Thread Subject:

Matlab comiler and simple matlab function

I am trying to create an exe from a matlab function which doubles the
number you give it.

matlab function: test.m

function [output] = test (number)
%return double the input number
output = 2*number;
disp(output);

run matlab compiler at command line with:
mcc -mv test.m

with the resulting exe: test.exe

However when I run it at DOS prompt:
test 1
I am returned a value of 98. I thought that maybe this was some octal
description of the output, but 98 oct is not 2 decimal.

Some other results it returned:
C:\Documents and Settings\alex\Desktop\lighttrans\Frank Work
\test_dll_2>test 2
   100

C:\Documents and Settings\alex\Desktop\lighttrans\Frank Work
\test_dll_2>test 4
   104

C:\Documents and Settings\alex\Desktop\lighttrans\Frank Work
\test_dll_2>test 5
   106

C:\Documents and Settings\alex\Desktop\lighttrans\Frank Work
\test_dll_2>test 10
    98 96

Do you have any ideas what might have happened?
Also note that the exe worked properly as %errorlevel% was 0 after
running

Thanks
ALex

Hi Alex,

it is the expected behabior.
In deployed mode , if you want to pass arguments , use str2num with isdeployed.
It is explained here:
