DSP Builder 8.0 license problem with MATLAB 2007a

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use DSP builder 8.0 but I'm having problems with the license.:(

After setting the environment variable LM_LICENSE_FILE as F:\altera\80\quartus\license.dat(which is the dsp builder license), I typed "dos('lmutil lmdiag C4D5_512A') " in MATLAB Command Window, and it returned the following sentences:

lmutil - Copyright (c) 1989-2006 Macrovision Europe Ltd. and/or Macrovision Corporation. All Rights Reserved.

FLEXlm diagnostics on Fri 4/24/2009 16:07

-----------------------------------------------------

License file: C:\flexlm\license.dat

-----------------------------------------------------

No licenses for C4D5_512A in this license file

ans =

0

I think the MATLAB has recognized the license file, but doesn't think it is right. Here are the codes in the license file:

FEATURE C4D5_512A alterad 2037.12 01-dec-2037 uncounted B8B9912B9FDD

VENDOR_STRING=7fkcz2dzAE7VAszbjLTzXH

HOSTID=001aa0b93538 SIGN="104A 713D 79E4 B387 DBEF 5356

4AC5 E799 6256 36C3 AAF5 BEDB 6851 3CAA 8333 0AC2 B5F5 750B"

Can anyone help me? :( My email is smchao@sina.com if needed.

Thanks a lot!

    The command you're typing is saying that the license file is c:\flexlm\license.dat, so it appears to me that it's not picking up your LM_LICENSE_FILE variable. If you type getenv( 'LM_LICENSE_FILE') in matlab does it show you the result you expect?
