Obfuscate folder structures, file names, and user code in the deployable archive. If you enable this property, then folder structures and file names in the deployable archive are obfuscated from the end user, and user code and data contained in .m , .mlapp , .p , .mat , MLX, SFX, and MEX files are placed into a user package within the archive. Additionally, all .m files are converted to P-files before packaging.
During runtime, MATLAB code and data is decrypted and loaded directly from the user package rather than extracted to the file system. MEX files are temporarily extracted from the user package before being loaded.
To manually include additional file types in the user package, add each file type in a separate extension tag to the file matlabroot /toolbox/compiler/advanced_package_supported_files.xml .
The following are not supported:
ver function
Calling external libraries such as DLLs
Out-of-process MATLAB Runtime (C++ shared library for MATLAB Data Array)
Out-of-process MEX file execution ( mexhost , feval , matlab.mex.MexHost )
Before R2023b: .mat files other than v7.3
Enabling this option is equivalent to using mcc with -j and -s specified.
