MathLink C Function

MLGetInteger32()

int MLGetInteger32(MLINK link, int *i)
gets a 32-bit integer from the MathLink connection specified by link and stores it in i.
  • If the data on the link corresponds to a real number, MLGetInteger32() will round it to an integer.
  • If the data on the link corresponds to an integer too large to store in a C int on your computer system, then MLGetInteger32() will fail, and return 0.
  • MLGetInteger32() returns a nonzero value if the function succeeds.
  • Use MLError() to retrieve the error code if MLGetInteger32() fails.
  • MLGetInteger32() is declared in the MathLink header file mathlink.h.
