'off'
, or as numeric or logical 1
(true
) or 0
(false

true
, and 'off'
is equivalent to
false
. Thus, you can use the value of this property as a
logical value. The value is stored as an on/off logical value of type matlab.lang.OnOffSwitchState
.
If you set this property to
'on'
, then the MATLAB command window displays progress information indicating compiler output during the packaging process.If you set this property to
'off'
, then the command window does not display progress information. This is the default behavior.
Example: 'Verbose','on'
Data Types: logical
Tips
The installer created by this function installs your MATLAB Compiler generated artifacts and optionally the full MATLAB Runtime. To create a minimal MATLAB Runtime installer that can run one or more specific MATLAB Compiler applications, see
