Qt to Matlab (mat format) export data to Matlab .mat format -v4

[windsword]

Helllo everyone,

Do you know of a straight forward method to export a matrix (array or vector) to Matlab's mat file format, version 4 spec or newer?

For example in Octave, you can create a Matlab mat file like this:
save newfilename vector1 vector2 matrix1 -v4

Any help or leads will be greatly appreciated!

I dont think there's a straight forward method, but I think octave is opensource, not sure, if so you can check the source code.

will you be running your Qt app on a machine with matlab installed? If so, why don't you invoke the matlab engine?

There's a C library for that: http://sourceforge.net/projects/matio/
I'm about to test it.
