Unsupported Functions

Note   Due to the number of active and ever-changing list of MathWorks products and functions, this is not a complete list of functions that can not be compiled. If you have a question as to whether a specific MathWorks product's function is able to be compiled or not, the definitive source is that product's documentation, not the MATLAB Compiler documentation.

Some functions are not supported in standalone mode; that is, you cannot compile them with MATLAB Compiler. These functions are in the following categories:

• Functions that print or report MATLAB code from a function, for example, the MATLAB help function or debug functions, will not work.

• Simulink® functions, in general, will not work.

• Functions that require a command line, for example, the MATLAB lookfor function, will not work.

• clc, home, and savepath will not do anything in deployed mode.

• Tools that allow run-time manipulation of figures

Returned values from standalone applications will be 0 for successful completion or a nonzero value otherwise.

In addition, there are functions that have been identified as nondeployable due to licensing restrictions.

mccExcludedFiles.log lists all the functions and files excluded by mcc if they can not be compiled. It is created after each attempted build if there are functions or files that cannot be compiled.
