Obtaining multiple enums definitions from c header file

I have a matlab program which communicates with a client via serial communication using a preset command reference. The client (an ST-microelectronics processor) is programmed using c code, source+headers.

My main problem is enums being defined in the c header files, and enum data is being sent to my matlab program, so I have to find a way for the matlab program to know the enum definitions.

The simplest and dirtiest solution is to use a custom text parser of the header file.

Any better way to achieve integration described above?

Thanks
