Matlab2024a crashes using plotIPDF for ODF

[MatejMachek]

Hi
when I try to plot inverse pole figure form ODF data using mtex-5.11.2 Matlab2024a crushes even if i used the code provided in documentation or using odf.mat provided with mtex download.

cs = crystalSymmetry('32');
mod1 = orientation.byEuler(90degree,40degree,110degree,'ZYZ',cs);
mod2 = orientation.byEuler(50degree,30degree,-30degree,'ZYZ',cs);

odf = 0.2*unimodalODF(mod1) ...

• 0.3*unimodalODF(mod2) ...
• 0.5fibreODF(Miller(0,0,1,cs),vector3d(1,0,0),'halfwidth',10degree)

plotIPDF(odf,[xvector,zvector])

It says Illegal instruction detected.

Using mtex-5.11.2 in Matlab2024a on Windows 10 Pro

Matlab also crashes when trying to use functions: norm, calcMIndex, calcComponents and plotPDF for ODFs and calcDensity for EBSD

Thanks

Hi Matej,

could you simply try to reinstall MTEX? Sometimes windows has problems to correctly extract the zip archive.
The crash appears to happen in a precompiled binary. You can trigger this by running check_mex
If check_mex crashes this somehow indicates that have a very special system. Is this the case?

You can always try to compile the binaries on your own. But this is some additional effort.
