Installation

Please note that some of our servers will be down from February 1 till February 3, 2019. It will NOT be possible to install MPT during that time. We apologize for the inconvenience.

clear classes mpt_init

clear classes mpt_init

If there was a change in the global option settings, or any modification in the class files, it is recommended to clear all variables (and update class files) by typing

clear all

and initialize MPT3 to default values by

mpt_init

1. Download latest versions of following packages (pick the correct download link for your operating system; prefer stable versions):

@]

Manual installation without tbxmanager

If you for any reason cannot use tbxmanager, you can install MPT3 and all required dependencies manually:

1. Download latest versions of following packages (pick the correct download link for your operating system):
   • mpt
   • mptdoc
   • cddmex
   • fourier
   • glpkmex
   • hysdel
   • lcp
   • sedumi
   • espresso
2. Download the latest YALMIP release
3. Unpack all downloaded archives to a directory (each archive will automatically create its own subdirectory)
4. Set Matlab path to all subdirectories of the main directory created in the previous step
5. Save your Matlab path for later use

3. Install tbxmanager, our new mechanism for installing and updating free Matlab toolboxes (make sure to properly configure Matlab if you are behind a proxy server):

6. Run mpt_init to initialize default settings for MPT3.

from time to time to update your MPT3 installation to the latest development version.

Removal

If you don't require MPT anymore, you can save some disk space by uninstalling it:

tbxmanager uninstall mpt mptdoc cddmex fourier glpkmex hysdel lcp yalmip sedumi espresso

tbxmanager install mpt mptdoc cddmex fourier glpkmex hysdel lcp yalmip sedumi espresso

1. Remove any previous installations of MPT2 and YALMIP from your path. If you do not have MPT2 or YALMIP installed, you can skip this step.

rmpath(genpath(fileparts(which('mpt_init')))) rmpath(genpath(fileparts(which('yalmipdemo'))))

2. Create a directory where MPT3 and accompanying toolboxes will be installed to. Call the directory tbxmanager for instance.

mkdir('tbxmanager')
cd tbxmanager

3. Install tbxmanager, our new mechanism for installing and updating free Matlab toolboxes:

4. Install MPT3 and required toolboxes

5. The path to all toolboxes can be set by issuing

2. Go to that directory in Matlab.

tbxmanager install mpt mptdoc cddmex fourier glpkmex hysdel lcp yalmip sedumi

Download and run the installation script install_mpt3.m in Matlab. The script basically executes the steps below and asks for installation directories.

Download and run the installation script install_mpt3.m in Matlab.

Automatic installation

Download and run the installation script install_mpt3.m in Matlab.

Manual installation

3. Go to that directory in Matlab.

4. Remove any previous installations of MPT2 and YALMIP from your path. If you do not have installed MPT2 or YALMIP, you can skip this step.

5. Install tbxmanager, our new mechanism for installing and updating free Matlab toolboxes:

6. Install MPT3 and required toolboxes

tbxmanager install mpt mptdoc cddmex fourier glpkmex hysdel lcp yalmip

7. The path to all toolboxes can be set by issuing

8. Run mpt_init to initialize default settings for MPT3.

from time to time to update your MPT3 installation to the latest development version.

Prerequisites

MATLAB R2011a or later.

Quick Installation

Open Matlab R2011a or newer and run the installation script attachment:install_mpt3.m The file basically executes the installation instructions below.

Installation instructions

1. Open Matlab R2011a or newer and issue the following commands at the Matlab prompt.
2. Create a directory where MPT3 and accompanying toolboxes will be installed to. Call the directory tbxmanager for instance.

mkdir('tbxmanager')

1. Go to that directory in Matlab.

cd tbxmanager

1. Remove any previous installations of MPT2 and YALMIP from your path. If you do not have installed MPT2 or YALMIP, you can skip this step.

rmpath(genpath(fileparts(which('mpt_init'))))
rmpath(genpath(fileparts(which('yalmipdemo'))))

1. Install tbxmanager, our new mechanism for installing and updating free Matlab toolboxes:

urlwrite('http://www.tbxmanager.com/tbxmanager.m', 'tbxmanager.m');
tbxmanager
savepath

1. Install MPT3 and required toolboxes

tbxmanager install mpt mptdoc cddmex fourier glpkmex hysdel lcp sedumi yalmip

1. The path to all toolboxes can be set by issuing

tbxmanager restorepath

It is recommended to store this command in the initialization file @startup.m@ because the path to all toolboxes maintained through tbxmanager is set automatically everytime you start Matlab. Edit startup.m and store the above line in there. If there is no file @startup.m@, you can create one in the tbxmanager directory.

1. Run mpt_init to initialize default settings for MPT3.

mpt_init

Updating

To update MPT3 and other installed toolboxes to their latest stable versions, run

tbxmanager update

Living on the bleeding edge

If you want to help us with testing development versions of MPT3, subscribe to the unstable repository:

tbxmanager source add http://www.tbxmanager.com/package/unstable.xml/mpt

Then run

tbxmanager selfupdate
tbxmanager update

from time to time to update your MPT3 installation to the latest development version.
