Why do I receive the "apps-default" warning when running my deployed standalone executable or shared library from a UNIX or Linux shell?

I create a standalone executable or shared library using the MATLAB Compiler. When I run it within my UNIX/Linux shell (e.g. csh/tcsh) I get an "apps-default" warning:

 

Warning: latest version of matlab app-defaults file not found.

Contact your system administrator to have this file installed.

Although I get the above warning when running my deployed program, it does not prevent me from running my application.

The Linux/UNIX environment variable XAPPLRESDIR should be set to the below path before the standalone executable or shared library runs.

If running against the MCR:

setenv XAPPLRESDIR <mcrroot>/<version>/X11/app-defaults

where mcrroot is the root installation folder of the MCR, and version is the version of the MCR.

If running against MATLAB:

setenv XAPPLRESDIR <matlabroot>/X11/app-defaults

where matlabroot is the root installation folder of MATLAB.
