• For a library, contains the entry points for e ach public M-file function.
Users of libraries generated by M ATLAB Compiler must call the library
initialization and termination routines in their client code.
Component Technology File (CTF)
MATLAB Compiler also generates a Component Technology File (CTF), which
is independent of the final target type — standalone application or library —
but is specific to each operating system platform. This file, which is named
with a
.ctf suffix, contains the MATLAB functions and data that define the
application or library.
Caution Do not extract the f iles within the.ctf file and place them
individually under version control. Since the
.ctf file contains interdependent
MATLAB functions and data, the files within it should be accessed only by
accessing the
.ctf file. Therefore, the entire .ctf file should be placed under
version control. See also “Recommended Location of .CTF Files” on page 5-23.
