Hi to All I have recently migrate to MacosX 10.7.2 from windows and I use Matlab 2009b.
On my mac when I try to run a system command (equivalently bang or unix) appears the following error:
>system('myprogram.xe')
bin/bash/ myprogram.exe command not found.
Really I do not know how to strart to fix this problem any help suggestion is welcome.

It is extremely unlikely that any file ending in .exe will run on anything OS other than Microsoft Windows. You need to find the version of the program written for OS X .

Either that or you need to specify which Windows you are co-hosting, such as Parallels. If you have a something like Parallels then it might be possible to fire up a .exe in the co-hosted operating system.

i'm exactly trying to run a windows file, using parallels, with the system function. But no results.
Any help? Thank you in advance

You might be having path problems. Try
!echo $PATH
and check to see whether the directory that has the program is listed in the PATH. If it is not then you will either need to adjust the shell path or name the directory explicitly.

For Parallels on the Mac:
- first start a virtual machine
- now use one of the two methods described at http://osxdaily.com/2013/08/08/change-default-application-open-files-mac-os-x/ to indicate that you either want to open the particular .exe with Parallels Desktop or that you want to always open all .exe with Parallel Desktop. Note: you might have difficulty selecting "always open with" if the file resides on a Windows partition as it will probably say you do not have permission.
- Now, inside MATLAB, to run the executable, system() an 'open' command naming the .exe . You can pass it arguments using --args . For example,
system('open matlab.exe --args -r "disp('hello');quit"')
Instead of setting up parallels as the default application, you should be able to use open with the -a or -b options. More information on those flags is at http://brettterpstra.com/2014/08/06/shell-tricks-the-os-x-open-command/
