A set of C routines for creating, updating, and destroying a waitbar from within a mexFunction

waitmex
function waitmex
%WAITMEX a small library for using a waitbar within a C mexFunction.
% This waitmex function compiles an example mexFunction, adds the current
% directory to your MATLAB path, and runs two examples (one in C, one in M).
%
%    in C                           MATLAB M-file equivalent
%    ----                           ------------------------
%    h = waitbar_create (x,msg) ;   h = waitbar (x,msg)
%    waitbar_update (x,h,NULL) ;    waitbar (x,h)
%    waitbar_update (x,h,msg) ;     waitbar (x,h,msg)
%    waitbar_destroy (h) ;          close (h)
%    waitbar_return (h) ;           for returning h from a mexFunction

% Example:
%   waitmex
