Summary0000550: Error in export as matlab script
DescriptionWhen you export a vector from result analysis feature to a matlab script and then import it in matlab an error is thrown:

Error: File: exportError.m Line: 1 Column: 26
The input character is not valid in MATLAB statements or expressions.

The content of exportError.m is:

measured_RTT.description=""
measured_RTT.X=[
0.112496266666;
0.172247733332;

...

589.240920444581;
589.486536444581;
]

measured_RTT.Y=[
0.059789066666;
0.0597514666660000013;

...

0.239904000000000006;
0.245616000000000001;
]


The point is Matlab uses single quotes for strings instead of double quotes:

measured_RTT.description="" must be measured_RTT.description=''

It seems the problem is on src/scave/export.cc:

string MatlabStructExport::quoteString(const string &str)
{
    string result;
    result.push_back('"'); // <-- here
    for (string::const_iterator it = str.begin(); it != str.end(); ++it)
    {
        if (*it == '\\' || *it == '\"')
            result.push_back('\\');
        result.push_back(*it);
    }
    result.push_back('"'); // <-- and here

    return result;
}

Fixed the quotation mark. changed from " to '. Also escaping was wrong ' is quoted as '' not as \'

After some investigation, we have removed the matlab script output from the IDE, as it was broken.

CSV files can be used to import data to matlab.
