The following example illustrates using waitForFigures
from
a Java® application. The example uses a Java class created
by the MATLAB®
Compiler SDK™ product; the object encapsulates MATLAB code
that draws a simple plot.
Create a work folder for your source code. In this example,
the folder is D:\work\plotdemo
.
In this folder, create the following MATLAB file:
drawplot.m function drawplot() plot(1:10);
Use the compiler to create a Java package with the following properties:
Package name | examples |
Class name | Plotter |
Create a Java program in a file named runplot.java
with
the following code:
import com.mathworks.toolbox.javabuilder.*; import examples.Plotter; public class runplot { public static void main(String[] args) { try { plotter p = new Plotter(); try { p.drawplot(); p.waitForFigures(); } finally { p.dispose(); } } catch (MWException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } }
Compile the application with the javac
command.
When you run the application, the program displays a plot from 1 to 10 in a MATLAB figure window. The application ends when you dismiss the figure.
To see what happens without the call to waitForFigures
,
comment out the call, rebuild the application, and run it. In this
case, the figure is drawn and is immediately destroyed as the application
exits.
