Code Generation and Deployment
After you develop your application usingWLAN Toolbox™features, you can generate portable C/C++ source code, standalone executables, or standalone applications from your MATLAB®code. With code generation, you can:
Run yoursimulationon machines that do not have MATLAB installed.
Speed up processing while you work in the MATLAB environment.
Incorporate your algorithms into legacy code.
This table compares deployment characteristics ofMATLAB Compiler™andMATLAB Coder™functionality. Use this table to decide how to deploy your MATLAB code.
Deployment Characteristic | UsingMATLAB CompilerFunctionality | UsingMATLAB CoderFunctionality |
---|---|---|
Output | Nonreadable shared libraries. | Portable and readable C source code. |
Library dependency | MATLABRuntime. | None. |
Supported platforms for deployment | Windows®,Mac, and Linux®. |
Any platform that supports ANSI®/ISO®C/C++ code. |
Intellectual property protection | Packaged code is encrypted. |
Code is not encrypted. You can protect your IP by generating shared libraries instead of readable code. |
Algorithm acceleration | Same speed as MATLAB. |
Potentially faster, depending on the algorithm. |
MATLAB graphics | Supported. | Not supported. |
