Stand alone executable command prompt

I have MATLAB 7.9.529 (R2009B) running on a Windows XP system. I use deploytool to build a stand alone executable. The executable module consists on one GUI with various menu items and calculation buttons. When I package the executable, I include the MCRInstaller. I am able to successfully install the package on the target machine.

My question is: When I execute the install stand alone executable on the target machine, I Windows command prompt opens and remains open the entire time executable remains open. Why is this and how can I get rid of this? I have reviews several webnairs on this subject and none of the examples they use exhibit this behaivour?

Thanks,

Bryan

Build as "Windows Standalone Application"

I do build it as a Windows Standalone Application. Is there some other environment I need to set?

thanks

No, you shouldn't have to set anything else. I'm surprised that this doesn't work. Does you application attempt to run anything from the system command prompt?

On your mcc command you need to add the -e flag. Note you need to use a Microsoft compiler for this to work (like Visual Studio express)

See http://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers/R2010b/index.html for supported compilers
