FindMatlab.cmake does not find matlab 2018a

[carmagnole]

I am trying to build nix-mx on MacOSX for MATLAB 2018a. Got the error message that the computing environment is not found, and I need to install matlab

dear @carmagnole the issue is most likely related to lines

nix-mx/cmake/FindMATLAB.cmake

Line 43 in 044c39e

FOREACH(MATVER "9.3" "9.2" "9.1" "8.6" "8.5" "8.4" "8.3" "8.2" "8.1" "8" "7.14" "7.12" "7.11" "7.10" "7.9" "7.8" "7.7" "7.6" "7.5" "7.4")

and

nix-mx/cmake/FindMATLAB.cmake

Line 129 in 044c39e

FOREACH(MATVER "R2017b" "R2017a" "R2016b" "R2016a" "R2015b" "R2015a" "R2014b" "R2014a" "R2013b" "R2013a" "R2012b" "R2012a" "R2011b" "R2011a" "R2010b" "R2010a" "R2009b" "R2009a" "R2008b")

.
As a quick fix please add "9.4" to the front of the list in line 43 and "R2018a" in line 129. This should enable cmake to find it.

I do not have a Matlab 2018a version available right now so I cannot test. Let us know if this works, there are any other issues and if the tests pass :)

Thank you for posting this! This issue comes up again with Matlab 2019a and is fixed by adding the suggested lines 43 and 129 - it might be useful to add to the instructions page?
