MATLAB: Can MATLAB be used to test MATLAB Compiler-generated stand-alone applications if the MATLAB Compiler is not installed

MATLAB Compiler

I received a MATLAB Compiler-generated stand-alone application from a colleague. I have MATLAB installed on my machine, but I do not have the MATLAB Compiler installed because I have MATLAB installed on this machine. I would like to be able test this application without installing the MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR) libraries.

Best Answer

To avoid the installation of the MCR, it is not sufficient to have only MATLAB installed on the machine in question. The MATLAB Compiler or the MCR must be installed in order to successfully execute MATLAB Compiler-generated applications.
