Hi!

Can we make any connection from NEURON to MatLab. say, use matlab command in a *.hoc file?

Hi!

I forget to say, i use WinXp, and MatLab 6.5

It is simpler if you can turn things around and have Matlab control NEURON. I presume Matlab can interact with a process via stdin/stdout and you would start NEURON with the string
nrniv -nogui -isatty

But if your project is conceptually simpler with Matlab controlled by NEURON then
you can have NEURON load the Java Virtual Machine (but you would need Java installed) and see c:/nrn59/lib/nrn.def with respect to telling NEURON where the JVM is. Then you can use the POpen.java, popen.hoc example as the idiom for launching a process that NEURON can communicate with through the processes stdin/stdout. If you decide to use the Java method, then send me an email and I'll give you the popen.zip file with the code.

Hello,

Adding to this thread, is there a way to call a Matlab user-defined function from .mod/ .hoc file? I am working on Neuron 7.7.2 and Matlab2019.

Thank you
