In coming versions of YALMIP, the operators > and < will most likely not be allowed in constraints. Hence, to prepare, you should replace occurrences of these operators with <= and >=.

The reason for this change is that strict operators cause confusion. The notion of a strict inequality has little support in practice, as almost all solvers approach the optimal solution from infeasibility, and thus easily ends up with non-strict feasibility, or even slight infeasibility. Along the same lines, a strict inequality has little support in theory, since a problem containing a strict inequality has no minimizer (only infinimizer). YALMIP has never treated strict and non-strict inequalities differently, but supported strict inequalities as a notational convenience.

If you need strictly feasible solutions, you should manually add a suitable margin to your non-strict constraint.

The next version of YALMIP will issue warnings when strict inequalities are encountered.

Update: YALMIP now warns when you use strict inequalities. This can be turned off by warning('off','YALMIP:strict'), although you of course should fix your model to begin with.

Unfortunately, SeDuMi has a bug which turns off all warnings, so the warning will typically not be shown by YALMIP once you have run SeDuMi.
