updateDependencies

Update project dependencies

Syntax

updateDependencies(proj)

updateDependencies(proj,ReanalyzeAll=tf)

Description

updateDependencies(proj) runs a dependency analysis on the specified project to update the known dependencies between project files. After the first dependency analysis, running updateDependencies incrementally updates the results.

updateDependencies(proj,ReanalyzeAll=tf) reanalyzes all files in the project and performs a complete dependency analysis.

Examples

Update Project Dependencies

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

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

Update the project dependencies. By default, updateDependencies performs an incremental dependency analysis. For information on reanalyzing all files and performing a complete dependency analysis, see Reanalyze All Project Dependencies.

updateDependencies(proj);

Get the files required by the timestable.mlapp project file.

g = proj.Dependencies;
requiredFiles = bfsearch(g,which("source/timestable.mlapp"))

requiredFiles =

  2×1 cell array

    {'C:\myProjects\examples\TimesTableApp\source\timestable.mlapp'}
    {'C:\myProjects\examples\TimesTableApp\source\timesTableGame.m'}

Reanalyze All Project Dependencies
