			== MCR versions ==

			The version of the MCR library reflects the strengths and flaws of the Matlab version. Thus, if a ''Dynamo'' [[standalone]] has been compiled against, say, Matlab release R2015a, the performance of the resulting distributed ''Dynamo''package (for instance, in graphics rendering) will correspond to the performance of that Matlab version.

			In principle, we would like to distribute ''Dynamo'' packages that are compiled against the highest available version of Matlab, to ensure that users of the ''Dynamo'' standalone have access to the best performing version of software.

			However, Mathworks has recently introduced some changes in their MCR packaging system. For MCRs R2015b onwards, we have received user reports of ''Dynamo'' standalone versions not correctly linking with the MCR libraries distributed in the very same package. In those cases, the users have two options:
			* install manually the corresponding MCR version in their own system
			* use a ''Dynamo'' package compiled against R2015a.

The MCR (''Matlab Compiled Runtime'') libraries are a set libraries freely distributed by Mathworks.

They allow running code written in Matlab without having a Matlab license in your system.

== In Dynamo ==
The MCR libraries are used when running the [[standalone]] version, both for running projects or for the interactive [[Dynamo console|console]. The libraries are already included in the version available for [[download]] and in general you shouldn't need to reinstall them.

==General use of the MCR==
The code needs to have been ''compiled'' by the authors, who should have delivered a ''precompiled executable''to the end users. End users need to have a version of the MCR libraries that matches the version used by the author to compile the original Matlab code.
