What is the standard way to create a dependency graph in R2018a?

4 views (last 30 days)
Now that depfun() is deprecated, a few of the MATLAB exchange tools that generate a graph of the dependency structure of a folder no longer work. What is Mathworks' recommended approach to generating such a visualization? I assumed this would be a common need and I'm surprised there doesn't seem to be a standard way of doing this.
Thanks.

depfun() listed the paths of all files a specific m-file (or p-file) needed to function. It didn't produce a graph, unless you're refering to a different 3rd party function.
If you're trying to list the matlab files and toolboxes required to run a specified function, use matlab.codetools.requiredFilesAndProducts()
Example
[funcList, toolList] = matlab.codetools.requiredFilesAndProducts('MyFunction.m');
funcList' %this lists all function dependencies
{toolList.Name}' %this lists any toolbox/product dependencies
{toolList.Version}' %this lists toolbox/product version numbers
