mxSetClassName (C) - Convert structure array to MATLAB object array

C Syntax

#include "matrix.h"
int mxSetClassName(mxArray *array_ptr, const char *classname);

Arguments

array_ptr

Pointer to an mxArray of class mxSTRUCT_CLASS

classname

Object class to which to convert array_ptr

Returns

0 if successful, and nonzero otherwise. One cause of failure is that array_ptr is not a structure mxArray. Call mxIsStruct to determine whether array_ptr is a structure.

Description

mxSetClassName converts a structure array to an object array, to be saved subsequently to a MAT-file. The object is not registered or validated by MATLAB software until it is loaded via the LOAD command. If the specified classname is an undefined class within MATLAB, LOAD converts the object back to a simple structure array.
