In a MATLAB® command, you can refer to any class by its
fully qualified name, which includes its package name. A fully qualified
name might be long, making commands and functions, such as constructors,
cumbersome to edit and to read. You can refer to classes by the class
name alone (without a package name) if you first import the fully
qualified name into MATLAB. The import
function
adds all classes that you import to a list called the import list.
You can see what classes are on that list by typing import
,
without any arguments.
For example, to eliminate the need to type System.
before
every command in the Access a Simple .NET Class example, type:
import System.* import System.DateTime.*
To create the object, type:
netDate = DateTime.Today;
To use a static method, type:
DaysInMonth(netDate.Year,netDate.Month)
