I'm know that its a beginner question but after I'm install the Matlab Compiler Runtime how can i run the matlab compiler from DOS?
I have the directory C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime
Where is the compiler .exe or something like that?
Thanks
Make sure that you actually have the MATLAB compiler as well. The Compiler Runtime and the compiler are two entirely different programs.
From the help, The MATLAB Runtime is a standalone set of shared libraries that enables the execution of compiled MATLAB applications or components on computers that do not have MATLAB installed.
Once you've compiled the exe (on a computer with MATLAB), you will move the exe to a computer without MATLAB, which has the compiler runtime installed.

I'm encountering a serious problem while trying to deploy a Matlab program as a stand-alone for Windows.
My end users are employees in some corporation and have only access to static computers. While they can download, unpack and execute stuff, they don't have installation privileges, so they're unable to install the Matlab Compiler Runtime (MCR). Unfortunately, they need MCR in order to run my deployed/compiled Matlab program. The deploytool offers me the option to "include MCR in the package", but it doesn't really do that. Instead, it packages the MCR installer, which is useless in my case as described above.
So how can I create a stand-alone application that runs on Windows out of the box, even without MCR installed and without installing it first? There has to be a way to compile this all the way down to binary...
You can't run Matlab code standalone without having MATLAB or the MATLAB Compiler Runtime installed. But it is legal to distribute the MCR to the customers to make them able to use your programs.
Alternatively you can use the MATLAB Coder to convert your code to C/C++, which is not completely issue-free, as just a subset of the Matlab language is supported.
Have a look at this question for the differences between MATLAB Coder and MATLAB Compiler.
Just ask IT to install the MCR, that only needs to happen once. After that the users should be able to execute your programs.
Note: There is a reason that the MCR needs to be installed, and can't just be executed. Therefore I don't expect there to be a 'trick' to avoid this.
I packaged the 7.13 MCR compiler with my files (via desploytool).
I have some questions with assuming the client installed the MCR.
1) If the client doesn't have MATLAB, but just the MCR. he will be able to run my application by the MCR?
2) how can the client make the MCR compiler to be the default?
I tried:
mbuild -setup
Please choose your compiler for building standalone MATLAB applications:
Would you like mbuild to locate installed compilers [y]/n? y
Select a compiler:
[1] Lcc-win32 C 2.4.1 in C:\PROGRA~1\MATLAB\R2010a\sys\lcc
[2] Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0
[0] None
Compiler:
but I didn't see the MCR. his location is something like: C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v713 but I don't know what is the exactly path. should I know it?
3) should I have to make a bat file which configures the MCR to be the default compiler?
The MCR is not a compiler.
MCR is an abbreviation for MATLAB Compiler Runtime. When you use deploytool or mcc (available with MATLAB Compiler or the MATLAB Builder products), it converts your MATLAB program into a standalone component (e.g. an executable or library). You then give your end user the component and the MCR, and the component runs against the MCR instead of MATLAB.
The answer to your question i) is yes, your users only need the MCR, not MATLAB. Your users should not need to interact with mbuild at all, (and if they don't have MATLAB anyway, they can't). mbuild is used by you when preparing to create the component, not by your users when running it.
I think you confuse things. MCR is MATLAB Compiler Runtime. It does not provide any compiler, it allows one to run MATLAB programs compiled and deployed with mcc.
So the answer to your first question: yes, your client needs only to install MCR to run the programs you compile for him using mcc.
The answer to the other questions: there is no compiler..
I am trying to convert Matlab code to something that I can put as a server application, Java if possible. I have Matlab 2008a installed, AND matlab compiler runtime (or so at least I think - the directory is there). Running deploytool from the matlab command line works, but when I try to start a new project there's nothing there about Java.
The result of getenv JAVA_HOME is "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_16". I have set this variable myself, AFTER installing matlab (not sure if it's connected).
The Matlab Java Builder is a separate product from the Matlab Compiler. Have you purchased a license for it?
I want to use Arduino Target for Simulink. It is made only for 32bit versions of Windows, but I read that you can recompile it and use it in 64-bit Windows.
I have tried, but I have not succeeded. I think that the files you need to create are the ones ending on .mexw32. What do you use to recompile these?
From http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/24675-arduino-target:
To compile the C files for win64 (or
another platform), first make sure you
have a supported compiler:
http://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers/R2010b/win64.html
Once you have a compiler installed,
you can run "mex -setup" to point to
the appropriate compiler.
Finally, you can run "mex filename.c"
to compile all the functions in the
blocks directory.
I have developed code on a m-file script in Matlab that communicates with a Measurement Computing USB-DAQ module, and I'm quite happy with that. The problem is that I don't want to purchase another license for the computer which is running the code. I have looked into Matlab Compiler Runtime tools, and it claims that I can deploy my mcc built executables to be royalty-free. Does that mean I can install the MCRInstaller (copied from the computer in which the Matlab is installed) on the host computer running the final product?
Yes. You install the Matlab Compiler Runtime (MCR) on the host computer that will be running the executable produced by the Matlab compiler.
Yes, you can install MCR and using the Deployment Tool it's easy to create a software package with all the files you need inside.
