HELP "OUT OF MEMORY"

i execute a program in matlab... and it runs fine.... when i execute it for the second time it says

 "OUT OF MEMORY"

i typed

 "clear all"

and executed it still it says "out of memory"... but if i close matlab and execute it refreshly it will execute... what should i do to rectify this error

[Oliver Woodford]

Please provide more details about the program. Is it written in pure MATLAB or does it call external code such as a C library or a mex file?

[Elysi Cochin]

sorry, yes it calls MEX files.....

Also, try "clear classes". It is more verbose than "clear all", so you might get more informative messages, particularly if you have memory allocated by graphics objects.

It's a known problem unfortunately. See, for example,

Try not to allocate so much memory. Newer versions of MATLAB might also handle the problem better.

[Elysi Cochin]

sir i used clear classes, it worked for the first time... but now its not working, its showing...

 ??? Out of memory. Type HELP MEMORY for your options.

what should i do sir....

What messages does "clear classes" return?
