How to obfuscate the code in a matlab app before packaging it?

10 views (last 30 days)
I want to package and distribute a matlab app to my users but I don't want them to have the ability to see my code. I can't package an app if I convert the code to pcode so I need to find a workaround for this. How do I do that? Thanks a lot

Hi,
As a workaround you can create a single MATLAB function as a .M-file that starts a p-coded MATLAB function. You can p-code all MATLAB functions that are dependencies and then package the App.

There are several different ways to provide IP Protection of a MATLAB App. For example, see MATLAB Web App Server.
See also Security Considerations to Protect Your Source Code for a general discussion of the IP Protection topic.
