I am trying to call and debug matlab code via C/C++. i am able to run
the engdemo.c program but I cannot stop the debugger in a test MatLab
file to see if this can be done.

I would like the C/C++ program to spawn the MatLab environment so
that I may have access to all the MatLab debugging tools but be able
to read any inputs from the C/C++ calling function and return any
modifications to those values back to the C/C++ function as well.

I am running MatLab 6.5.1.199709 v 13. Does MatLab 7 have any added
capability that I would need to do this?

Look at Johnathan de Halleux's CMatlabEngine class

I made some progress, however when i attempt to set a breakpoint in
the Matlab code, i lose all keyboard control. I am able to see the
green arrow at the first line of the Matlab code but i can't step.
In the Matlab console that was created i lose control after I type a
single command i.e. dbstep. If i don't set a breakpoint in the code,
Matlab code executes properly and i have control both before and
after it executes. Any clues? thx in advance
