functions with dbstop if error so I can troubleshoot if something goes wrong. Today this has happened and one of these functions has stopped at a breakpoint and I need to debug it.
I use dbup and dbdown to navigate the function stack as the workspace selector in the editor is not available.
