Thread Subject: How I can generate *.exe from .m, .fig, .mdl ?

Hi, All.

My programm consists of *.fig-, *.m- and *.mdl-files. Can I make stand-alone executable file from these files? And if I can, what is necessary for this?
It's interesting that there are the same topics, but I cannot find an answer.

Best regards.

Do not know about mdl's, but have you tried searching for "matlab compiler"?

There are only 207,000 hits on google, and the first one that comes up looks
promising.

Results 1 - 10 of about 207,000 for matlab compiler. (0.29 seconds)

fig and m files (and other purely MATLAB and Toolbox functionality) can be converted to a standalone app using a product called the "MATLAB Compiler".
However, the MATLAB Compiler does _not_ support _any_ Simulink (or Blockset) functionality.
The mechanism to convert a Simulink model to standalone code is the product called "Real-Time Workshop" (or RTW for short).
Unfortunately there is no single/simple method to convert a combined MATLAB and Simulink application to a standalone application.

You can however use the following process:
1. Convert your Simulink model to a standalone exe using the RSIM target of RTW
2. Rewrite your UI to use the appropriate MATLAB functions for manipulating the RSIM generated exe (which with a little work allows you to run the model, tune parameters, and retrieve resulting data).
3. Use the MATLAB Compiler to convert the UI created in step 2 to a standalone exe.

You then have 2 exe's that can work with each other.
I have done this in the past with some success, although it is a little tedious.
I'm not sure if there are any examples showing how to do it, but you might search the File Exchange to see.

If you're not familiar with any of the above terms then go the mathworks.com and do a search, then read the doc.

Thanks for answers!
Of course I know about MatLab compiler, I read all MatLab help about it. But anywhere I cannot find explicit instructions what have I do if I have to compile .mdl and .m-file together.
Thanks for your method, Phil, I will try.

May bee there are some methods more?

Will be glad for any ideas!

Phil's suggestion is correct. Have a look at the following technical
solution on The MathWorks web site:
