Plot a graph on iOS app using Matlab Coder

Hello,

I am trying to run an iOS app using Matlab Coder by converting the code to C, which I can then use directly for my app. My Matlab code has a graph that is drawn/plotted as the time spans. Is it possible to have this plotting feature on iOS device directly from Matlab Coder or Would I need a separate graphics library in iOS for this??

Thanks.

MATLAB Coder cannot generate graphics itself. Your code would need to have calls to routines that on the C/C++ side were filled in with calls to a graphics library you linked against. In the more general case, Simulink Coder appear to know how to do graphics for some target blocks, but as far as I recall, iOS is not one of the Targets supported by Simulink.

MATLAB Coder generates code to standard C or C++ libraries. There is no graphics standard as part of the C or C++ standard, and there are multiple competing graphics standards (e.g., DirectX, OpenGL, Carbon) for operating systems that support graphics.
