<p>Problem: When I try to run a WFDB command in MATLAB I get the following error:
</p>

<pre>
>> r = rdsamp('mitdb/100', 'maxt', ':10');
Undefined variable "LoadWFDBJava" or class "LoadWFDBJava.load".

Error in rdsamp (line 74)
LoadWFDBJava.load;
</pre>

<p>Solution:

You did not complete the installation of the toolbox. To complete installation follow these steps (note: the steps assume a Windows OS and a user name "wfdbtest";  similar steps for your Operating Systems can be found when you run the install script wfdb_install):
</p>
<ol>
<li> Copy the file from 
  <br> C:\Users\wfdbtest\.wfdb-swig-matlab\0.0.3\librarypath.txt 
  <br> to 
 <br>C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012a\toolbox\local\librarypath.txt
  <br>(or to your MATLAB startup directory for a local installation). You can copy the files from within the MATLAB prompt by using the following command:
<pre>
  copyfile('C:\Users\wfdbtest\.wfdb-swig-matlab\0.0.3\librarypath.txt','C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012a\toolbox\local\librarypath.txt','f')
</pre>
</li>
<li> Copy the file from 
   <br>C:\Users\wfdbtest\.wfdb-swig-matlab\0.0.3\classpath.txt 
  <br>to 
  <br>C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012a\toolbox\local\classpath.txt
  <br>(or to your MATLAB startup directory for a local installation). You can copy the files from within the MATLAB prompt by using the following command:
<pre>
  copyfile('C:\Users\wfdbtest\.wfdb-swig-matlab\0.0.3\classpath.txt','C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012a\toolbox\local\classpath.txt','f')
