Matlab dialog boxes control

Hi , can I control which dialog boxes matlab allowed to popup some where in the settings ? For example I have an exe file created from matlab project which pops up runtime errors everytime the input is incorrect and I would like to block that ?

Any ideas would be great , thanks. Yuri

can't you write a code inside the exe file that cancels the rest of the code if an incorrect input is recorded?

Then you won't get error popups

I receive the project in compiled (exe) state ... I dont have any control on the code . any idea ?

[William]

are these Matlab or Windows popups?

[yuri tupizin]

the popups are titled "Error" and they look like matlab popups

If the popups are coming from the compiled executable and you don't have access to the source code, it would be pretty tricky to suppress them. I suggest you talk to the author about the reason why and when the popups occur and see if there is a better way that will make you happy.

Its impossible, this executables are uploaded via the internet to the server and than everybody gets to run them ... I do not mind them crashing , I just need to get rid of those popups because they causing the server to hang , waiting for your replay Thanks

You'd have to find the running process and then send an enter key to it. See attached demo that finds running processes. Message boxes in MATLAB seem to come up as a separate process. You can use java robot to click the OK button or send an Enter key.

Hi , First of all thank your for your answer , the problem is this process is always running i.e. when I run a file called test.exe and it runs normally or when it crashes it has the same running status

[Image Analyst]

That doesn't matter. What I said/meant was that you're going to have to have a separate program running that is always watching the process list and springs into action when it sees a new process created by MATLAB and then clicks the default button. It's not simple, basic programming - that's why I said it could be tricky - and it may be too advanced for you right now.

The problem is that they are not created as a new matlab process. as i said the process starts as a XXX.exe and when the popup jumps it still called XXX.exe so there is not a way to tell if its executing normally or not
