TbTb does not work in MATLAB 2012b

[spitschan]

I recently ran into an issue of trying to set up TbTb on a computer running OS X 10.6.8 with MATLAB 2012b, the last supported version for that OS. (I'll spare you the details for why I found myself in that situation.)

Turns out that there are two modern features of inputParser which didn't exist or were different back then:

• Partial matching, i.e. the field PartialMatching as one sets up the parser object;
• The method addParameter was called addParamValue.

I've created a branch on my ToolboxToolbox fork called matlab2012b whose only function is to make TbTb work on that old MATLAB version. It's here: https://github.com/spitschan/ToolboxToolbox/tree/matlab2012b

Not sure if there's a point in adding this branch to the official ToolboxToolbox repo on the Toolbox.

I think 2012b is old enough that we don't want to add any official support for it. But we can try to keep in mind that you have a fix if it ever comes up again. (In general, I have adopted the view that supporting Matlab 2 years back is about right.)
