I am trying to compile magicsquare on Intel Mac using the following command

mcc -m magicsquare.m -R -nojvm -v

However, MCC fails with the following output in the MATLAB command window ERROR: Warning: You have specified '-R -nojvm', which may restrict or eliminate MATLAB graphics functionality at runtime. dyld: Library not loaded: libtbb.dylib Referenced from: /home/…./R2009a/ship/unix/dist/bin/maci/libmwservices.dylib Reason: image not found Trace/BPT trap "/home/……./R2009a/ship/unix/dist/bin/maci/mcc" -E "/tmp/09408Zse7xJ_37896" -Y "/home/……../.matlab/R2009a_licenses:/home/…./R2009a/ship/unix/dist/licenses/license.dat:/home/……../R2009a/ship/unix/dist/licenses/trial_0_R2009a.lic": Trace/breakpoint trap ???

MCC commands expect the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to be set before compiling your program. Verify that the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is set to the following on Intel Mac systems:

 DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH = $matlabroot/bin/maci:matlabroot/sys/os/maci:/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/JavaVM:/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Libraries

where $matlabroot is the MATLAB installation directory on your machine and can be found by typing 'matlabroot' at the MATLAB command prompt.

This information is also included in MATLAB Help Documentation here:

MATLAB: What is the setting for DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH on Intel Mac to run an application created with MATLAB Compiler 4.5 (R2006b)

This bug has been fixed in Release 2007a (R2007a). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

There is an error within the documentation for MATLAB Compiler 4.5 (R2006b) Intel Mac beta within the reference section titled "UNIX Settings for Development and Testing" and "UNIX Paths for Runtime Deployment".

The settings listed under the subsection for Mac OS X are for Macs with PowerPC chips. For Intel Macs the settings should be as follows.

For Development and Testing on computers with MATLAB Compiler installed:

 setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH 
 matlabroot/bin/maci: 
 matlabroot/sys/os/maci: 
 /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/JavaVM: 
 /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Libraries
 setenv XAPPLRESDIR matlabroot/X11/app-defaults

For Runtime Deployment on computers with the MCR installed:

 setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH 
 mcr_root/version/runtime/maci: 
 mcr_root/version/sys/os/maci: 
 mcr_root/version/bin/maci: 
 /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/JavaVM: 
 /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Libraries
 setenv XAPPLRESDIR mcr_root/version/X11/app-defaults

These instructions are written for Engine applications on Intel Macs running 32-bit MATLAB. For PowerPC Macs, substitute 'mac' for 'maci' in each of the paths listed below, while for 64-bit Intel Macs, substitute 'maci64' for 'maci'.

First, ensure that you are using a supported version of Xcode and gcc for your version of MATLAB:

https://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers.html

1. Get the Unix shell PATH variable. Add ".", "$MATLABROOT/bin" and "$MATLABROOT/bin/maci".

where $MATLABROOT is your MATLAB installation directory, as returned by executing:

matlabroot

at the MATLAB Command Prompt.

2. Create new project, Command Line Utility: Standard Tool, with project name 'projname'. Select C/C++ Style not the default Foundation.

3. Add engdemo.c as main file.

4. Project -> Edit Project Settings, choose Build tab, select Search Paths group.

5. Select Architecture as x86 (32 bit Universal).

6. Header Search Path: Add

$MATLABROOT/extern/include

This search path setting corresponds to the "-I$MATLABROOT/extern/include" flags passed to gcc.

7. Select "Library search path" and click Edit. Click + and add "$MATLABROOT/bin/maci" and "$MATLABROOT/runtime/maci". Leave the existing "$(inherited)" item.

This setting corresponds to the "-L$MATLABROOT/bin/maci" flag passed to gcc.

8. Select the Preprocessing section, and set Preprocessor Macros to "MATLAB_MEX_FILE MX_COMPAT_32 NDEBUG".

This corresponds to the "-DMATLAB_MEX_FILE -DMX_COMPAT_32 -DNDEBUG" flags passed to gcc.

9. Switch to "Code Generation" group and select "No Common Blocks".

This corresponds to "-fno-common".

10. Set Optimization Level to "Fastest [-O3]".

This corresponds to "-O3".

11. Select "Language" group and ensure that "Enable C++ Exceptions" is checked.

This corresponds to "-fexceptions".

12. Switch to "Linking" group. Set "Other Linker Flags" to "-Wl,-flat_namespace -undefined suppress, -lmx and -leng".

13. In Project window, select Targets -> projname -> Link Binary with Libraries, control-click and select Add, and pick these libraries:

$MATLABROOT/bin/maci/libeng.dylib

$MATLABROOT/bin/maci/libmx.dylib

Ensure that "Copy files..." is not checked. This corresponds to the "-leng -lmx" flags passed to gcc.

14. Select Project->Edit Active Executable 'projname'. Switch to Arguments tab.

15. Add Unix shell PATH variable with value from step 1.

16. Add Unix shell DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable with the following values:

$MATLABROOT/runtime/maci:

$MATLABROOT/bin/maci:

$MATLABROOT/sys/os/maci:

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/JavaVM:

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Libraries

Also, add variable XAPPLRESDIR with value:

$MATLABROOT/X11/app-defaults

This corresponds to the environment variables needed for Engine applications.

17. In Source window, click Build.

18. In Source window, click Build & Run. You should now be executing an Engine application within Xcode.
