How can I associate a MATLAB function with events triggered by my .NET assemblies in MATLAB 7.8 (R2009a)?

I would like to associate a MATLAB function with an event triggered by a .NET assembly that I am using in MATLAB. The associated MATLAB function will be executed when the event occurs.

In order to register an event that can be triggered from a .NET assembly, you will need to use the function ADDLISTENER.

A modified version of the sample .NET component that is shipped with MATLAB is attached to this solution. The component is described in the documentation:

 Using netdoc.NetSample

The attached example has been modified as follows:

1. The project has been upgraded to Microsoft VC++ 2008.

2. The file "SampleMethods.cs" now contains a function called "raiseEvents", which triggers an event a certain number of times.

3. The file "bin\Release\testevents.m" demonstrates how to register the event and test the functionality.

Additional information on .NET events can be found at the following location:
