[Eeglablist] EEGLAB with the MATLAB Compiler

Tue Jul 5 13:51:21 PDT 2016

Dear Ben,

The error is due to new coding of handles in Matlab (since 2015 I think).
I think compiling EEGLAB with this method is the proper way to do it. Otherwise, you will be missing options. But you could try to simply compile together all the functions of EEGLAB with eeglab.m as entry.

Best wishes,

Arno

I'm not sure if this means I fixed the last issue or just moved it. I'm not worried about the gui working for my purposes, I think I just need something for my preprocessing script to call which I can package in the compiler myself.

There are complexities associated with the EEGLAB options, because of the compiled version needs to use text files to replace these Matlab files. This used to be taken care of by the “compile_eeglab.m” function. However, EEGLAB has not been recompiled in years and I cannot guarantee that this script still works. Also, the problem is that plugins/extensions will need to be compiled with EEGLAB and that it will not be possible to update them.

I have been compiling and installing a program, attempting to run it and finding which functions or variables are missing, then looking through the EEGLAB files to see what needs included. I am currently having difficulty ensuring all the dependencies for eeg_checkset() are covered, below is the error output when I try to load a .set file. The only mention of the undefined options variables I can find within EEGLAB are functions/adminfunc/eeg_options.m, functions/adminfunc/eeg_optionsbackup.m and functions/adminfunc/eeglab_options.m, all of which I have included in the compilation process. This script does run correctly if I use my general Matlab/EEGLAB install, so I'm wondering if anyone has made use of the Matlab Compiler with EEGLAB scripts before or has some insight into some other dependencies I would need to include?
