LhsVar (deprecated)
a C gateway function which specifies which parameters created inside the C gateway will be returned as an output argument into Scilab. This function is obsolete.
Calling Sequence
LhsVar(RankPos) = RankVar;
Arguments
- RankPos
- as integer providing the rank of the output argument 
- RankVar
- the rank of the parameter created inside the C gateway to be returned as an Scilab output argument 
Description
A C gateway function which specifies which variables created inside the C interface will be returned as an output argument into Scilab.
WARNING: This API is deprecated from Scilab 5.2.0 and is going to be removed with Scilab 6.0. Please use API Scilab (the new Scilab API).
Examples
This example takes a matrix of doubles as input and returns:
- the number of lines (first output argument) 
- the number of rows (second output argument) 
We create an intermediate Scilab parameter which will handle an integer but will neither be used nor returned as an output argument.
TODO: insert an example in the Scilab language
#include "stack-c.h" #include "api_scilab.h" int sci_mysizedouble(char * fname, unsigned long fname_len) { int m_in_row; int n_in_col; int *piAddr = NULL; double *pdblData = NULL; SciErr sciErr; sciErr = getVarAddressFromPosition(pvApiCtx, 1, &piAddr); if(sciErr.iErr) { printError(&sciErr, 0); return 0; } /* get dimensions */ sciErr = getMatrixOfDouble(pvApiCtx, piAddr, &m_in_row, &n_in_col, &pdblData); if(sciErr.iErr) { printError(&sciErr, 0); return 0; } sciErr = createMatrixOfInteger32(pvApiCtx, 2, 1, 1, &m_in_row); // the out_lines_pos parameter handles the number of lines of the matrix sent as argument sciErr = createMatrixOfInteger32(pvApiCtx, 3, 1, 1, &m_in_row); // store a mere value, but will neither be used nor returned to Scilab sciErr = createMatrixOfInteger32(pvApiCtx, 4, 1, 1, &n_in_col); // store a mere value, but will neither be used nor returned to Scilab LhsVar(1) = 2; // We set the parameter 2 as an output argument LhsVar(2) = 4; // We set the parameter 4 as an output argument PutLhsVar(); return 0; }
