Does executable matlab (.exe) require special license (parfor, optimization) to run?

Dear experts,

I'm trying to create an executable file from MATLAB with mcc. I have no problem running it normally, but when I create parallel computing (parfor & matlabpool). The executable file does not work. My computer has MCRinstaller and MATLAB, but the MATLAB has no parallel license. Do I need the special license to perform this task?

Thanks, Peet

Could you also paste the exact error that you are seeing?

Also keep in mind that the possibiliy to compile parfor and matlabpool with local workers was introduced in 11a.

[Walter Roberson]

The system that is doing the compiling needs to have the Parallel Processing Toolkit license. The system that it is being run on does not need the license.

Exception: Distributed Computing (required to use more than 12 cores or to use multiple hosts.)

I didn't enable distributed computing but still I'm getting an error related to distributed computing (please see below comment)

Answer 2

Hi I'm getting the following error while running exe

The class "distcomp.remoteparfor" is undefined. Perhaps Java is nor running.

When I'm running the matlab script it is running. Only exe has this problem

Ashok, which OS are you using? In particular do you happen to be using Apple's OS-X ?
