<p>Finds Matlab installations and provides Matlab tools and libraries to cmake.</p>
<p>This package first intention is to find the libraries associated with Matlab
in order to be able to build Matlab extensions (mex files). It can also be
used:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>run specific commands in Matlab</li>
<li>declare Matlab unit test</li>
<li>retrieve various information from Matlab (mex extensions, versions and
release queries, ...)</li>
</ul>
<p>The module supports the following components:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MX_LIBRARY</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ENG_LIBRARY</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MAT_LIBRARY</span></code>: respectively the MX,
ENG and MAT libraries of Matlab</li>
<li><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MAIN_PROGRAM</span></code> the Matlab binary program.</li>
<li><code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MEX_COMPILER</span></code> the MEX compiler.</li>

the path of the desired Matlab version. Otherwise, the behaviour is platform
specific:</p>
<ul class="simple">

paths in <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">/Application</span></code>. If no such application is found, it falls back
to the one that might be accessible from the PATH.</li>
<li>Unix: The desired Matlab should be accessible from the PATH.</li>

<p class="last">However, this is not sufficient in certain case, where for instance your
MEX file is linking against libraries that are already loaded by Matlab,
even if those libraries have different SONAMES.
A possible solution is to hide the symbols of the libraries to which the
