Building a Standalone Application with MATLAB Compiler

If you have written a MATLAB program that uses the Zaber Motion Library toolbox and are trying to use MATLAB Compiler to build a standalone application for your users, you will need to add some additional binary dependencies to your build configuration. The paths to these files can be produced by calling the following utility function:

dependencies = zaber.motion.Helper.getCompilerDependencies();
for dep=dependencies
    disp(dep);
end

For a complete example, please see our MATLAB Compiler article in the Zaber examples repo here.
