Rename function Matlab 2018b

Is there a rename function for Matlab 2018b? I have an old code line that won't run under this version of Matlab; The error message am getting is: Undefined function 'rename' for input arguments of type 'double'.

Error in adcp2ep (line 580)

Line 580:

%RENAME A FEW

pulse = G.transmit_pulse_length;

rename(pulse,'transmit_pulse_length_cm');

Which other function may I use to replace the rename function??

Cheers,

Felipe

There are three rename functions in the online documentation:

rename (FTP server files)

rename (Simulink)

rename (SimBiology)

So the function depends on the context and the arguments.

Choose one.

There are also a number of toolboxes on the file exchange with a rename() function that your updated Matlab version may be missing. Just to list a few

• https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/46827-nicolasayotte-matlabgdsphotonicstoolbox
• https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/34500-face-recognition-using-l1-norm-minimization
• https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/65613-aircraft-control-toolbox

I think Star Strider's comment should be an answer.
