imshow is not in the list of MATLAB commands that cannot be compiled; see http://www.mathworks.com/help/compiler/unsupported-functions.html

However, if you are using a sufficiently old version of MATLAB, then imshow was in the Image Processing Toolbox rather than MATLAB itself, so with those older versions to use imshow() you would have needed to compile in the Image Processing Toolbox.

Which MATLAB version are you using? And what behaviour do you see when you attempt to use imshow() in a compiled executable?

Generally, either image() or imagesc() should work as replacements. If you are using imshow() with a logical image, then you should be able to use

image(BWImage); axis image off

If you are using imshow() with a two-level image, 0 and 1, then use

imagesc(TwoLevelImage); axis image off; colormap(gray(2))

If you are using imshow() with a grayscale uint8 image, then use

image(GrayImageUint8); axis image off; colormap(gray(256));

If you are using imshow() with an RGB uint8 image, then use

   image(RGBImage8); axis image off
