How to work with loadlibrary and C header files

Hey,

I know that this question is only down to me not knowing the basics of working with c so I hoop that somebody is able to help me with this.

For a project I have to create a struct in c and then use this stuct to load it into matlab using loadlibrary and this example: https://nl.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/41648-converting-matlab-struct-to-c-struct-and-access-byte-data

However I have no idea how to even create the right files in the c language and I cant find any information on this online.

I have attached the c file as a txt file to this question.

Any help or tips are welcome as I am completely stuck and have no idea how to fix this problem.

Thanks!

loadlibrary( ) is used to call functions. I don't see any functions in your posted C code.

I tried to follow these steps: https://nl.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/41648-converting-matlab-struct-to-c-struct-and-access-byte-data

However I have not been succesfull in this yet

Do you know how i could make this work?

I get the error that the header file is not a valid Win32 application.

When I look for solutions it tells me that I need to install the 32bit version of matlab, however there must be a way to change my own created file into a compatible format right?

You need to compile your code as a 64 bit dll, otherwise you can't use it with MATLAB.

yeah i tried doing that with gcc -m64 however I still get the same error
