Hi :
I'm trying to call imread with mexCallMATLAB but I always get the same error that can be ? .
error: argument of type "double" is incompatible with parameter of type "mxArray **"
The code  is this 
<code>
   double imag;
   mxArray *str = mxCreateString("letras.tif");
   mexCallMATLAB(1, &str, 1,imag, "imread");
   printf("%f \n",imag);
</code>

That's correct.  What's the signature that mexCallMATLAB expects?

http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/apiref/mexcallmatlab.html

Your fourth input argument is not of the correct type.  Look at the 
mexcallmatlab.c example file (the first file listed in the Examples section 
on that page) for an example of how to call mexCallMATLAB with inputs of the 
correct type.

Thanks Seteven:

I've solved, I used a mxArray but this makes me take another question as you can move from a  mxArray to double

Look at mxGetPr and/or mxGetData.

You need to post your code, not just the error messages.

I so sorry , i forget  the code sorry again, this is all the code 
URL: http://pastebin.com/sWKhXP8D 
Thx

Hi again :
the same problem  , all I want to do is to run the matlab function 
this is a C code http://pastebin.com/spaa98WZ  .
the only problem is to move from * mxArray to double and double a * mxArray.
The problem is this  http://pastebin.com/t7Gchf4M

e.g., this works (fres.c):

      #include "mex.h"
      void mexFunction( int nlhs, mxArray *plhs[],int nrhs, const mxArray *prhs[]){
       mxArray *theArray[9];
       mxArray *imagen_out[1];
if(!mxIsDouble(prhs[0])||!mxIsDouble(prhs[1])||!mxIsDouble(prhs[2])||!mxIsDouble(prhs[3])||!mxIsDouble(prhs[4])||!mxIsDouble(prhs[5])||!mxIsDouble(prhs [6])||!mxIsDouble(prhs[7])||!mxIsDouble(prhs[8])){
              mexErrMsgTxt("Must be called with a valid handle");
       }
       if( mexCallMATLAB(1, imagen_out, 9, prhs, "fresnel") ) {
              mexErrMsgTxt("fresnell function didn't work");
       }
       // imagen_out[0] has the result, use it here
       mxDestroyArray(imagen_out[0]);  // destroy it when done with it
      }

e.g., calling sequence:

>> fres(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)
Inside fresnel
    45

e.g., the fresnel.m file:

function out = fresnel(a1,a2,a3,a4,a5,a6,a7,a8,a9)
    out = a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 + a5 + a6 + a7 + a8 + a9;
    disp('Inside fresnel');
    disp(out);
end

Hi James Tursa
My fresnel function   doesn't make  exactly that, the problem is the cast type  between mxArray and double.  

this is a head of my function  :fresnel(imagen,l,z,tax,tay,fx,fy,n,m) and it returns a Imagen , all parameters it's double, the question is .
it's possible to convert a mxArray to double?.
Moreover i need to use a C function  no Matlab function
