MLNewParameters()

unsigned long MLNewParameters(char* p, unsigned long rev, unsigned long apirev)
initializes an MLParameters object p and sets the MathLink revision number to the value specified by rev, and the MathLink API revision number to the value specified by apirev.

MORE INFORMATION

The MathLink revision number and the MathLink API revision number should be set to the the constants MLREVISION and MLAPIREVISION from mathlink.h.

MLNewParameters() does not allocate memory for the MLParameters object p.

MLNewParameters() returns rev on success or 0 if an error occurs.

MLNewParameters() is declared in the MathLink header file mathlink.h.
