Suppress specific messages in a report by creating and specifying a settings file. For example, the file lengthofline.m
includes several lines that use | instead of || as the OR
operator. By default, mlintrpt
flags these lines.

Create a settings file that suppresses the message flagging the use of | as the OR
operator.
On the Home tab, in the Environment section, click the Preferences button.
Select Code Analyzer in the left pane.
Under Default Settings, in the Aesthetics and Readability section, clear the message Use || instead of | as the OR operator in (scalar) conditional statements.
Enter mysettings.txt
as the file name and save it to your current folder.
Press the Cancel button to exit out of the preference panel without changing the active settings.
Run mlintrpt
on the example file using the custom settings file mysettings.txt
. The message Use || instead of | as the OR operator in (scalar) conditional statements is suppressed and is no longer visible in the report.
