[Jun Tang]

very useful tool. It can save a lot of my debugging time.

[Rob Szalapski]

This was extremely easy to install and use. I am very pleased that I can work in my prefered Visual Studio IDE. NOTE: Change build settings to build directly to your Matlab path.

Found it it easy to use as a beginner to MEX and MAT lab ,it would be nice to see the code for WIZARD I might find out how to add to it . Support for ADO & Intel math library would be nice since purpose is speed. It only takes 3 lines an extra header & pointing the linker at the library but since this is going to be used a lot it would be nice to have it done .

For this to work with MSVC 8.0 you need to change the following in the \vcprojects\Matlab\MatMex.vsz

Wizard=VsWizard.VsWizardEngine.7.1
should be changed to
Wizard=VsWizard.VsWizardEngine.8.0

[Ken Meyfroodt]

Did someone succeed in using this in Visual C++ 2005 Express? (the free version)

I see the matlab template, I can select it and give a project name but when I press OK nothing is happening and there is no project created.(I did change 7.1 to 8.0)

The VCwizard directory structure seems different?

[Mahdi Shafiei]

For this to work with Visual C++ 2005 Express, in addition to the change mentioned in one of the previous comments in the \vcprojects\Matlab\MatMex.vsz file, you should also add a line. So,

Wizard=VsWizard.VsWizardEngine.7.1
should be changed to
Wizard=VsWizard.VsWizardEngine.8.0

and the following line should be added to the end:
Param="RELATIVE_PATH = Express\VCWizards"
