Choose Component -> Package Component to create a self-extracting

executable containing these files.

The self-extracting executable is named

<componentname>.exe.

Running the installer on a target machine performs these steps:

•

mglinstaller installs the MATLAB C/C++ Math and Graphics libraries.

Action: Add the

<application>\bin\win32 directory that mglinstaller

creates to your path. (

<application> represents the deployed application’s

root directory, the directory where the deployed application resides on your

system.)

•

mwregsvr registers mwcomutil.dll and

<componentname>_<projectversion>.dll.

•

mglinstaller writes any Excel add-ins (*.xla) to the current directory

location.

Action: To use the Excel add-ins, start Excel, choose

Tools -> Add-Ins, and

select the desired

.xla file.

You must repeat this distribution process on each target machine.
