Maybe there is something I've missed, but I don't think there should be any conflict between the 'get' and 'display' functions in MATPOWER and any of the many other functions in Matlab with the same names. These are actually methods defined for specific classes. Type 'help get' or 'help display' in Matlab and you will see that there are many built-in classes that have 'get' or 'display' methods.
If you are seeing a conflict, it is probably because you explicitly added the matpower/@opf_model sub-folder to your Matlab path, which you should not do. Only the paths listed in Step 3 of Section 2.2 of the manual should be included. -- Ray Zimmerman Senior Research Associate 419A Warren Hall, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853 phone: (607) 255-9645 On Sep 30, 2012, at 3:00 PM, Evangelos Galinas <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello dear Matpower Community, > > I would like to make a small suggestion/enquiry for MatPower 4.1 I've been > using. > > It seems like Matpower is creating two new functions called get and display > which unfortunately share the same name with the built-in matlab functions > that are getting commonly used during GUI programming.
