You will need to write a header file for it listing all the interface routines you wish to be able to call.
Note: it will only be possible to call functions which were created with
extern "C"
in the C++ source.

Looking at the code, it appears to me that it is not designed to be called from C, but
"The loadlibrary function only supports calling functions that are callable from C and header files that can be parsed by a C compiler. Functions written in C++ must be declared as extern "C"."
To call it from MATLAB, you would have to create some interface code that was C compatible.
