mx and C enigne API

[Bernd Kalbfuss]

Hi John,

after so many postings about interprocess communication I am just 
puzzled. Simple question: is there any standard method available at the 
moment that allows to control octave from a different process? If yes: 
where is the documentation for it or where can I find some examples?
Since nobody responded to my last message I will just ask again: what 
about implementing the matlab mx and C engine API in octave? This would 
help in two ways: 1st it would make external matlab functions portable, 
2nd this could provide an easy interface for any application that wants 
to exchange data with octave. I would volunteer to do this. But I 
definitely need more information about the current status of the project.
