MATLAB Runtime Server

Engine API Example

This example illustrates how to prepare an engine application for the MATLAB Runtime Server when the application uses the MATLAB Engine API library. The major steps in the procedure are:

• Creating the startup files matlabrt.m and pathdefrt.m
• Compiling the application with the buildp command
• Testing the application with the Runtime Server variant

The example application uses two of theMATLAB Engine API library commands, eng Open and engClose. These commands open and close, respectively, a communications link between the front-end C program and the back-end MATLAB engine. See External Interfaces in the MATLAB documentation set for more information about the Engine API library commands.

This section begins with instructions for installing the example files included in the software.
