How do you open MATLAB Runtime on Mac?

It seems like you have to enter bash commands to achieve this, but I don't know what to enter. Everything I try results in a 'file not found' sort of messsage being returned. I have been trying to figure out how to open it and somehow have not found any success. I am unsure of what to input into bash in order to get the program to open. Please let me know when you get a chance. Thanks a lot.

When you say "MATLAB Runtime" do you mean MCR, MATLAB Component Runtime? If so then that is not intended as a stand-alone application.

If you mean that you have installed MATLAB itself and you want to invoke it from terminal, then for example

alias matlab="/Applications/MATLAB_R2022a.app/bin/matlab -nojvm -nodesktop"

I put the above in my ~/.bash_profile

Hello Walter,

Thank you very much for your reply. Yes, I'm trying to run a particular program through MATLAB Component Runtime. It seems to be the solution you use when you are trying to run a program designed for MATLAB without actually having the MATLAB software. Do you by chance know how to use MCR for this purpose?

Could it be that I did not correctly append the string of code that they provide to the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable? I used

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:+${DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}:}/Applications/MATLAB/MATLAB_Runtime/v94/runtime/maci64:/Applications/MATLAB/MATLAB_Runtime/v94/sys/os/maci64:/Applications/MATLAB/MATLAB_Runtime/v94/bin/maci64:/Applications/MATLAB/MATLAB_Runtime/v94/extern/bin/maci64"
