MATLAB: Error to load dll API using load libary

%sapiclose loopcompilerdllMATLAB Compilermex compilermotivenatural pointoptitrackor hirshfeld

I'm trying to load dll library of commands in order to connect to software api but when i load it i got errors although previous versions of the api and software did work

I tried in Matlab 32bit and it worked but in matlab 64bit it doesn't

my code is

    addpath('C:\Program Files\OptiTrack\Motive\lib'); % change if necessary

    addpath('C:\Program Files\OptiTrack\Motive\inc'); % change if necessary
    [notfound,warnings]=loadlibrary('NPTrackingTools','NPTrackingTools.h')

in "lib" folder you can find 2 dll's "NPTrackingTools.dll" and "NPTrackingToolsx64.dll" and 2 lib files "NPTrackingTools.lib" and "NPTrackingToolsx64.lib"

in "inc" folder you can find 2 header files "NPTrackingTools.h" and "trackablesettings.h" i attached them as text files

I'm using win7 64bit with matlab 2014a 64 bit i tried different mex compilers: Microsoft Windows SDK 7.1 (C++) and Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Professional. but got the same errors.

more background information: I'm trying to close loop of control system that get position of Quad-copters from Optitrack cameras and Motive software. i already succeed connecting throw NatNet interface API in Simulink but failed on using in Real-Time Windows Target and matlab support told me it's problematic to implement in Real-time mode Simulink because this API use .NET DLL so now I'm trying to make the other API to work because it's normal DLL and not .NET.

the errors i got is



Error loading library intermediate output follows.
The actual error is at the end of this output.

MATLAB: Problem in 2012b with SDK 7.1

								
								Ok, I am still verifying the result, but the build process works fine now. I had an older version of tmwtypes.h in my build folder. The only thing I did to fix the build was to replace it with the current version of tmwtypes.h in the root Matlab folder.
Like I said though, I am still verifying it on hardware to make sure the functionality is the same. I will report back in a couple of days.
						    
						
MATLAB: Do I receive compile time syntax errors when using MATLAB Compiler with the Builder products

								
								These compile time errors are caused by the use of C/C++ keywords like stdin, stderr, etc. for variable names in your MATLAB code. To resolve this issue, you will need to rename these variable names to non-reserved keywords for C/C++ and MATLAB.
