Hello everyone,
The following is a function of my entire code that is desined to plot several circles on an axis inside the interface "GUI" i am designing. I added the variables that normaly are defined by different functions so the code can be run.
I get the error Index exceeds matrix dimension when running this function but when i add an pause or a big while loop and do exactly the same, the error Index exceeds matrix dimension dos NOT appear and if i remove the pause/whileloop after the code has run one time the error doesnt apear anymore until i restarted matlab and i can't figure out why this happens. I added comments inside the code where the error apears.

The things i have looked at are:
  • hyperthreading
  • Looping between functions
  • Double defined variables
  • I also tryed adding a whileloop to the function the effect that this had was that the error Index exceeds matrix dimensions appeared only one out of ten times.
But none of these options fixed the problem so im hoping that someone has had similar problems and find out how to fix it.
The variables that are changed that make this function crash:
  • handles.num
  • Core
Im using matlab version R2011b on an Fujitsu i5 core with windows 7 operating system.

Nick

I will do my best on the tags this is the first post i ever made.
The error happens in the forloop that starts in line 233.
I added the while loop at line 242 and i added the while loop as an alternative for the pause to slow the function down
And hyperthreading "Hyper-Threading technology" is when multiple tasks are running at once I thought matlab was running multiple functions at the same time. I tryed disabling it using the function: maxNumCompThreads(1). And i also tryed the other things that are mentioned in: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/1848-turn-off-hyperthreading-when-i-am-using-matlab
To explain (double defined variables) my code has over 60 functions and more than 40 handles that are used at different places. I have looked if i used the handles that i am using in this code were overwritten in a different function. Or by matlab.
And "Looping between functions" several of the functions i made are called by different functions for updates on the handles or variabels. I looked here if somewere the functions enterd a endles loop that caused the error.

@Nick: Thanks for the clarifications. I really appreciate this.
"Hyper-threading" means, that the operating system can address two logical cores for one physical core. While hyper-threading can be triggered in the BIOS/EFI-setup only, "multi-threading" can be controlled for each program, e.g. by the mentioned maxNumCompThread.

Just a note: Replace:
cell2mat(value(ii,3))
by the nicer and faster:
value{ii,3}
But to your problem: A PAUSE statement starts the evaluation of callbacks. Does the problem appear inside a callback, and if so, what are the Interruptible and BusyAction properties of the calling GUI object?

The problem appears after i called the handle from an edit box. In line 223 this is commented out: handles.num = str2double(get(handles.Wals1Tag,'string')); The value of Wals1Tag is in average between 0 and 10. But somthimes when the value is '0' the error occures.
The Interruptible value = on; and The BusyAction = queue;
