How do I use the "-e" switch to suppress the MS-DOS window and "-R -logfile" to generate a log file?

I would like to know how to use the options "-e" and "-R -logfile" correctly.

This enhancement has been incorporated to the documentation of Release 2008a (R2008a):

web([docroot '/toolbox/compiler/mcc.html'])

To suppress the MS-DOS window and to generate a log file, use any of the two commands, which are equivalent:

mcc -e -R '-logfile,filename.txt' function_name

% -OR-

mcc -e -R -logfile -R 'filename.txt' -v function_name

This will suppress the MS-DOS window and generate a log file called filename.txt in the folder containing the compiled application. You can also specify an absolute path such as 'C:\Temp\filename.txt'.
