Matlab Compiler Runtime (MCR) versions

Imatest requires installation Matlab Compiler Runtime (MCR) in order to run. Different versions of Imatest depend on different versions of the library shown in the below table. Imatest FULL Installations include the appropriate MCR library, while Imatest upgrade installations do not. If you move to a version of Imatest that uses a new MCR library, you will need to download the full installer, otherwise you can save some space and download time by installing the upgrade version.

Note: Matlab’s nomenclature can be extremely confusing. For example, Matlab R2010b (7.11) uses Matlab Component Runtime 7.14 and Compiler 4.14, See http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-4GSNCF/?solution=1-4GSNCF

The MCR is included in all 3.6+ downloads. The download and installation may take several minutes each. When the installation is finished,

The MCR should be located in %ProgramFiles%MATLABMATLAB Compiler Runtimev714 (for Imatest 3.7+; …V711 for 3.6) in 32-bit systems (%ProgramFiles% is C:Program Files in English-language Win32 installations) or %ProgramFiles(x86)%MATLABMATLAB Compiler Runtimev714 (or …V711) in 64-bit systems (%ProgramFiles(x86)% is C:Program Files (x86) in English-language Win64 installations)
Imatest is located in %ProgramFiles%ImatestImatest in 32-bit systems (%ProgramFiles is C:Program Files in English-language Win32 installations) or %ProgramFiles(x86)%ImatestImatest in 64-bit systems (%ProgramFiles(x86) is C:Program Files (x86) in English-language Win64 installations)
