taskStartup
User-defined options to run on worker when task starts
Syntax
taskStartup(task)
Arguments
task The task being evaluated by the worker.
Description
taskStartup(task) runs automatically on a worker each time the worker evaluates
a task for a particular job. You do not call this function from the client session, nor
explicitly as part of a task function.
You add MATLAB code to the taskStartup.m file to define task initialization on the
worker. The worker looks for taskStartup.m in the following order, executing the one it
finds first:
1
Included in the job’s AttachedFiles property.
2
In a folder included in the job’s AdditionalPaths property.
3
In the worker’s MATLAB installation at the location
matlabroot/toolbox/distcomp/user/taskStartup.m
To create a version of taskStartup.m for AttachedFiles or AdditionalPaths, copy
the provided file and modify it as required. For further details on taskStartup and its
implementation, see the text in the installed taskStartup.m file.
