Calling matlab from C++
I tried to call matlab from a .cpp file. I used the following command to compile
engdemo.cpp which includes "engine.h"
g++ engdemo.cpp -I/usr/local/matlabR2010a/extern/include -L/usr/local/matlabR2010a/extern/lib -o engdemo
What I got is the following:
engdemo.cpp:(.text+0xdb): undefined reference to `engOpen'
engdemo.cpp:(.text+0x12d): undefined reference to `mxCreateDoubleMatrix'
engdemo.cpp:(.text+0x143): undefined reference to `mxGetPr'
engdemo.cpp:(.text+0x175): undefined reference to `engPutVariable'
engdemo.cpp:(.text+0x189): undefined reference to `engEvalString'
...
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I guess it might be some link problem but I am not sure. Please help me out. Many thanks in advance!
Answer
Following up on what @Kurt S said, you'll need to include libraries. These are common ones you'll need: libeng.lib libmat.lib libmx.lib, but you might need others.
Thus you want to add the linking options -llibeng -llibmat -llibmx
But you might need others as well.
