MATLAB code does not run / fails silently

[CharFox1]

Environment:
Windows 10
Julia 1.6.2
MATLAB 2022a academic

I have been unable to run any code in julia that uses matlab successfully. Running the following code will open the matlab command window if it is not already but does nothing else. Furthermore, the print at the end does not show in the terminal or in matlab.

using MATLAB

mat"1+1"

println("done")

I tried running matlab -batch "comserver('register')" since I am on Windows but this results in a long error (I can include if needed) that always starts with com.mathworks.util.ShutdownRuntimeException: Java is shutting down. Really not sure what is going wrong or what I can do to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

Same issue as #200
Not sure how to debug this. It looks like Matlab 2022a changed the engine internally and somehow that doesn't cooperate well with the package..

Strange. Have you tried an older version already? I think I'll try that next

[musm]

Older versions should work, I'm not sure which is the latest version that works, but this library used to work with older version of MATLAB just fine.

[CharFox1]

Previous version (2021b) works as expected so far. I guess this should remain open since things aren't working with current version of MATLAB though.

Interesting, we should find a channel were to report the bug with MATLAB. It looks like they might have changed some internals that lead to the library failures on 2022b.
