Re: javaaddpath clears workspace variables

This is a summary of the workarounds.

(1) To just get rid of the issue, edit the following file to add the classpath there. (Remember to replace the MATLAB version in the path.)

"C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2011a\toolbox\local\classpath.txt"

(2) If unfortunately this happens in a large code base and that debugging is not possible (due to the side effect that "clear java", "clear all" also clears all breakpoints), then do this in a command line:

dbstop in clear

This will give a warning, which is okay. This command line allows a troubleshooter to identify the lines of culprits by executing the offending package code.
