I want to open a mat file which has some two dimensional matrices in a C file. I followed the help file on that but when i compile the file i get lots of errors like "undefined reference to matOpen" and such errors for all the matlab functions. I have included the mat.h file in the include directory of the compiler. I am using the minGW compiler on windows XP.

Have you also included mex.h or engine.h? Can you show the source code you are trying?

I just tried to compile the matdgns.c file given in matlab
edit([matlabroot '/extern/examples/eng_mat/matdgns.c']);
This file does not have any mex.h or engine.h included.

I just tried it and it compiled and ran fine. Here is what I did:
- Copied the file matdgns.c from the [matlabroot '/extern/examples/eng_mat'] directory to a work directory.

Thank you for the reply. But can i use matdgns.c file on the MinGW compiler. Also how can i open the mat file using C in a system that does not have matlab installed. (If its required I can also post this as a new problem.)

Dhiman,
I would first try out what James suggested to ensure that the documented
workflow runs cleanly. I would then start out customizing it for my
workflow.
Another trick is to use the -v option with the mex command to figure out
the actual command line args sent to the compiler. You could use this
information to then configure your compiler outside MATLAB to pass the
required settings/libraries/include files.
