Using Excel® add-in and the Deployment
Tool (deploytool or mcc), you create
deployable add-ins and Excel functions from MATLAB code that runs in Microsoft®
Excel applications. The Deployment Tool and mcc support
the following function outputs:
No outputs
Figure (graphical) output
Scalar output
Using the MATLAB® Compiler™ Function Wizard, you create Excel macros that can be deployed as add-ins or workbooks.
MATLAB Compiler supports multidimensional matrix output(s).
Add-ins created with MATLAB Compiler are compatible with both 32–bit and 64–bit versions of Microsoft Excel. MATLAB Compiler itself is in 64–bit only.
MATLAB Compiler generates two primary artifacts from your MATLAB code, using the Deployment Tool: a Microsoft Excel add-in and a COM component.
Existing MATLAB functions can be integrated into new or existing spreadsheet solutions, as add-ins, with the Function Wizard. You can also use the Function Wizard to create and test add-ins for new MATLAB functions.
COM components created with either the Deployment Tool or the Function Wizard
(.bas files) can be integrated into existing Microsoft
Visual Basic® applications.
MATLAB Compiler Components are ideal solutions for deploying MATLAB code to users of Microsoft Excel and large-scale enterprise financial applications written in Microsoft Visual Basic.
MATLAB objects are not supported as inputs or outputs for compiled or deployed functions with MATLAB Compiler for Excel add-ins.
