MATLAB C/C++ Graphics Library

Compiling and Linking Without mbuild

For graphics applications, you must use the MATLAB Compiler to generate C or C++ source code modules. The graphics library does not support the direct coding of graphics applications. You can, however, perform the compilation and linking of your source modules without using mbuild.

To determine the libraries you need to link with, use the mbuild command with the -n option. When you specify this option, mbuild sets up the compile and link command lines necessary to build a stand-alone application but does not execute the commands. View the output of mbuild -n to determine the list of libraries you must link your application with and the order in which you must specify them.

You can also specify this mbuild option on the MATLAB Compiler command line by specifying -M option.

mcc -M -n -B sgl lorenz.m

Note    On PCs, if you are using the Microsoft Visual C compiler, you must manually build import libraries from the .def files using the lib command. If you are using the Borland C compiler, you can link directly against the .def files using the implib command. See your compiler documentation for information about these commands.
