MATLAB: Is it possible to generate a single header file for a multiple entry-point function

dllheadermatlab coder

Hello everyone!

I'm using the Matlab Coder to generate a DLL from multiple Matlab functions. Using codegen I get a DLL and a header file for every single function.

For example: "codegen -o output_name function_one.m -args {1} function_two -args {1}" results in the files: output_name.dll, function_one.h, function_two.h

I think it would be less complicated to generate a DLL with a SINGLE header file that contains ALL functions. Is it possible to do that?

Thanks!

Alexander

For generating code for all the functions in a single file, you can do the following:

 c = coder.config('dll');
 c.FilePartitionMethod = 'SingleFile';
 codegen -config c -o output_name ...

MATLAB: I couldn’t create mex function that realize C function that call multiple functions in multiple files

It appears that this is code generated using MATLAB Coder - is this correct? If yes, it appears the generated code is meant to be compiled into a library (the path codegen\lib implies that), which means that the files will not have the mexFunction entry-point, which is required to compile them into a MEX-file. You may just want to run the .bat (.sh on Linux) file that should be present under codegen\lib\quadraticSolver to re-compile the code into a library.

Also, in general, you don't have to specify header files with the mex command, just specify the source files and specify the location of header files using the -I option.

MATLAB: Is there no coder.ReportInfo object in the workspace after I run the ‘codegen’ command with the -reportInfo option

The 'coder.ReportInfo' object is being created, but in the 'base' workspace, not the 'function' workspace, so it is not visible to your function.

To retrieve the 'infoObj' object from the base workspace, use 'evalin' function after you call 'codegen'. It will copy the object into the 'function' workspace:

function myFun(testCase)
  codegen -config:mex foo -args {3} -reportinfo infoObj;
  infoObj = evalin('base','infoObj');
end
