Thread Subject: Need a Makefile for compiling engdemo.c

Hello,

I am intending to use some of the matlab functions in a
C++ program. I tested the engdemo.c program for this purpose
and it compiled and ran ok with the instruction given in
matlab reference manual. It requires to run the following
mex command in the matlab command window:

mex('-f', [matlabroot '/bin/engopts.sh'], mexfilename);


I find it very inconvenient way to compile c/c++ program. I
was wondering, if anybody already have a standard unix
makefile that can compile the engdemo.c program.

Thank you very much.

You can also call the exact same mex command from the UNIX command
line. Meaning it can be called from a Makefile.

Or, run the mex command line with an additional -n flag to see the
output. Then paste the appropriate CFLAGS and whatnot into your
Makefile.

Thank you, Peter. It worked. I really appreciate it.
