Building the Demo Adaptor
After familiarizing yourself with the demo adaptor source files, build the demo adaptor.
There is a pre-built version of the demo adaptor in matlabroot/toobox/imaq/
imaqadaptors/kit/demo/$ARCH. The Visual Studio project file and the makefile build
the adaptor file in a subfolder of this folder.
Note To build the demo adaptor on Windows, you must have an environment variable
named MATLAB defined on your system. Set the value of this environment variable to the
location of your MATLAB installation directory.
Registering an Adaptor with the Toolbox
After creating an adaptor, you must inform the Image Acquisition Toolbox software
of its existence by registering it with the imaqregister function. This function tells
the toolbox where to find third-party adaptor libraries. You only need to register
your adaptor once. The toolbox stores adaptor location information in your MATLAB
preferences.
