Can I generate code from Mapping Toolbox functions with MATLAB Coder 2.3 (R2012b)?

I am looking to generate code from some functions in Mapping Toolbox 3.6 (R2012b) with MATLAB Coder 2.3 (R2012b).

Namely, I am looking for code generation support for 'shaperead', 'shapewrite' and 'shapeinfo'. Is this possible?

Mapping Toolbox functions are not supported for code generation in MATLAB Coder 2.3 (R2012b).

As a workaround, it may be possible to use a combination of built-in MATLAB and C functionality to recreate similar behavior for code generation.

As of R2021a, you can generate C and C++ code using MATLAB Coder for some Mapping Toolbox functions, including:

• 3-D coordinate and vector transformation functions such as 'ecef2enu', 'geodetic2ned', and 'ecef2enuv'
• The 'oblateSpheroid' object and 'wgs84Ellipsoid' function
• The 'wrapToPi', 'wrapTo2Pi', 'wrapTo180', and 'wrapTo360' functions
