Hi,
 
I wanted to know if anyone has ever tried running an .exe file from an .m file, passing 2
arguments as input variables to the exe file?
 
Example>>> run('C:\directory\file.exe <arg1> <arg2>')
 
<arg1> and <arg2> are stored as variables in the matlab .m file

Many thanks,
 
Shailen

Hi,

You can do this by using !  symbol before the command with arguments. Or use
'system' command in the Matalab. See Matlab help for more details.

Try the instruction matlab  dos

ex.
string  = 'name_program.exe 12  45';
 dos(string);

in the string you can also put the path to reach the executable
I hope this help you
Best Regards

thanks mate,
 
i have actually found out that dos(string) is the command to be used and not run(string).
run(string) is used rather for matlab .m files. It is better to put the string between
"" as if a folder contains spaces, the command does not run properly
 
example string="cd\program files"
dos(string)

cheers,
 
Shailen
