Make note of the value of matlabroot, the folder where MATLAB^® is installed.

Open MATLAB.

Make note of the value of matlabroot (the folder where MATLAB is installed) command. You will use the value later to set the run-time library path in setenv commands.

matlabroot

Verify your current folder is writable and copy the example.

copyfile(fullfile(matlabroot,'extern','examples','eng_mat','fengdemo.F'),'.','f')

Build the application.

mex -v -client engine fengdemo.F

Set the run-time library path. This command replaces the value, if any, in DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH. For more information, see Set Run-Time Library Path on macOS Systems.

setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH matlabroot/bin/maci64:matlabroot/sys/os/maci64

Set the path. Make sure that you include the : path terminator character.

setenv PATH matlabroot/bin:$PATH

Run the example. The fengdemo application must be on your system path.

./fengdemo

MATLAB starts and displays a figure.

Type 1 <Enter> at the system prompt to continue and exit.
