Hello

I have a program that has a button to open an external .pdf file.

when I run via Matlab, I have the button call this code

system([sprintf('open %s',path)]);

where path is the name of the file to be opened, and this works fine.

I then compiled the program on Mac, and included the external files within the compiled executable.

However, when I run the program, nothing happens when I click the button

Can you help explain why this happens and how I can fix it? Do I somehow need to call the files differently if they reside within the compiled executable?

thanks!

Not too sure if this will work, but you may need to allow (full) disk access to the executable in System Preferences.

在 MATLAB Online 中打开

This is what I ended up using to get it to work

path = fullfile(ctfroot,'progname',file);

ctfroot does not contain the files, but there is a folder one folder down from ctfroot (named something like your compiled program name) that does contain the files which are included in the compiled program.

thanks for the help!
