Loading a DLL file in Matlab

Hi. I will have to load an DLL file into Matlab but I do not have a dll header file. Could someone please give some examples of how to build such header file?

Hi George Alin Raducu,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to load a DLL into MALTAB, without a header file. More information on this can be found in the thread below:

Dynamic Library without a H file

Below are some resources that will help you create a MATLAB function into a C/C++ Shared DLL:

Create a C/C++ Application with MATLAB Code

How do I create a C/C++ shared library with MATLAB Compiler that can be used in a Microsoft Visual C++ 2005?

Information on how to integrate the C/C++ Shared Library into your application:

Also, there are some limitations to Shared Libraries integration with MATLAB:

Hope this helps!

Thanks

 Hi,
Thank you very much for your information. I tried to build my own header file and create an S-function in order to load the DLL but I when I'm running the simulation I get only NULL outputs. I guess that I'm doing something wrong therefor I attach my header and c files. Would be great If someone could comment on these files.    
Thank you very much!!
