MATLAB: Does the generic C++ DLL not load properly in MATLAB 7.1 (R14SP3)

MATLAB

When I load my C++ library that is built using MSVC .NET 2003, using LOADLIBRARY, I get the following warning messages:
 Warning: The function 'my_dll_fun' was not found in the library
 > In loadlibrary at 246
When I use LIBFUNCTIONS, I get the following error:
 No methods for class lib.pixci_api or no class lib.pixci_api.

In order to use a generic C++ DLL in MATLAB, you need to wrap the functions in the source and header file with extern "C".
To do this, wrap the extern function prototypes with the following code:
 #ifdef __cplusplus
 extern “C” {
 #endif
 ...
 #ifdef __cplusplus
 }
 #endif
