Manage Support Packages
Using a Compiler App
Many MATLAB® toolboxes use support packages to interact with hardware or to provide additional processing capabilities. If your MATLAB code uses a toolbox with an installed support package, the app displays a Suggested Support Packages section.
The list displays all installed support packages that your MATLAB code requires. The list is determined using these criteria:
the support package is installed
your code has a direct dependency on the support package
your code is dependent on the base product of the support package
your code is dependent on at least one of the files listed as a dependency in the
mcc.xmlfile of the support package, and the base product of the support package is MATLAB
Deselect support packages that are not required by your application.
Some support packages require third-party drivers that the compiler cannot package. In this case, the compiler adds the information to the installation notes. You can edit installation notes in the Additional Installer Options section of the app. To remove the installation note text, deselect the support package with the third-party dependency.
Caution Any text you enter beneath the generated text will be lost if you deselect the support package. |
Using the Command Line
Many MATLAB toolboxes use support packages to interact
with hardware or to provide additional processing capabilities. If
your MATLAB code uses a toolbox with an installed support package,
you pass a -a flag to mcc when
compiling your MATLAB code.
For example, if your function uses the OS Generic Video
Interface support package.
mcc -m -v test.m -a C:\MATLAB\SupportPackages\R2014a\genericvideo
Some support packages require third-party drivers that the compiler cannot package. In this case, you are responsible for downloading and installing the required drivers.
