Java JFrame in deployed Matlab (click for full-size image) % (earlier code as above) % Display the Java window

To fix this problem, it turns out that we only need to add the Matlab waitfor command after making the Java window visible: The JFrame flashes on for a split-second, and then vanishes. Without a visible Matlab figure, the compiled Matlab application does not retain the Java window open. However, when the Matlab source code file (.m) is compiled as a Windows standalone executable application, when running the resulting executable the Java window appears for a short period and then terminates (exits). Java JFrame created in Matlab (click for full-size image) The problemĪll this works great when ran within the Matlab environment. Set (showWarnButton, 'ActionPerformedCallback', ) % Set Java button callbacks set (plotMeshButton, 'ActionPerformedCallback', ) getShowWarnDlgButton ( ), 'CallbackProperties' ) getPlotMeshButton ( ), 'CallbackProperties' ) % Get example Java window from the library % Add Java library to dynamic Java classpath When Matlab is in development (non-deployed) mode, we can load and display a Java JFrame using the following Matlab code:

Java Swing’s window icon can be modified, whereas Mathworks apparently places an license restriction on modifying the Matlab figure window icon.

Supports pluggable look and feel that allows applications to have a look and feel that is unrelated to the underlying platform.

Mature third-party Java Swing IDEs for quick and easy GUI development (Netbeans, Eclipse, etc…).

Java GUI widget toolkit provides a large collection of components (scrollbar, slider, etc…) and layouts (card, spring, etc…).Using a pure-Java Swing-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) has several important advantages compared to using a pure-Matlab GUI:

Let me know if you’d like to meet me there. Reminder: I will be visiting several US cities (Minneapolis, Boston and New York) in July 22-31 ( details). Today, Karthik discusses a problem when we wish to use pure-Java GUIs in deployed Matlab programs, and the undocumented simple solution. I would like to welcome repeat guest blogger Karthik Ponudurai, who has previously written here about the JTattoo look-and-feel, and about integration of Java controls’ events with Matlab callbacks.
