Deploy Standalone Applications

Create and deploy standalone applications

Create and deploy standalone applications with Simulink^® Compiler™ to run simulations on target machines that do not have MATLAB^® and Simulink installed.

You can create and deploy standalone applications written in MATLAB code or built in MATLAB App Designer. To run a standalone application, install MATLAB Runtime. For more information, see Install and Configure MATLAB Runtime.

Generate and Deploy a MATLAB App with SimAppTemplate for a Model

Use the simulink.compiler.genapp function to generate a MATLAB® app for a model, that is deployable. Typically when a Simulink® model is functionally complete, it is often used to run multiple simulations different input and parameter values. To try simulations for your model with different input and parameter values, you can generate a MATLAB App. You can also deploy this generated app for use outside of MATLAB.

Export Standalone FMU with External C++ Code

Import external C++ code into Simulink® model using S-Function Builder and export it to a standalone FMU. S-Function Builder block lets user import C/C++ code into Simulink Semantic by building an S-function wrapper for external code. This example demonstrates this process in a phased approach by implementing a C++ multiply class, integrating C++ code with S-Function Builder, and exporting the model as a standalone FMU.

Export Simulink Model to Standalone FMU with Source Code

Export Simulink® component to standalone Co-Simulation FMU 2.0 with source code using Simulink Compiler™ and Simulink Coder™. The source code is packed inside the sources folder of the Standalone FMU. A documentation file, index.html is also generated. It lists the steps to regenerate the binaries on another platform. This documentation file is located inside documentation folder of the Standalone FMU. The source code can be used for cross platform workflow.
