Alternative to use uigetfile in Matlab code generation

uigetfile is not supported for code generation. Any alternative for that!

[Image Analyst]

What do you mean by that. Are you trying to use MATLAB Coder, the MATLAB Compiler Toolbox, or something else?

[Keshav]

Yes, I am using MATLAB Coder for making my code standalone.

'uigetfile'-the command which is absolutely supported for importing the images from the current folder of MATLAB.

Hi Keshav,

For code generation in MATLAB where "uigetfile" isn't supported, consider these alternatives:

• Directly input file paths as parameters, bypassing the need for interactive selection.
• Utilize the file dialog functionalities of your target environment (e.g., WinAPI for Windows) to select files before passing them to your MATLAB-generated code.
• Develop MATLAB functions that handle file paths as inputs for testing, which can be replaced or modified for actual code generation to avoid "uigetfile".
• Try "dir" function which is given as alternative to "uigetfile" in the documentation: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/uigetfile.html
