I am working on matlab in windows OS. I am using h5 files and creating some images. I want to create an executable file from my .m script that can be run on a linux redhat. Thank you

Convert to execution file from m file, you have 2 options.
MATLAB Compiler convert MATLAT scripts to execution file (if Windows) and .sh file (if Linux).
MATLAB Runtime (no-cost) is necessary for running. You need to compile on Linux when you want to create standalone execution file for Linux. Supported functions by MATLAB Compiler is in this link.
MATLAB Coder converts MATLAB scripts to C code so you can create execution file. Some functions are not supported C code generation, so please refer to this link.

The answer seems to neglect that the user is planning to use the executable on a different platform than the one it was created with. I seem to remember that this workflow is not possible: https://uk.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/13054-compile-for-linux-on-a-windows-machine

Antonia, Kojiro specifically said,
"You need to compile on Linux when you want to create standalone execution file for Linux."
and then gave the alternative of generating C code using MATLAB Coder. The generated C code could be compiled on a Linux system.
