Execute MATLAB command in caller workspace
#include "mex.h" int mexEvalString(const char *command);
Note
To write MEX functions using modern C++ features and the MATLAB Data API, see C++ MEX Applications.
Call mexEvalString to invoke a MATLAB®
command in the workspace of the caller.
mexEvalString and mexCallMATLAB both execute
MATLAB commands. Use mexCallMATLAB for returning results
(left side arguments) back to the MEX function. The mexEvalString function
does not return values to the MEX function.
All arguments that appear to the right of an equal sign in the
command string must be current variables of the caller workspace.
Do not use MATLAB function names for variable names.
Common variable names that conflict with function names include i, j, mode, char, size, or path.
To determine whether a particular name is associated with a MATLAB function,
use the which function. For more information, see Variable Names.
If command detects an error, then MATLAB returns control to the MEX function and mexEvalString
returns 1. To trap errors, use the
mexEvalStringWithTrap function.
