The following example shows how to run two separate processes to initialize MATLAB® struct arrays.
You do not need the MATLAB Runtime installed on the client
side. Return values from the MATLAB Runtime can be automatically
converted using the marshalOutputs Boolean in the RemoteProxy class.
See the Javadoc API documentation for details at matlabroot/help/toolbox/javabuilder/MWArrayAPI
Compile the Java® package by issuing the following command at the MATLAB command prompt:
mcc -W 'java:dataTypesComp,dataTypesClass'
createEmptyStruct.m
updateField.m -v
Compile the server Java code by issuing the following javac command.
Ensure there are no spaces between javabuilder.jar; and directory_containing_pacakage.
javac -classpath matlabroot\toolbox\javabuilder\jar\javabuilder.jar; directory_containing_pacakage\dataTypesComp.jar DataTypesServer.java
You can find DataTypesServer.java in:
matlabroot\toolbox\javabuilder\Examples\RMIExamples \DataTypes\DataTypesDemoJavaApp
Compile the client Java code by issuing the following javac command.
Ensure there are no spaces between javabuilder.jar; and directory_containing_pacakage.
javac -classpath matlabroot\toolbox\javabuilder\jar\javabuilder.jar; directory_containing_pacakage\dataTypesComp.jar DataTypesClient.java
Run the client and server as follows:
Open two command windows.
If running Windows®, ensure that matlabroot/runtime/archLD_LIBRARY_PATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH are
set properly.
Run the server by issuing the following java command.
Ensure there are no spaces between dataTypesComp.jar; and matlabroot.
java -classpath .;directory_containing_pacakage\dataTypesComp.jar; matlabroot\toolbox\javabuilder\jar\javabuilder.jar -Djava.rmi.server.codebase= "file:///matlabroot/toolbox/javabuilder/jar/javabuilder.jar file:///directory_containing_pacakage/dataTypesComp.jar" DataTypesServer
Run the client by issuing the following java command.
Ensure there are no spaces between dataTypesComp.jar; and matlabroot.
java -classpath .;directory_containing_pacakage\dataTypesComp.jar; matlabroot\toolbox\javabuilder\jar\javabuilder.jar DataTypesClient
You can find DataTypesClient.java in: matlabroot\toolbox\javabuilder\Examples\RMIExamples\DataTypes\DataTypesDemoJavaApp
If successful, the following output appears in the Command Window running the server:
Please wait for the server registration notification.
Server registered and running successfully!!
EVENT 1: Initializing the structure on server
and sending it to client:
Initialized empty structure:
Name: []
Address: []
##################################
EVENT 3: Partially initialized structure as received by server:
Name: []
Address: [1x1 struct]
Address field as initialized from the client:
Street: '3, Apple Hill Drive'
City: 'Natick'
State: 'MA'
Zip: '01760'
##################################
EVENT 4: Updating 'Name' field before
sending the structure back to the client:
Name: 'The MathWorks'
Address: [1x1 struct]
##################################
Running the client application!!
EVENT 2: Initialized structure as received in client applications:
Name: []
Address: []
Updating the 'Address' field to :
Street: '3, Apple Hill Drive'
City: 'Natick'
State: 'MA'
Zip: '01760'
#################################
EVENT 5: Final structure as received by client:
Name: 'The MathWorks'
Address: [1x1 struct]
Address field:
Street: '3, Apple Hill Drive'
City: 'Natick'
State: 'MA'
Zip: '01760'
