Is there a particular reason you can't use csv?
(Not sure whether I'm meant - as I also suggested csv to Santosh)
But:
- It used to work, so there may be code existing that is broken now (e.g. I do
have such code, but at least for the moment it doesn't matter). Thus the
information may very well be of interest for the maintainer.
- csv is fine for a matrix (or a vector) or a data.frame. How about arrays,
lists, more than one variable?
I think the default file format changed to v7.3 (though I'm not sure whether
that is just for large variables).
Unfortunately -v switch of load (that used e.g. to allow reading of V4 files) is
gone, and I can't see anything to specify the .mat file format version.
The curious thing is that readMat does accept the file produced by Matlab 2008b.
If it is a matter of writeMat writing an old file format, I'd have expected that
rather load should still be able to read the writeMat generated file than
readMat being able to read Matlab's .mat file.

write.csv() in R
It seems that you can read csv in Matlab with this

I am looking for ways to use R and Matlab. Doing the data transformations
in
R and using the data in Matlab to analyze with some pre-defined scripts.
Any good ways to transfer the data into matlab in its most recent version?
I tried using R.matlab but the writeMat output is not readable by Matlab.
It used to work, but I didn't need it for quite a while (a year or so ago,
and with Matlab either 2007 or 2008a).
I just tried, and neither does it work for me.
You should notify the maintainer of R.matlab and include an example (code
and data, e.g. with dput).
I noticed that library (R.matlab) does not load the Rcompression package,
but also after library (Rcompression), the resulting file was not read by
Matlab.
I tried loading a saved data.frame in Matlab 2008b on an Win XP computer: it
doesn't find any variables inside the .mat file (and whos -file ...) doesn't
show a variable.
The other way round with a stupid little vector it worked.
An R session (with only the 2nd try, after library (Rcompression)) is
attached below.
I just need to output a data.frame and read it as is into matlab where I
can
do any needed transformations on the variables.
If you need to transfer the data right NOW, there's always csv.
