C Client Programming

Create client programs in C or C++

The MATLAB^® Production Server™ C/C++ client API allows developers to evaluate MATLAB functions on remote servers. Before you can evaluate a MATLAB function, you must convert the arguments to the function into MATLAB Production Server specific mpsArray structures. For information on working with the mpsArray structure, see Manage MATLAB Data in C/C++ Clients.

For an overview of how to create client programs, see Create a C MATLAB Production Server Client.

For a complete example of a client implementation, see Create a C++ Client.
