Method and apparatus for automated MATLAB interfacing

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for porting a module of a programming language with a predetermined interface definition to a Matlab environment, wherein the predetermined interface definition in the module is parsed and input/output interfaces of the module are determined based on the parsing result. The determined input/output interfaces are used to generate a first source code for input and output type conversions between the programming language and the Matlab environment. Then, based on the determined input and output interfaces a second source code is generated for a wrapper function source file (12) that is compiled and linked together with module source files (14) to produce a ported Matlab executable module. Based on the input and output interfaces a third source code of a second level wrapper source file may be generated for adapting the ported executable module interface to the predetermined module interface.
