CheckLhs (deprecated)

C macro which checks the number of output arguments present in the calling Scilab function.

Calling Sequence

CheckLhs(nb_min_params,nb_max_params)

Arguments

:nb_min_params the minimum number of output arguments which must be

present in the calling Scilab function

: :nb_max_params the maximum number of output arguments which must be

present in the calling Scilab function

:

Description

C macro which checks the number of output arguments present in the calling Scilab function. You must include stack-c.h to benefit from this function.

If the number of arguments is not between nb_min_params and nb_max_params, we quit the C interface ( return 0;) and an error is returned in the Scilab console.

Since CheckLhs is doing a return 0; within the gateway function, it is important to call this macro before any memory allocation in order to avoid any memory leak.

WARNING: This API is deprecated from Scilab 5.2.0 and is going to be removed with Scilab 6.0. Please use API Scilab (the new Scilab API). This function has been replaced by CheckOutputArgument.
