## **libSBML @PACKAGE_VERSION@ MATLAB interface** 

This archive contains standalone binaries for the libSBML MATLAB interface.  The interface files are ready to run; they require no compilation or additional steps beyond informing MATLAB about the path to the folder where you unpacked the archive.  Instructions for doing this are given below.  Binaries are provided for all supported operating systems in the same archive.

*Note*: It would be very useful for us to learn of people's experiences, both for situations where the binaries do not work as well as situations where they do work.  Please let us know by contacting us at <libsbml-team@googlegroups.com>.


### Installation instructions

1. Extract the archive somewhere on your local computer.

2. Start your copy of MATLAB and add the folder to your MATLAB path using [addPath](http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/addpath.html). 

3. Verify that everything works.  You can do this easily by changing into that folder within your running MATLAB environment, then issuing the command `TranslateSBML('test.xml')` in MATLAB.  If everything went as planned, the output of that command will be a MATLAB structure representing the toy test model.

4. Save the changes to your MATLAB path for future use.  To do this, you can use the [savepath](http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/savepath.html) command in MATLAB.

#### Alternative installation

1. Extract the archive somewhere on your local computer.

2. Start your copy of MATLAB, navigate to the extracted folder and run '**installSBML**'. This will add the path and verify that everything works (as above).
