What is a .MLPKGINSTALL file?
A .MLPKGINSTALL file is a type of file used to install additional features or support for external products into MathWorks software programs like MATLAB and Simulink. This file is specifically created by the Support Package Installer tool, which helps users add functionality to work with third-party products such as Arduino boards, BeagleBoard, Raspberry Pi, USB Webcams, and Texas Instruments C2000 microcontrollers.
The .MLPKGINSTALL file contains all the necessary components to integrate these third-party products into MathWorks programs, allowing for extended capabilities in these software environments.
To open a .MLPKGINSTALL file, you can use MathWorks MATLAB or MathWorks Simulink. These programs provide environments for technical computing and simulations, respectively. Here’s how you can open this file type: 1. **Direct Opening**: Simply double-click on the .MLPKGINSTALL file if your system has MATLAB or Simulink installed. This action will automatically launch the Support Package Installer.
2. **Through MATLAB**: - You can start the installation by selecting "Tools" from the menu, then "Run on Target Hardware," and finally "Install/Update Support Package." - Alternatively, you can type `targetinstaller` in the command window of MATLAB. - Another method is to click on "Add-Ons" at the top of the MATLAB interface and choose "Get Hardware Support Packages." The Support Package Installer guides you through the process, from downloading to installing the necessary files, making it easier to enhance the capabilities of MATLAB and Simulink with support for additional hardware and software.
