MATLAB: Run app created in Matlab on Mac

macmex compiler

Good day! Could anyone please tell me how to run application created in Matlab on Mac? My situation is:

I don't have Matlab on Mac, but I've installed MCR, and I can't understand lines in readme.txt file:

setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
                <mcr_root>/v711/runtime/maci64:
                <mcr_root>/v711/sys/os/maci64:
                <mcr_root>/v711/bin/maci64:
                /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/JavaVM:
                /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Libraries
            setenv XAPPLRESDIR <mcr_root>/v711/X11/app-defaults

So what should I do according these lines???

Best Answer

You need to set two environment variables to the following.

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and XAPPLRESDIR. The mcr_root is the location where you installed the MCR.

Open a Terminal: Execute the commands above (replacing mcr_root with actual location), navigate to where you have the Matlab app, and run it.

MATLAB: Cannot execute an mcc created standalone executable on another machine

MCR is not platform independent. An application compiled on MATLAB in a LINUX machine can be run only on a LINUX compatible MCR. So if you complied an application on LINUX and tried to run in on an MCR in MAC machine, it will fail to execute.

MATLAB: Is there a checklist to successfully deploy an application/ library on a system using MATLAB Compiler Runtime

MATLAB Deployment Checklist

===========================

Use this checklist to successfully deploy your application, component,

or library.

You can distribute a MATLAB Compiler-generated standalone application,

component, or library to any target machine with the same operating

system as the machine on which the application was compiled

(the "source" development machine).

For more information, see the documentation for the MATLAB Compiler at:

http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/toolbox/compiler/

1. Ensure that the MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR) is installed on target

   machines, and ensure you have installed the correct version. To verify 
   this, do the following: 
    A. Attempt to verify the MCR exists on your system.
    The MCR usually resides in these locations on these platforms:
    Operating System        Path to MCR
    ================        ===========
    Windows              C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v78
    Mac                  Applications/MATLAB/MATLAB_Compiler_Runtime/v78 
    Linux/Solaris        *** No predetermined installation location ***
                         Contact your system administrator.  
        NOTE: For information about the installation process and the MCR, 
              type "help MCR" or "help mcrinstaller" at the MATLAB 
              command prompt.

2. Add the MCR directory to the path specified by the target system's

   environment variable. 
    A. Locate the name of the environment variable to set, using the table 
       below:
    Operating System        Environment Variable
    ================        ====================
    Windows                PATH
    Linux                  LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    Solaris                LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    Mac                    DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
    B. Set the path by doing one of the following:
        On Windows systems:
        * Add the MCR directory to the environment variable by opening a 
        command prompt and issuing the DOS command, specifying either 
        win32 or win64:
            set PATH=C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v78\runtime\{win32|win64};%PATH% 
        Alternately, for Windows, add the following pathname:
            C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v78\runtime\{win32|win64}
        to the PATH environment variable, specifying either win32 or win64, 
        by doing the following:
            1. Select the My Computer icon on your desktop.
            2. Right-click the icon and select Properties from the menu.
            3. Select the Advanced tab.
            4. Click Environment Variables.  
        On UNIX systems:
        * Add the MCR directory to the environment variable by issuing 
            the following commands:
        Linux
            setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
                <mcr_root>/v78/runtime/glnx86:
                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/os/glnx86:

            setenv XAPPLRESDIR <mcr_root>/v78/X11/app-defaults
        Solaris64
            setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/lib/lwp:
                <mcr_root>/v78/runtime/sol64:
                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/os/sol64:
                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/java/jre/sol64/jre1.6.0/lib/sparcv9/native_threads:
                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/java/jre/sol64/jre1.6.0/lib/sparcv9/server:
                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/java/jre/sol64/jre1.6.0/lib/sparcv9
            setenv XAPPLRESDIR <mcr_root>/v78/X11/app-defaults
        Linux x86-64
            setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
                <mcr_root>/v78/runtime/glnxa64:
                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/os/glnxa64:
                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre1.6.0/lib/amd64/native_threads:

                <mcr_root>/v78/sys/java/jre/glnxa64/jre1.6.0/lib/amd64 
            setenv XAPPLRESDIR <mcr_root>/v78/X11/app-defaults
        Mac
            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
