I've recently started using matlab. If started with the jvm, log files will be created in the home directory (a different one every time it starts up).
Opening log file: /home/max/java.log.4363
The number at the end is different every time. Is there anyway I can change the location of this file (say a temporary directory)?
I can see no such option in matlab -help.
I should mention that I am currently using matlab 2015, but the same occurs with other recent-ish versions.
