Hi, we're investigating transitioning our company from matlab to python. We
found OMPC as a MATLAB m-file-to Python translator, but we're encountering a
problem using the translated code to import MATLAB data structures into Python.
For example, when we save data within MATLAB this way:
x.a = 5;
x.b = 6;
save -v6 test x
this saves data in test.mat, with MATLAB version 6 compatibility (OMPC says
it's not compatible with the latest versions of MATLAB). The code to read in
data in MATLAB is just
load test
and when we run it through OMPC we get
load(mstring('test.mat'))
but when we run it we get the error message
File "ompclib\ompclib_numpy.py", line 1496, in load
KeyError: "[('a', '|O4'), ('b', '|O4')]"
Reading in simpler data (up to arrays) does not have this problem.
To get other people in the company to transition, we were hoping that the
translation process could be done in one step or on the fly. We could read in
MATLAB data using I/O functions imported from scipy, but then the transition
isn't seamless any more.
Is there a simple fix to using OMPC? Or a similar alternative that would work
better?
Thanks
