MATLAB: How to correct this Linker error building a mex function? LINK : fatal error LNK1561: entry point must be defined

mex function entry point

I'm trying to build a NVIDIA CUDA\C++ function supplied to me from a colleague. The linker gives me this error:
>> mex -L"C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v4.0\lib\x64" -lcudart -lcuda -llibmex LINKFLAGS="/NODEFAULTLIB:LIBCMT" GpuInterp.cc scandata.c gpulink.o Microsoft (R) Incremental Linker Version 9.00.21022.08 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
