LOADLIB LOADLIB Load Library Function

Usage

The loadlib function allows a function in an external library
to be added to FreeMat dynamically.  This interface is generally
to be used as last resort, as the form of the function being called
is assumed to match the internal implementation.  In short, this
is not the interface mechanism of choice.  For all but very complicated
functions, the import function is the preferred approach. Thus,
only a very brief summary of it is presented here.  The syntax
for loadlib is

  loadlib(libfile, symbolname, functionname, nargin, nargout)

where libfile is the complete path to the library to use, symbolname
is the name of the symbol in the library, functionname is the name
of the function after it is imported into FreeMat (this is optional, it
defaults to the symbolname), nargin is the number of input arguments
(defaults to 0), and nargout is the number of output arguments (defaults
to 0).  If the number of (input or output) arguments is variable then
set the corresponding argument to -1.
