running an executable in matlab

llando · Jul 10, 2007

I am trying to run an executable with one argurment. It works fine in dos mode but when i try to run it in matlab with the code >> ! t012rin test.t01
i get a return of "Invalid handle". The exact code minus the bang works in dos. Any suggestions?

Since it's a handle error, I am guessing that your program is attempting to create output (e.g., write to stdout, create a plot window, etc.), but matlab is unable to process this output.

Try:

Check that t012rin is in your matlab work directory (or path)

>> ! t012rin "test.t01"

>> ! "t012rin test.t01"

>> dos('t012rin test.t01')

Rewrite the batch file as a Matlab script

Good luck!
