Description

getNbOutputArgument provides a C gateway function which provides the number of output arguments present in the calling Scilab function. You must include api_scilab.h to benefit from this function.

Examples

In this example, the C gateway function can take several output arguments and prints in the Scilab console the integer corresponding to the number of output arguments detected in the calling Scilab function.

#include "api_scilab.h"
#include "sciprint.h"

int sci_mylhs(char * fname)
{
  sciprint("The number of output arguments is %d\n", *getNbOutputArgument());

  return 0;
}
