MATLAB Builder NE

for Microsoft .NET Framework

Building and Packaging Components

You use MATLAB, a high-level matrix-optimized language with built-in math, graphics, and data analysis functions to prototype, develop, and test your applications. Working with MATLAB Compiler, the builder packages MATLAB code as a standard .NET or COM component and encrypts the code to protect your intellectual property. You can integrate the component with existing .NET or COM code for desktop or Web deployment. You can also modify the original code in MATLAB and then rebuild and redeploy the component.

The Deployment Tool is the MATLAB Compiler graphical user interface. You use it to build MATLAB functions into a .NET assembly or a COM object and package the component for deployment. You can:

• Select the type of component to build, either .NET or COM
• Add MATLAB code files and MEX-files to be accessed as public methods of your component
• Specify a .NET interface defining the generated type-safe API
• Set properties for building and packaging
• Build, test, and edit the component as necessary
• Package the component and the MCR (optional) for distribution to programmers or end users

Using the Deployment Tool to create a .NET assembly from a MATLAB program that calculates optimal cell tower locations.
