NAME

       Mat_CreateVer, Mat_Create — Creates a MATLAB MAT file.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <matio.h>

       mat_t *
       Mat_CreateVer(const char *matname, const char *hdr_str, enum mat_ft mat_file_ver);

       mat_t *
       Mat_Create(const char *matname, const char *hdr_str);

DESCRIPTION

       The  Mat_CreateVer() function creates a MATLAB MAT file opened for write access.  The hdr_str is a string
       written in the file header of MAT version 5 and 7.3 (HDF) files.  Only the first 128 bytes of the  string
       is written.  If hdr_str is NULL, then a default string is written that contains the platform, date, matio
       library version.

       The  mat_file_ver argument specifies the MAT file version to create.  The matio library can write version
       4 files (MAT_FT_MAT4), version 5 files (MAT_FT_MAT5), and  an  HDF5  file  format  introduced  in  MATLAB
       version 7.3 (MAT_FT_MAT73).

       The  Mat_Create()  function  is  equivalent  to  calling  Mat_CreateVer() with MAT_FT_DEFAULT as the file
       version.

EXAMPLES

       #include <stdlib.h>
       #include <stdio.h>
       #include "matio.h"

       int main(int argc, char **argv)
       {
           mat_t *matfp;

           matfp = Mat_CreateVer(argv[1], NULL, MAT_FT_73);
           if ( NULL == matfp ) {
               fprintf(stderr, "Error creating MAT file %s0, argv[1]);
               return EXIT_FAILURE;
           }

           Mat_Close(matfp);
           return EXIT_SUCCESS;
       }
