Is it a .NET library? If yes, see Using .NET Libraries from MATLAB.

Right, for .NET MATLAB has a different API. The command to start with is NET.addAssembly.

[Barinder]

I tried using NET.addAssembly('X.dll') and I get the following message back.

??? 'X.dll' could not be found in the .NET Global Assembly Cache (GAC)

I have no clue what this means.

Thanks Barinder

After using the utility gacutil /i X.dll I now get a different message from matlab.

"Could not load file or assembly 'EZ_B, Version=2012.2.8.0, Culture=neutral,

PublicKeyToken=839146fd54f35ea1' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Sorry, I don't have any experience with .NET assemblies, but you might be able to find something by searching on the web. Does your DLL load a third-party assembly called EZ_B? Looks like that DLL (or one of its depedencies) could not be loaded. You probably need to register all those DLLs also with GAC, or add it to the system path: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/951259/could-not-load-file-or-assembly-or-one-of-its-dependencies-access-is-denied

The suggestion to see "Using .NET Libraries from MATLAB" looked primising, but the link is broken.

[Kaustubha Govind]

Thanks for pointing that out, John! Fixed the link.

See loadlibrary() . You will need a .h file for the dll .
