Build Interface

Step 3 of 4 in Header and Compiled Library Files on Linux

Validate Edits to Library Definition File

In the previous step, you modified the library definition file definematrixlib.m. To verify the MATLAB^® statements, validate the file and fix any reported errors in the file.

definematrixlib;

View Functionality

If you defined all constructs in the definition file in the previous step, then the summary function shows the complete library. In some cases, you might not define everything. Use summary to review the library. If you need to make changes, return to the previous step to edit definematrixlib.

MATLAB Interface to matrixlib Library

Class clib.matrixlib.Mat

  Constructors:
    clib.matrixlib.Mat(clib.matrixlib.Mat)
    clib.matrixlib.Mat()

  Methods:
    setMat(clib.array.matrixlib.Int)
    int32 getMat(uint64)
    uint64 getLength()
    copyMat(clib.array.matrixlib.Int)

  No Properties defined

Functions
int32 clib.matrixlib.addMat(clib.matrixlib.Mat)
clib.matrixlib.updateMatByX(clib.matrixlib.Mat,int32)
clib.matrixlib.updateMatBySize(clib.matrixlib.Mat,clib.array.matrixlib.Int)

Build Interface and Add to MATLAB Path

Build the matrixlib interface to the library.

build(definematrixlib)

Building interface file 'matrixlibInterface.so' for clib package 'matrixlib'.
Interface file 'matrixlibInterface.so' built in folder '/home/Documents/MATLAB/matrixlib'.

To use the library, add the interface file folder to the MATLAB path.
addpath('/home/Documents/MATLAB/matrixlib')

Either click the addpath link in the message or type:

addpath('matrixlib')

Note

You can repeat the generate, define, and build steps. However, once you display help for or call functions in the library, you cannot update the definematrixlib definition file in the same MATLAB session. Either restart MATLAB or create a new definition file by using the PackageName name-value argument for the clibgen.generateLibraryDefinition function.

To call functions in the library, continue with the next step.
