9 months ago I added a warning to tell the user to update Matlab in case of segfault, as you suggested. I also tested with older versions of Julia to see if the issue could have come from that side. But everything works, so I think it really is a matter of Matlab updates.

9 months ago @musm Have you tried to do an update to Matlab, just in case?

9 months ago @musm Interesting, I will boot on my Windows partition and try. All my tests were done on Linux.

9 months ago Ok it just crashes on Windows for me too... Tested with R2023b and R2023a. R2021b works fine.

9 months ago Good to know. Yes, AFAIK this issue has been isolated to Windows and possibly MacOS

9 months ago I vaguely remember having the issue on Linux also. But I might remember wrong 😅 Actually, I found a comment mentioning the problem on Linux: https://github.com/JuliaInterop/MATLAB.jl/issues/200#issuecomment-1290671392. Mathworks must have changed something in their build on Linux through an update that fixed the issue. But they didn't change it on Windows.
Then I propose to change the original warning to specify that the problem appears under Windows/MacOS. Maybe I will try to get access to a Mac computer through a colleague to test it there.

4 months ago I am still seeing the segfault with matlab update R2023b Update 6 and 7. And julia 1.9 and 1.10.

julia> mat"version"
"9.11.0.2358333 (R2021b) Update 7"It works on my R2023b but I haven't applied any update (so it is basically Update 0). Now I know I should not update it 😅
julia> mat"version"
"23.2.0.2365128 (R2023b)"So the problem is back on Linux but seems to be gone on macOS according to https://github.com/JuliaInterop/MATLAB.jl/issues/223. Maybe we could change the warning message in the readme to a more general one.
I noticed today that
MATLAB.jlworks perfectly with the new version of MATLAB R2023b.By curiosity I also checked the former 'problematic' versions (R2023a, R2022b, R2022a) and they all work on my computer. I suspect some update of internals on the MATLAB side: all three versions have received updates in July/August of this year (as can be seen here).
Here is what I manage to get in the REPL:
So now I don't know what is preferred: removing completely the warning message in README.md, or updating it to inform everything is working as normal now and keeping it for some time :slightly_smiling_face:
p.s: this should close issues #200 and #201 :tada:
