Make executable matlab files

Hallo,

I am running matlab in a remote unix server through ssh, My connection isnt stable so i normally use -nohup- command. Unfortunately i dont know how to execute matlab files with this way.

I need a way to make an .m file as executable file and then execute it using the -nohup command. Is there a way to do that?

Thank you in advance

I don't know what the -nohup- command is. Do you have the compiler toolbox and did you compile it into a standalone executable? After that you install it on a target computer and run it just like you would any other program.

ok,i need a way to compile a matlab file to an executable format, so as to run it without first have to open matlab.

For example i need sth similar to type run test.m -nohup

(nohup means that the server will keep running even if i log off)

thanks again.

In my answer I mentioned the compiler. You'll need that and the link is here: http://www.mathworks.com/products/compiler/ It's also in the FAQ: http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#How_can_I_make_a_standalone_executable_from_my_MATLAB_code.3F

You will need the MATLAB Compiler, which is an optional and expensive toolbox.

I would suggest that you consider using the Linux "screen" facility, or use "vnc", as either method can allow you to connect and disconnect from sessions leaving them running.
