How to know status of the MATLAB execution process has got completed or not?

From main program, I am starting multiple MATLAB Instances (say 3 MATLABs), and all the instances run a mscript. I am using `!matlab` command to start instances.

Once MATLAB execution gets completed in each instance , I want to know the status of their completion in the main program.

Hello,

It's been a while since I last did it, if you call matlab.exe with input arguments, I think it closes itself after its finished. If you call it this way, instead of using (!), you can solve it, check this link.

The other way is to write a code to your mscripts that will save a file to specific location. Your main program has to check that these file exist, once they do, continue execution of it.

I tried with the matlab.exe but it gave the status before it finishes. I will try with the another option.

If you use the ampersand

system("matlab.exe& other arguments")

after the executable, it will report the status immediately, otherwise it returns status after exit.

However, I still would suggest the solution from the link.

Sure will try with the option available in the link. Thank You :)
