addStartupFile

Add startup file to project

Syntax

addStartupFile(proj,file)

Description

addStartupFile(proj,file) adds a startup file to the specified project. Startup files automatically run (if they are .m and .p files), load (if they are .mat files), or open (if they are Simulink^® models) when you open the project.

Examples

Add a Startup File

Open the Times Table App project. Use currentProject to create a project object from the currently loaded project.

openExample("matlab/TimesTableProjectExample")
proj = currentProject;

Automatically run the Times Table app when the project opens by making the runTheseTests.m file a startup file.

filepath = fullfile("utilities","runTheseTests.m");
addStartupFile(proj,filepath);
