Description

Instances of the matlab.mex.MexHost class represent processes created to execute C++ MEX functions. You can execute a C++ MEX function from MATLAB® in the host process using the feval method of this class. For information on running C++ MEX functions out of process, see Out-of-Process Execution of C++ MEX Functions.

The matlab.mex.MexHost class is a handle class.

Creation

Use the mexhost function to create a matlab.mex.MexHost object.

Create an object of the matlab.mex.MexHost class using the mexhost function. Use the object to call the feval, which executes your C++ MEX function in the MEX host process. 

mexHost = mexhost;
result = feval(mexHost,'MyMexFunction',inputs);
