Certain Fixed Array Length Syntax Not Supported by LOADLIBRARY

The following structure causes an error with the LOADLIBRARY parser using MATLAB version 7.10.0.499 (R2010a):

struct foo { int a, b, c[20]; };

However, this equivalent syntax does work:

struct foo { int a, b; int c[20]; };

What platform (Windows, Linux, Mac) and what compiler are you using? Are you running 32-bit or 64-bit MATLAB?

This is a bug in loadlibrary it should soon be on the system as bug report 814593.

For now there are two possible workarounds you can modify the structure definition in your header file or create a loader MATLAB file with the 'mfilename' loadlibrary option and fix the broken field. For your example:

structs.foo.members=struct('a', 'int32', 'b', 'int32', 'error0', ' c [ 20 ]');

Should be:

structs.foo.members=struct('a', 'int32', 'b', 'int32', 'c', 'int32#20');
