Calling a Shared Library
At run-time, there is an MCR instance associated with each individual
shared library. Consequently, if an application links against two MATLAB
Compiler generated s hared libraries, there will be two MCR instances created
at run-time.
You can control the behavior of each M CR instance by using M CR o ptions.
The two classes of MCR options are global and local. Global MCR options are
identical for each M C R instance in an a pplication. Local MC R options m ay
differ for MCR instances.
To use a shared library, you m ust use these functions:
•
mclInitializeApplication
• mclTerminateApplication
mclInitializeApplication
allows you to set the global MCR opt ions. They
apply equally to all MCR instances. You must set these options before creating
your firs t MCR instance.
These functions are necessary because s ome MCR options such as whether
or not to start Java, the location of the M CR itself, whether or not to use the
MATLAB JIT feature, and so on, a re set when the first MCR instance starts
and cannot be changed by subsequent instances of the MCR.
