BytesAvailableFcn is being disabled

ted-hou commented 8 years ago

This seems to occur if serial messages are sent while MATLAB is busy/experiencing micro-freezes.

[x] Tried increasing BytesAvailableFcnCount and InputBufferSize, didn't work. Does not seem to be related with buffer overflow.
[x] More stuff to try from http://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2016a/matlab/serial-port-devices.html

Potential fix implemented in https://github.com/ted-hou/mouse-behavior-arduino/commit/a37a1824e5c1792d8001687ae95a83ba3bfa6a6f

Serial messages will be read line-by-line (fgetl) instead of char-by-char (fread in a for loop). Seemed to fix it on my laptop.
