Understand the mclmcrrt Proxy Layer
All application and software components generated by MATLAB® Compiler™ and MATLAB Compiler SDK™ need
to link against only one MATLAB library, mclmcrrt.
This library provides a proxy API for all the public functions in MATLAB libraries
used for matrix operations, MAT-file access, utility and memory management,
and application MATLAB Runtime. The mclmcrrt library
lies between deployed MATLAB code and these other version-dependent
libraries, providing the following functionality:
Ensures that multiple versions of the MATLAB Runtime can coexist
Provides a layer of indirection
Ensures applications are thread-safe
Loads the dependent (re-exported) libraries dynamically
The relationship between mclmcrrt and other MATLAB libraries
is shown in the following figure.
The MCLMCRRT Proxy Layer
In the figure, solid arrows designate static linking and dotted
arrows designate dynamic linking. The figure illustrates how the mclmcrrt library
layer sits above the mclmcr and mcr libraries.
The mclmcr library contains the run-time functionality
of the deployed MATLAB code. The mcr module
ensures each bundle of deployed MATLAB code runs in its own context
at run time. The mclmcrrt proxy layer, in addition
to loading the mclmcr, also dynamically loads the MX and MAT modules,
primarily for mxArray manipulation. For more information,
see the MathWorks® Support database and
search for information on the MSVC shared library.
