MATLAB Builder NE

for Microsoft .NET Framework

Introduction

MATLAB Builder™ NE lets you create .NET and COM components from  MATLAB^® programs that include MATLAB math and graphics, and GUIs developed with MATLAB. You can integrate these components into larger .NET, COM, and Web applications and deploy them royalty-free to computers that do not have MATLAB installed.

Using MATLAB Compiler™, MATLAB Builder NE encrypts your MATLAB programs and then generates .NET or COM wrappers around them so that they can be accessed just like native .NET and COM components.

The components created by the builder run against the MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR), the full set of libraries that supports all features of the MATLAB language and most related toolboxes. The MCR is provided with MATLAB Compiler. To run your .NET and COM components, you must distribute the MCR with them. Components created with MATLAB Builder NE and the MCR can be deployed royalty-free.

For Web applications, the builder generates WebFigures that enable in-browser zoom, pan, and rotation of MATLAB figures.

A .NET Web application for visualizing a surface plot generated by the MATLAB peaks function.
