engPutVariable (C and Fortran) - Put variables into MATLAB engine workspace

C Syntax

#include "engine.h"
int engPutVariable(Engine *ep, const char *name, const mxArray 
     *pm);

Fortran Syntax

integer*4 engPutVariable(ep, name, pm)
mwPointer ep, pm
character*(*) name

Arguments

ep: Engine pointer
name: Name given to the mxArray in the engine's workspace
pm: mxArray pointer

Returns

0 if successful and 1 if an error occurs.

Description

engPutVariable writes mxArray pm to the engine ep, giving it the variable name name. If the mxArray does not exist in the workspace, it is created. If an mxArray with the same name already exists in the workspace, the existing mxArray is replaced with the new mxArray.
