Using ROS 1 message generated by rosgemmsg: calling rosmsg or rosmessage before addpath breaks later calls?

I was able to create a custom message using rosgenmsg (Matlab 2020a). While testing I discovered something a bit odd from my perspective. If I try to create a message using rosgenmsg before modifying the path with addpath, the creation fails. This is what I would expect. Then I add the path for this custom message and still can't create it. See below:
>> rosmsg('show', 'crtk_msgs/operating_state')
Could not find definition of message type crtk_msgs/operating_state. Check the spelling of the type, or use
"rosmsg list" to retrieve a list of available message types.
>> addpath('/home/anton/catkin_ws/src/crtk/matlab_gen/msggen')
>> rosmsg('show', 'crtk_msgs/operating_state')
Could not find definition of message type crtk_msgs/operating_state. Check the spelling of the type, or use
"rosmsg list" to retrieve a list of available message types.
If I then quit Matlab and add the path before trying to create the message, everything is fine.
>> addpath('/home/anton/catkin_ws/src/crtk/matlab_gen/msggen')
>> rosmsg('show', 'crtk_msgs/operating_state')
std_msgs/Header Header
char State
logical IsHomed
logical IsBusy
So it seems there a cache maintained somewhere with a list of existing message types. Is that true and if so, how can I force a re-hash after I add paths to custom messages?

Hi,
You might have to run the below two commands after adding the path, to refresh all message class definitions which in turn requires clearing the workspace.
clear classes
rehash toolboxcache
By doing this you would not need to restart matlab.
For more information refer to the following document
Hope this helps!
