NAME
Mat_VarReadInfo -- Read the information for a specific variable in a MAT- LAB MAT file.
SYNOPSIS
#include <matio.h> matvar_t * Mat_VarReadInfo(mat_t *mat, const char *name);
DESCRIPTION
The Mat_VarReadInfo() function reads the information for the variable name in the open MAT file.

EXAMPLES
#include "matio.h" int main(int argc,char **argv) { mat_t *matfp; matvar_t *matvar; matfp = Mat_Open(argv[1],MAT_ACC_RDONLY); if ( NULL == matfp ) { fprintf(stderr,"Error opening MAT file %s0,argv[1]); return EXIT_FAILURE; } matvar = Mat_VarReadInfo(matfp,"x"); if ( NULL != matvar ) { Mat_VarPrint(matvar); Mat_VarFree(matvar); } Mat_Close(matfp); return EXIT_SUCCESS; }
