Dear all,
I am generating C code from Matlab coder. I want to call the generated code from R (a statistical package). My preferred option for doing this would be to use the native R function ".C". This function requires that the variable types are explicitly declared within the .C function call. So the function call (from within R) would look something like this....
.C("pca_uev",x=as.double(x),y=as.double(x),u=as.double(u),e=as.double(e),v=as.double(v))
After generating the C code from Matlab, the entry point of the function looks like this:
void pca_uev(const emxArray_real_T *x, const emxArray_real_T *y, emxArray_real_T *u, double e_data[], int e_size[1], emxArray_real_T *v) { .....remainder of code..... }
Question is how to declare variables correctly to the Matlab generated C code. From within R, I only have the types "double", "single", "integer", etc... available. Matlab seems to define its own data structures somewhere/somehow. In the above problem, x and y (inputs) and u, e, v (outputs) would all be matrices.
I understand that C does not have a native data structure for matrix types. So it makes sense that Matlab generates a type for it. Declaring the matrix x as double from R would presumably pass it as a vector.
Does anyone know how to do the declaration correctly - or can point me to the right reference or documentation on this problem?
I attach the complete Matlab generated C code (for completeness).
Thanks,
Bart Mertens

To add to this, if I were implementing this, my approach would be to write a C function which is easily callable from R. So, it should have the signature that the R native interface requires. Let's say:
void pca_uev_R_Interface(double*, double*, double*, double*)
I'm not sure how R actually passes the arguments so you may need to adjust the signature to take the data in the format passed by R.
Then, the implementation could follow the pattern:
void pca_uev_R_Interface(double* x, double* y, double* u, double* v)
{
/* Unpack the arguments sent from R to get at double* values */
/* This may require changing the layout of the data if R is */
/* not column major. */
/* Now use the resulting double arrays, x, y, u, v to create */
/* emxArrays the way that Kaustubha showed */
emxArray_real_T *px = emxCreateWrapper_real_T(x, m, n);
/* And so on. Call the generated code here and return the results */
/* back to R */
}
See this answer for more details as well as the link that Kaustubha mentioned.
