I am using matlab-emacs to debug a matlab script from inside of emacs with GUD. Everything seems to be working as expected except that I don't see any breakpoint indicators in the fringe.

This is important to me for two reasons:

  1. It is nice to easily see where all of the breakpoints are in the code. It makes it much easier to know what to expect when I "continue."
  2. It lets me toggle breakpoints on and off. When the breakpoint indicator is there, I can check for it in code, and know whether I should toggle the breakpoint on or off.

Is there a way to get breakpoint indicators for Matlab debugging?

Unless some thing has changed with newer versions of MatLab, short answer is you cannot (MaTLaB 2011b here). Eric Ludlam, maintainer of matlab-emacs, does say so here in the matlab-emacs mailing list. MatLab lost an undocumented API which allowed it to show icons for breakpoints with select versions of GUD.
