Hi Robert,
MATLAB projects (.prj) offers a way to manage and share your work along with its dependencies. Here is the workflow on how to use MATLAB projects to capture and manage dependency versions:
- Convert folder to project: In MATLAB, any folder can be converted into a project though the GUI by navigating as follows
Home > New > Project > From Folder
This will start the process of creating a project from the current folder.
2. Analyze dependencies: Once a folder is converted into a project, the ‘Dependency Analyzer’ can be used to find and manage all dependencies of the project.
Project > Dependency Analyzer
3. Capture dependencies: MATLAB allows one to directly manage dependencies within the project. You can specify which files are required for the project to run, including the source code and any external toolboxes or MATLAB products the project relies on.
4. .prj File : The project details, including dependencies, settings, path, custom tasks are stored in an XML-based .prj file.
Here is a link to the documentation page on analysis of dependencies in MATLAB for your reference:
Hope this helps!
Best,
Zinea
