I'm surprised that this line even runs at all in MATLAB because it's
actually Java :) You may need to create a new instance of your Datastore
using MATLAB's javaObject() method. For example, here is a snippet from our
lab's own MATLAB code of how I create a Datastore from a DataManager in
Micro-Manager 2.0beta:

DataManager = javaObject('org.micromanager.data.internal.DefaultDataManager'
);
Datastore = DataManager.loadData(dataDirectory, OPEN_AS_VIRTUAL);

Alternatively, if this doesn't work, try the following (I have not tested
it). Note that StartMMStudio.m is located inside the Micro-Manager
installation directory and should be your primary interface between MATLAB
and Micro-Manager:

gui = StartMMStudio('C:\Program Files\Micro-Manager-2.0beta\');
mmc = gui.getCore;
acq = gui.getAcquisitionEngine;

datastore = gui.displays().getCurrentWindow().getDatastore();

Cheers,
Kyle
