Documentation for Functions tigermif and tigerp Removed
The reference pages for following functions, which themselves were removed in R2007b,
have been removed from the Mapping Toolbox User's Guide:
• tigerp — Read TIGER p and pa thinned boundary files (ArcInfo format)
• tigermif — Read the TIGER MIF thinned boundary file (MapInfo format)
Compatibility Considerations
See the R2007b release note “Functions tigermif and tigerp Are Obsolete and Error if
Used” on page 16-13 for alternatives to tigermif and tigerp.
Removed Syntaxes that Returned Error Messages in Optional Argument
In earlier versions, the following Mapping Toolbox functions supported syntaxes that
included an optional output argument called msg. If this output argument was included
in a call to one of these functions, and certain error conditions were encountered while
executing the function, then instead of issuing an error, the function would return the
corresponding error message in msg. The following functions are affected:
• axesm
• defaultm
• displaym
• gcm
• handlem
• lightm
• linem
• maps
• meshm
• namem
• patchesm
• roundn
• surfacem
• surflsrm
• textm
