Standalone Applications

Create standalone applications from MATLAB^® functions

Create a standalone application if you want to run MATLAB code on target machines that do not have MATLAB installed. Compile the MATLAB code by using the Application Compiler app or by running the mcc command.

To run standalone applications, install the MATLAB Runtime. For more information, see Install and Configure the MATLAB Runtime. Standalone applications run on Windows, Linux®, and Mac.

Apps

Application Compiler

Package MATLAB programs for deployment as standalone applications

Functions

`applicationCompiler`	Build and package functions into standalone applications
`mcc`	Compile MATLAB functions for deployment
`deploytool`	Compile and package functions for external deployment

`isdeployed`	Determine whether code is running in deployed or MATLAB mode
`ismcc`	Test if code is running during compilation process (using mcc)
`ctfroot`	Location of files related to deployed application
`mcrversion`	Determine version of installed MATLAB Runtime
`%#function`	Pragma to help MATLAB Compiler locate functions called through feval, eval, Handle Graphics callback, or objects loaded from MAT-files
