matlab compiler on osx: using a matlab generated shared library

Dear all, I've successfully generated a shared library in osx 10.8 with matlab R2011b, from a buch of .m files. I can make a standalone C++ test program that uses the library without any problem. Note that this program was built with mbuild. However, when calling function from this library from a more complex program, compiled with cmake on command line. The program fails with this error: " No Info.plist file in application bundle or no NSPrincipalClass in the Info.plist file, exiting". Please note that my program does not generate any bundle, just a command line executable.

Do I have to make my build output a bundle? Is there any other way to circunvent this?

EDIT 1: I've just generated a bundle, but and I arrive to the point where the matlab function gets called, but nothing happens, the program stays there forever.

Thanks in advance. Best, Juan

I have the same problem (I am using the matlab library in a larger XCode project). Did you find any solution?

This seems to be a Mac-specific issue. I don't know too much about this, but perhaps this Technical Solution will be useful: Why do I receive ' No Info.plist file in application bundle' errors when I try to execute my compiled MATLAB code on Maci 64-bit systems?

It is indeed a mac specific issue. The answer in the technical solution is clear, however as I'm using the matlab code as part of a bigger application, I can't compile it with mbuild nor run with run_script.sh. The pity is that I have this application running both in windows and linux. Do you know why is this requirement of running through a bundle? Thanks for your time.

Juan: Sorry, I'm not a Mac user/developer, so I don't know the answer to your question. Could you please contact MathWorks Tech Support for more information? Perhaps some Mac developer forums might also give you more insight.
