To run 'mexw32' from a script.

Hi, I want to run '*.mexw32' file from a matlab script(*.m). What is the command to do it?

Hopefully you're on the correct machine for the mex file, but you just call the function without the mexw32 extension.

 out = functioname(a,b);

You have to make sure the mex file is on the MATLAB path. Use addpath() or pathtool to add the folder with the mex file

For example, if you have the Signal Processing Toolbox, levinson() is a mex file. Enter:

 >>which levinson

but to call it in a script or from the command line, you just use it like a MATLAB function.

Addendum: With "correct machine" Wayne means MEXW32 is for Windows 32 Bit architectures only. See MEXEXT for other extensions.

Thanks for answering. You are right, function should be called without extension. Now the code is working properly. Thanks again.
