[. . . ] In this release, the version numbers specify which version of the . NET Framework to use. Note also that the interpretation of version number with MATLAB Builder for . NET is different from COM Builder. In COM Builder, the version number specifies the version of the component being created. 20 Version 2. 1 (R2006b) MATLAB® BuilderTM NE Software Additional Support for Microsoft Visual Studio . NET Users MWArray. dll Added to Reference Tab MATLAB Builder for . NET now adds the MWArray. dll containing the data conversion classes to the list of . NET components accessible from the Add Reference tab in Microsoft Visual Studio . NET. Sample Applications on Visual Studio . NET 2005 The set of sample applications in matlabroot\toolbox\dotnetbuilder\Examples now includes applications for Visual Studio . NET 2005, as well as for Visual Studio . NET 2003. Known Issues The following issue is known and a patch to fix the problem is available at the linked bug report. Data Returned by ToArray Referencing Sparse Format May Be Corrupt The data returned by calling ToArray on a MWNumericArray or MWLogicalArray object that references a MATLAB array stored in sparse format may be incorrect or corrupted.
