Today, let’s do one thing: take a combined programming with VS2008 and matlab2009a.
Configuration of Matlab
First, launch matlab and do the following to configure the initial environment :(the red part is my input)
mbuild-setup
Please choose yourcompiler for building standalone MATLAB applications:
Would you like mbuild to locate installed compilers [y]/n?y
Select a compiler:
[1] Lcc-win32 C2.4.1 in C:\PROGRA~1\MATLAB\R2009a\sys\lcc
[0] None
Compiler: 0
mbuild: No compiler selected. No actiontaken.
mbuild -setup
Please choose your compiler forbuilding standalone MATLAB applications:
Would you like mbuild to locateinstalled compilers [y]/n?n
Select a compiler:
[1] Lcc-win32 C 2.4.1
[2] Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
[3] Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003
[4] Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1
[5] Microsoft Visual C++ 2008Express
[6] Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1
[0] None
Compiler: 6(make sure your vs2008 is the official version, not the express)
The default location for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 compilers is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio9.0,
but that directory does not existon this machine.
Use C:\Program Files\MicrosoftVisual Studio 9.0 anyway [y]/n? y
Please verify your choices:
Compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008
Location: C:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0
Are these correct [y]/n?y
****************************************************************************

2008 require that the MicrosoftVisual Studio 2008 run-time
libraries be available on thecomputer used for deployment.

Trying to update options file:C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\ApplicationData\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2009a\compopts.bat
From template: C:\PROGRA~1\MATLAB\R2009a\bin\win32\mbuildopts\msvc90freecompp.bat
Done . . .
second, create a m file, naming it “add.m”. Here are in add.m:
function y = add(a,b)
y = a + b;
end
third, type this in matlab command prompt:
mcc –W cpplib:myadd–T link:lib add.m –C(concrete parameters in HELP document)
One or two minutes later, there are several new files in your current directory, just like:
Please notice: the four files myadd.ctf, myadd.h, myadd.lib, myadd.dll should be used by vs2008 project.So you must copy them to your current vs project directory.
You may feel strange to file myadd.ctf. However, if you do not copy it, you’ll get this in executing stage if other operations are OK:
By the way, By typing the following command at VS2008 command prompt, we can get the exports and imports of myadd.dll.Please notice the red part, because we're gonna use it in our own code.
>> dumpbin myadd.dll /exports > exports.txt

Configuration of VS2008
create a MFC project based on dialog named myadd, then do the following to contain “include and lib”:
choose tool-option and add the matlab’s include directory. see below:
choose tool-option and add the matlab’s lib directory.see below:
Then you’re expected to enter menu project-myadd property-linker-input, do these:
so myadd.lib was generated just now, and the mclmcrrt.lib is necessary for myadd.dll.
The configuration of vs is completed. let’s enter the code process.
Implementation of basic function
open your myadd project and add some controller such as the static text, the edit control and button. Just like this:
double click the calculate button and automatically enter the message-handling function void CMyAddTestDlg::OnBnClickedOk().
edit it like this:
void CMyAddTestDlg::OnBnClickedOk()
{
// TODO: 在此添加控件通知处理程序代码
CString str;
inta,b,c;
//get what’s in the edit control and save to a,b
a=GetDlgItemInt(IDC_EDIT1);
b=GetDlgItemInt(IDC_EDIT2);
//initializing function to avoid failure
if(!myaddInitialize())
{
str.Format(_T("lib myadd2 Initialize failed!\n"));
MessageBox(str);
return;
}
try
{
//declare a mwArray variable and store a to it
mwArray mwa(1,1,mxUINT32_CLASS);
mwa.SetData(&a,1);
//declare a mwArray variable and store b to it
mwArray mwb(1,1,mxUINT32_CLASS);
mwb.SetData(&b,1);
//declare a mwArray variable and store the result
mwArray mwy(1,1,mxUINT32_CLASS);
//call the add function and store mwy to c
add(1,mwy,mwa,mwb);
mwy.GetData(&c,1);
SetDlgItemInt(IDC_EDIT3,c);
}
catch(mwException&e)
{
str.Format(_T("%s"),e.what());
MessageBox(str);
}
//the ending function
myaddTerminate();
//OnOK();youshould add an annotation of it
}
And do not forget add the include file “myadd.h” to MyAddDlg.cpp !
So you are seeming to be allowed to link and run the program. If you do that, you may become a little disappointed. Because you’re likely to get the following error:
the way to it is simple.open targetver.h and modify two lines:
that’s to say,change the two “0600” to “0501”.
Then you try to run the application. To your disappointment again, you’ll get this:
For this problem,you may refer to this:
http://www.mathworks.ch/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/249680
Here is my way:
find the file \MATLAB\R2009a\toolbox\compiler\deploy\win32\MCRInstaller.exe and install it. when it’s done, the installing directory will have that .dll file.In order to find it in executing stage, you should set your PATH environment variable.See below:
And this time,believe me ,you will get a satisfying answer if your quality is not so bad…Just see below
Congratulations !!!
