get optional argument (Scilab gateway)
Syntax
int getOptionals(void* _pvCtx, char* fname, rhs_opts opts[])
Arguments
- _pvCtx
Scilab environment pointer, pass in "pvApiCtx" provided by api_scilab.h
- fname
Name of the calling function.
- opts
structure array of optional argument
Description
A C gateway functions which use optional arguments.
Examples
In this example, the C interface function can take several optional arguments and prints theirs dimensions if exists.
