Hey,

I try to switch the python engine version in one single class. I added here a small example. Based on the used matlab version I want do add matlab.engine version dynamically. I tested many ways - importlib.reload(<matlabVersion>) is not working. What is the best way

import sys
import re
import importlib
matlab2017a ="d:\CodeArea\ModelQualityInterface\core\Tools\MatlabSimulink\matlab17aPy35\Lib\site-packages"
matlab2016b ="d:\CodeArea\ModelQualityInterface\core\Tools\MatlabSimulink\matlab16bPy35\Lib\site-packages"
sys.path.append(matlab2016b)
import matlab.engine
print(matlab.__file__)
print(matlab.engine.find_matlab())
def __RemoveMatlabEngineFromSysPath__(deliveredLibs):
    for p in sys.path:
        if p.find(deliveredLibs) != -1:
            sys.path.remove(p)
            
        
        
__RemoveMatlabEngineFromSysPath__(matlab2016b)
sys.path.append(matlab2017a)
matlab = importlib.reload(matlab.engine)
print(matlab.engine.__file__)
print(matlab.engine.find_matlab())      
Output:

Hi,

It seems like you are encountering issues when trying to dynamically switch between different versions of the MATLAB engine in Python within a single class. The error you are facing is related to the initialization of the MATLAB process session.To dynamically switch between different versions of the MATLAB engine in Python, you can follow these steps:

1. Use importlib.reload() Correctly:

When reloading a module, you should reload the top-level module, not a specific attribute like matlab.engine.
Instead of "matlab = importlib.reload(matlab.engine)", you should use "matlab = importlib.reload(matlab)".

2. Properly Manage Module Paths:

Ensure that you are correctly managing the module paths when switching between different versions of the MATLAB engine.
Remove the previous MATLAB engine path from "sys.path" before adding the new one.

Hope it helps.
