Hi ,
I'm trying to use determineRootFolder but Im getting an error: [Excel_File_Name,templatePath,outputFilePath] = determineRootFolder({Excel_File_Name,templatePath,outputFilePath},{'New Volume','New Volume','New Volume'});
How can I use determineRootFolder properly?
Thanks, Bahar

determineRootFolder appears to be Java, not MATLAB

https://github.com/vshaxe/vscode-checkstyle/blob/master/src/Main.hx or http://www.massapi.com/class/po/PortletRequest.html have java implementations, which appear to do different things, and which do not appear to have the same function signature as you are using.
I do not find a MATLAB function by that name.

If you want the name of the current folder
>> folderName = pwd;
If you want the name of the file containing the MATLAB script/function itself:
>> folderName = fileparts(mfilename('fullpath'));
