```shell
Copyright 2023 The MathWorks, Inc.

These instructions are for compiling and running a C# application
that uses MATLAB Engine API for .NET from the command line.

Projects can also be opened in your favorite IDE.

In these instructions, replace <matlabroot> with the value returned 
by the matlabroot function in MATLAB.


## PREREQUISITES ##

1. Install the latest .NET SDK from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download
   The full .NET SDK is required, not just the .NET Runtime.

2. Set up environment variables to point to your MATLAB installation.
   Use these environment variable names and paths:

Windows:
  PATH
  <matlabroot>\extern\bin\win64

Apple Silicon:
  DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
  <matlabroot>/extern/bin/maca64

Linux:
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  <matlabroot>/extern/bin/glnxa64:<matlabroot>/sys/os/glnxa64
  
3. Copy the example files to a working directory for example "C:\work".  
   The files that need to be copied are as follows:

Windows:
   dotnet_engine_examples.sln
   all files in the console and gui directories
   
Apple macOS and Linux:
   dotnet_engine_examples.sln
   all files in the console directory

## COMPILING ##

Use the 'dotnet build' command to compile all example projects.
  $> cd C:\work
  $> dotnet build /p:matlabroot=<matlabroot>


## RUNNING ##

Use the 'dotnet run' command to execute a particular example project.
To run the console example:
  $> dotnet run --no-build --project console
  
  
To run the gui example (Windows only):
  $> dotnet run --no-build --project gui
```
