I have a C++ code for doing the socket programming. I need to know how to compile the C++ file in Matlab. In the help file I came across the need for converting that as a mex file. I tried to execute the sample .cpp files given as examples but I keep getting the error "Matlabroot\R2008A\BIN\MEX.PL: Error: 'mexcpp.cpp' not found."

Can Someone brief me what I can do to implement socket programming in Matlab. 

Thanks,

Jai

I think you need to just get a simple mex routine running first, *then* worry about moving on to other things. What, exactly, did you type at the prompt when attempting to compile your test mex routine?

I used the command mex mexcpp.cp That is the command given in the help file to compile the code. 
Error I am getting is "matlabroot\R2008A\BIN\MEX.PL: Error: 'mexcpp.cpp' not found."
