run a executable program (path)

Emanuele — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 14:14:02 -0500

Hi all, i would deploy a M-File program in another PC without Matlab.
I have followed the instructions as showed in Matlab Site to compile a standalone program.
http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/toolbox/compiler/

I have compiled the M-Files using this command and the same M-Files as in the instructions
mcc -mv magicsquare.m
It would seem ok, but i'dont understand how i can run the executable program.
What is the right path that i must write in the DOS command window?

I have tried to copy all files obtained after compilation in the foloow path
matlabroot\bin\win32
and than i have tried to run .exe file writing this command
matlabroot\bin\win32\magicsquare.exe 3 (Where 3 is the matrixsquare lenght and the only imput of M-File)
but i have not seen the matrix in the window as in the instruction, instead if don't write the matrix lenght(3) i recived a error message becouse missing imput variable.
It's right?
If is right why i don't see the matrix value in Dos windows after i launch programm?

Thanks all in advance

Emanuele

First, did you install the MCR on the 'another PC without MATLAB' ?

If you did, then you seem to calling it correctly.
What _do_ you see when you run the following from a windows command prompt
after you CD to the directory which has the magicswuare.exe file?
magicsquare.exe 3

Thank you very much for your advice, but i have just fix the problem. The error was in the code M-file and not in the path root. So when i launch the .exe file it's run fine.
Instead i have another problem, i would hide the code, i don't want show it.
It's possible. Infact when i click on .exe file, it give me a magicsquare.mcr(folder) file that contain the m-file code. How can solve the problem????

Thanks in advance

Emanuele,

Did you try opening the M file?
If you did, you would notice that it is encrypted.

Thank you Ashish. I have try to open file, it is encrypted. You have right.
But what is the security level? Is high ?

Please have a look at the solution below:

Can I depend on the MATLAB Compiler 4.0 (R14) to protect my intellectual
property?
