MATLAB Component Runtime

None of the DODS programs require installation per se, as all of them are available as executable. exe files. However, for any of these programs to be fully operational, the user is required to first install the Matlab Component Runtime (MCR), version 7.13. This is available as freeware from Mathworks, the creators of Matlab, but it has also been provided here. Thus to commence installation (Figure A.l) ... 

ReactLab (www.jplusconsulting.com) is a new global analysis software package from Dr Peter King and A/Prof. Marcel Maeder that is based on Matlab but runs as a standalone addition to Excel using a free downloadable Matlab component runtime (MCR) module from Matlab to execute ReactLab. The program is written to allow the user to do all the data input and adjustment of equations via the Excel interface. 

Once the developer is happy with his or her GUI, he or she can deploy it with the MATLAB core platform, which is needed to run the application without having to install MATLAB itself. The MATLAB core platform is called MATLAB Component Runtime (MGR). Any application designed in... 

Click on the Package tab (the top black box in Fig. 11.261. and you will see Fig. 11.28. If you want to deploy the application to a user who has already the same MATLAB version that you use to design the GUI and the deployed executable file, then there is no need to add MATLAB Component Runtime (MCR) file. However, if the user lacks the same version of MATLAB that you possess, as a developer, then you will need to create the application, including MCR.
