This change has been incorporated into the documentation in Release 2011a (R2011a). For previous releases, read below for any additional information:
The steps that are needed to compile an Engine application in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET are a combination of those in Solutions 1-OM4TI and 1-UC22O. As a complete example, see the following:
1. Open Microsoft Visual Studio .NET and select File->New->Project. Select Visual C++ Projects in the left-hand pane and Console Application (.NET) in the right-hand pane. Enter the name and path for the project and click OK.
2. Copy the code from $MATLAB\extern\examples\eng_mat\engwindemo.c, where $MATLAB is the MATLAB root directory, into myproject.cpp, where “myproject” is the name of your Visual C++ .NET project.
3. Follow the steps in Solution 1-UC22O. That is, insert the following code to your myproject.cpp source file just after the compiler directives:
struct engine
{
};
struct mxArray_tag
{
};
4. Open the project properties by right-clicking on the project name in the Solution Explorer and select Properties. Under C/C++ General, add $MATLAB\extern\include to Additional Include Directories.
5. Under C/C++ Precompiled Headers, select "Not Using Precompiled Headers".
6. Under Linker General, add $MATLAB\extern\lib\win32\microsoft\msvc71 to Additional Library Directories.
7. Under Linker Input, add libmx.lib, libmat.lib, and libeng.lib to Additional Dependencies.
8. Build the executable.
