mtlb_strrep

Description

Matlab strrep and Scilab strsubst behave differently in some particular cases:

• With inputs which not character strings: Matlab strrep can be used with not character strings inputs but not Scilab strsubst.

The function mtlb_strrep(A,B,C) is used by mfile2sci to replace strrep(A,B,C) when it was not possible to know what were the inputs while porting Matlab code to Scilab. This function will determine the correct semantic at run time. If you want to have a more efficient code it is possible to replace mtlb_strrep calls:

• If A, B and C are character strings mtlb_strrep(A,B,C) may be replaced by strsubst(A,B,C)

Caution: mtlb_strrep has not to be used for hand coded functions.
