    • .NET Framework (Microsoft® Windows®)

    • .NET, including .NET Core (Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux®)

    For details, see System Requirements for Using MATLAB Interface to .NET. For information about .NET versions compatible with MATLAB, see MATLAB Interfaces to Other Languages.

    To determine if your system has a supported version, use the NET.isNETSupported function. To change the .NET run-time environment, call dotnetenv.

    ne = dotnetenv returns NETEnvironment which contains details about the current .NET run-time environment.

    ne = dotnetenv(version) changes the default .NET version used to load .NET assemblies in MATLAB. The run-time is initialized when you call functions in either NET or System packages.
