Oops... Should have pointed to http://www.mathworks.fr/help/matlab/matlab_external/matlab-data.html#f22000 instead, which details Matlab types. And mxOBJECT_CLASS is used to declare 'object' (below is an extract of matrix.h, matlab R2011b) : ************* /** * Enumeration corresponding to all the valid mxArray types. */ typedef enum { mxUNKNOWN_CLASS = 0, mxCELL_CLASS, mxSTRUCT_CLASS, mxLOGICAL_CLASS, mxCHAR_CLASS, mxVOID_CLASS, mxDOUBLE_CLASS, mxSINGLE_CLASS, mxINT8_CLASS, mxUINT8_CLASS, mxINT16_CLASS, mxUINT16_CLASS, mxINT32_CLASS, mxUINT32_CLASS, mxINT64_CLASS, mxUINT64_CLASS, mxFUNCTION_CLASS, mxOPAQUE_CLASS, mxOBJECT_CLASS, /* keep the last real item in the list */ #if defined(_LP64) || defined(_WIN64) mxINDEX_CLASS = mxUINT64_CLASS, #else mxINDEX_CLASS = mxUINT32_CLASS, #endif /* TEMPORARY AND NASTY HACK UNTIL mxSPARSE_CLASS IS COMPLETELY ELIMINATED */ mxSPARSE_CLASS = mxVOID_CLASS /* OBSOLETE! DO NOT USE */ } However, checking types in matlab R2012a : http://www.mathworks.fr/help/techdoc/apiref/mxclassid.html doesn't give an 'object' class anymore... I did not notice this version issue, and this probably partially answers the question : implementing this class is therefore not that desirable, since mex-based applications will have to get round this removal.
