.m to .c --- for newbies

hello everyone ,

         I have developed a code for arabic OCR suing image processing toolbox. I want to run .m file on linux ,for that i need to convert .m file to .c       Can anyone tell me step by step process so as to how to convert .m to .c          I m currently using R2010a . I know about matlab coder but its is unavaliable to me .I tried using matlab compiler but it converts .m to .C header file but i dont know how to use it :(   ???

MATLAB Coder is the only option other than rewriting everything yourself.

MATLAB Compiler does not create C code: it creates data files containing instructions for a threaded interpreter (MCR). It can, however, be used to create a Linux executable (but you would have to do so on a Linux machine.)

Hi Walter ,

Thanks for your quik reply

i m planning to run my image processing code on a 600 Mhz OMAP processor with Ubuntu OS . Also the code requires real time image acquisition . Do u think think my processor would blow up if i run my code using MCR

[Walter Roberson]

MCR is not supported on OMAP processors.

You would probably need to redo your code in Simulink and use Simulink Coder (previously known as Real Time Workshop). I do see the TI OMAP listed as one of the supported targets, at least for Real Time Workshop.
