Ubuntu Linux MATLAB MEX

Environment Description: Ubuntu 10.04 (LTs) amd64 + MATLAB 2011b

1. Install GCC g ++

Reference: http://stefaanlippens.net/cpp_mex_ubuntu804

Zhang @ Ubuntu-desktop :~ $ Sudo apt-Get install gcc-4.3 g ++-4.3

2. At the MATLAB command window prompt, type:

> Mex-Setup

Options files control which compiler to use, the compiler and link command
    options, and the runtime libraries to link against.

    Using the 'mex -setup' command selects an options file that is
    placed in /home/zhang/.matlab/R2011b and used by default for 'mex'. An options 
    file in the current working directory or specified on the command line 
    overrides the default options file in /home/zhang/.matlab/R2011b.

    To override the default options file, use the 'mex -f' command
    (see 'mex -help' for more information).

The options files available for mex are:

1: /usr/local/MATLAB/R2011b/bin/mexopts.sh : 
      Template Options file for building gcc MEX-files


0: Exit with no changes

Enter the number of the compiler (0-1):
1

Overwrite /home/zhang/.matlab/R2011b/mexopts.sh ([y]/n)? 
y

/usr/local/MATLAB/R2011b/bin/mexopts.sh is being copied to 
/home/zhang/.matlab/R2011b/mexopts.sh


**************************************************************************
  Warning: The MATLAB C and Fortran API has changed to support MATLAB 
           variables with more than 2^32-1 elements.  In the near future 
           you will be required to update your code to utilize the new 
           API. You can find more information about this at: 
           http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/en/data/1-5C27B9/?solution=1-5C27B9 
           Building with the -largeArrayDims option enables the new API. 
**************************************************************************

3. Warning

> Mex test. c

Warning: You are using gcc version "4.4.4-14ubuntu5)".  The version
         currently supported with MEX is "4.3.4".
         For a list of currently supported compilers see:
http://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers/current_release/

If the preceding warnings and errors occur, the current MATLAB version does not support GCC 4.4. The solution is as follows.

4. edit the file

5. Test

See the C-Mex instance blog. The. c file for writing mat files is added as follows:

Addtiontest. c

 1 #include <mex.h>
 2  
 3 double addtiontest(double x, double y);
 4 double doublesize(double a, double b);
 5  
 6 void mexFunction(int nlhs, mxArray *plhs[], int nrhs,const mxArray *prhs[])
 7 {
 8     double *a;
 9     double b, c;
10     
11     /******Output******/
12     plhs[0] = mxCreateDoubleMatrix(1, 1, mxREAL);
13     a = mxGetPr(plhs[0]);
14     
15     /******Input******/
16     b = *(mxGetPr(prhs[0]));
17     c = *(mxGetPr(prhs[1]));
18     *a = addtiontest(b, c);
19 }
20 
21 double addtiontest(double x, double y)
22 {
23     double z;
24     z = doublesize(x,y);
25     return z;
26 }

Doublesize. c

 1 #include <stdio.h>
 2 #include <string.h> /* For strcmp() */
 3 #include <stdlib.h> /* For EXIT_FAILURE, EXIT_SUCCESS */
 4 #include <mex.h>
 5 #include "mat.h"
 6 
 7 double doublesize(double a, double b)
 8 {
 9     MATFile *pmat;    
10     const char *file = "mattest.mat";    
11     
12     mxArray *mat_data;
13     mat_data = mxCreateDoubleMatrix(1,1,mxREAL); 
14     memcpy((void *)(mxGetPr(mat_data)), (void *) &a, sizeof(&a));
15     printf("\n%f\n",*mxGetPr(mat_data));
16         
17     int status, num; 
18     pmat = matOpen(file, "w4");    
19     for(num=1; num<4; num++) {
20         char pnum[]  = {(char)(num+48), '\0'};
21         char pLD[13] = "LocalDouble";
22         status = matPutVariable(pmat, strcat(pLD,pnum), mat_data);
23     }
24       if (matClose(pmat) != 0) {
25         printf("Error closing file %s\n",file);
26         return(EXIT_FAILURE);
27       }
28     
29     mxDestroyArray(mat_data);
30     
31     double c;
32     c = 2*(a+b)+100;
33     return c;
34 
35 }

In the MATLAB command window, perform the following operations:

>> mex addtiontest.c doublesize.c

>> addtiontest(7.5,15)7.500000ans =   145

>> load('mattest.mat')
