Question

Instead of writing quit in my .m file, can I do this through command? I want to close MATLAB right after the file execution is completed.

For example, this is my command

matlab -nodisplay < my_script

Thank you very much.

This is the actual command I was trying to make

matlab -nodisplay -nodesktop -nosplash -nojvm -r "try, basic_plot;end, quit"

Answer 1

matlab -nosplash -nodesktop -r "my_script; quit"

Edit:

Following Edric’s recommendation, you’d better use one of these:

matlab -nosplash -nodesktop -r "try, my_script; end, quit"
matlab -nosplash -nodesktop -r "try, my_script; catch, disp('failed'), end, quit"
matlab -nosplash -nodesktop -r "try, my_script; catch e, your_error_handling_function(e), end, quit"
