problem loading a .mat file stored in a package

If I create a package and store some test data in a .mat file in that package folder and then import the whole package why can't I just do load filename.mat? It can't seem to find the file. The folder above the package is definitely on the path.

Could you clarify what you mean by "package" in this situation? For example is this a question about the MATLAB Compiler and an "additional file" ?

I had the same problem. I don't know if this is the correct way, but I used

load +mypackage/filename.mat

like this.
