Thread Subject: interface .NET/ VC++ and Matlab

Hello
I would like to interface .Net or VC++ with Matlab.
In brief, there is some code which is developed in .NET or
VC++ and now I want to execute that code in Matlab.
I have absolutely no programming knowledge and knowhow
whatsoever about .NET and VC++ and one of my friend will
be developing the code in either .NET or VC++ which I am
interested to execute in Matlab
Now, my questions are;
1. How do I do this?
2. Should I use the code from .NET/VC++ and modify somehow
to make it work in Matlab? or should I ask him to give me
a dll? or something else which can be called in Matlab?

Please help. If some one can provide any small example
would really be useful

Regards
Vihang


 

any help?

I'm also intressested in an answer, I have a simular question but also
still no answer :-s I hope someone has an answer??!!

The answer depends upon the code you want to call from
MATLAB.

If unmanaged (i.e. straight C/C++), the (probably) easiest
thing to do is to wrap it in an old-school Windows DLL.
You can use MATLAB loadlibrary/calllib to access it. don't
forget to export your DLL's entry points as extern "C". If
your interface is simple, this will be the easiest. If
your interface is more complicated, you may want to write a
C mex wrapper that you call from MATLAB, and that wrapper
links to your library, translating the MX-Array arguments
to/from C.

If your code is managed (i.e. runs on the CLR), much more
difficult. In that case, you'll need to create a C mex
wrapper that hosts the CLR for you. CodeProject.com will
help you out there.

hth.

Hi all
I am new to MATLAB.I want to write c++ wrappers in
MATLAB.For this i have made a project in VC++ and want to
use this.
What i want to know is that is it necesaary to write a
