C Shared Library Wrapper

The C library wrapper option allows you to crea te a shared library from a n

arbitrary set of M-files on both Windows and UNIX. MATLAB Compiler

generates a wrapper file, a header file, and an export list. The header file

contains all of the entry points for all of the compiled M-functions. The export

list contains the set of symbols that are exported from a C share d library.

Note Even if you are not producing a shared library, you must use -W lib

or -W cpplib when including any M ATLAB Compiler generated code into

alargerapplication.

Note mclmcrrt.lib is required for successful linking. For more information,

see the MathWorks Support database and search for information on the

MSVC shared library.

C Shared Librar y Example

This example takes several M-files and creates a C shared library. It also

includes a standalone driver application to call the shared library.

Building the Shared Library
